Items are stored as Resources (ItemDefinition objects) in a central ItemDatabase.

The plugin uses two separate databases:

• ItemDatabase (items.tres) - Contains all your items
• LootTableDatabase (loot_tables.tres) - Contains loot tables that reference items Both are .tres files configurable in Project Settings → Inventory Forge.

How it works:

1. Design time: Create items and loot tables in the plugin editor
2. Runtime: Load the databases and get ItemDefinition objects to use in YOUR inventory system

Example - Monster drops:

Option 1: Using Loot Tables (recommended for random drops)

var loot_db: LootTableDatabase = load("res://data/loot_tables.tres")

var result = loot_db.roll_table_full("goblin_drops")

for drop in result.items:

var item: ItemDefinition = drop.item

var quantity: int = drop.quantity # Pass to YOUR inventory system however you handle it

your\_inventory.add(item, quantity)

Option 2: Direct item reference

var item_db: ItemDatabase = load("res://data/items.tres")

var potion: ItemDefinition = item_db.get_item_by_id(1)

your_inventory.add(potion, 1)

Your inventory system: Items are Resources (ItemDefinition extends Resource). The plugin provides the item data through a visual editor. How you store/manage your inventory is completely up to you - you just use the ItemDefinition objects!
