Money Pouch and Tool Belt.

Improvements

There’s little that can’t be accomplished with some hard capital and a sturdy set of tools, and with this foundation in mind we’ve introduced some much-requested usability improvements in the Money Pouch and Tool Belt.

At the bottom of the mini-map interface, you’ll notice a small icon depicting a pile of coins. From now on, coins can be stored here rather than in your inventory, if you would prefer. You can right-click coins to add them to the money pouch from your inventory. Remember that coins are safe from being dropped on death unless they are in your inventory when you die in the Wilderness.

The tool belt icon can be found in the bottom right of your equipped inventory interface. Most tools can be added to this belt, so they can be used whenever you need them without taking up inventory space.

To add a tool to the belt, right-click on it from your inventory. For certain tools, such as pickaxes and hatchets, only a bronze item can be stored. While the tool belt won’t replace your shiny dragon gear, it is great for performing varied skilling tasks on the fly. We’ll be adding functionality to this in the future, including support for Dungeoneering.

LSD there was a thread made earlier in this section explaining what they are but yes please nokk could you cope/paste the info from JAGEX and put it in a quote box and also link to the page?

@everyone: this update break anything for us? I'm sure once again a bunch of easy quick fixes will do the job if needed. Someone should also get to making functions for these to be added to SRL!

Whoa, there are more 1-click actions now too.

Ex: Gems can be crafted with left click.

Nothing at all needs to be changed from what I can see. Coin pouch icon is next to the minimap, but location of all previous stuff around minimap seems to be same.
The tool-belt is in the equipped tab, it shifted over the equipment stats, price checker, and keep on death buttons but I don't think SRL even uses those.

I so far I'm only allowed to put a BRONZE pickaxe in my toolbelt, but not rune?! D:

It only hold BRONZE Pickaxe or Hatchet…

So do I.
Also when you put coins in your pouch and buy stuff at the GE it says the red message 'you have no coins' but you can still buy stuff like normal, just a little glitch they need to take care of.

And yea WTF bronze only… I'm trying to fill up my belt with all F2P items! Very convenient!

Looks like the minimap dot colours have changed. White dots have more of a shade than usual and bankers are now a yellowish-green colour.

Hmm really? They look the same to me.
Go to mapwalk.scar and try testing CountDots functions to see if it still works.

Good updates, I'm really impressed. The belt will be very useful for saving bank and inventory space. The days of forgetting tools at bank are over :D As for the money pouch, you can basically carry all your money around without the worry of losing it :)

YoHoJo

2011-12-06 12:14:45

Yeah very very good update. Cool to always have money and random tools with you on hand instead of buying at GE/taking up bank space, I like it overall too!

Monsters on the main screen and item dtms on inventory…?
Nothing about that seems to have changed at all….
DTMs should work just fine (but sometimes in inventory items have a deformed outline) and try picking better colors for monsters.

Monsters on the main screen and item dtms on the ground all can't be matched!
I had made new DTMs for them but still ….
I've got no idea
but my script had been running very well but got broken after the latest update .

When adding items to the tool belt, does it increase your players weight?

I was going to check that but never did. I'd assume it does not, otherwise it would be completely pointless to even put anything in it if you weighed so much with all the stuff in it, so my guess is no.

I think I've officially quit this game today. This update is so full of crap - money pouch and toolbelt? Is this preschool? Now the game just got even easier. Wasn't easy enough for the ten year olds? Seriously, they ruin every aspect of achievement. They switch to mainstream graphics, horrible music, and game play that is at a toddler's level. Also, before anyone tells me that I don't have to use either: Money pouch is so USELESS. There's no clear way to tell how much GP you have, you can't choose whether you want to withdrawl to your inv or to the pouch. The toolbelt's items are not lost upon death, granting more "safety." No, I don't have to use it, but why do I need to see the cluttered equipment tab?

The icon for shops seems to change on the minimap randomly now. It'll be in one spot when I use the MSI mining script at Lumbridge West Swamp, and then when I leave and come back it'll change spots, throwing SPS off a little bit.

Also, NPC's now seem to show up as orange dots rather than yellow. And banking is broken. Which I have no doubt the talented developers in this community will fix easily soon enough :) you guys rock.

I've noticed that MM icon thing a couple of days ago. Really isn't too much of a change.

2011-12-06 18:34:59

Oh okay, I guess I'm just noticing it now because the script was working this morning. Whatever changes were implemented JUST today changed banking. And I'm assuming it's a very simple fix, just another annoying Jagex delaying effort :)

I can confirm that the belt is weightless. I have mine full and am at 0kg of weight.

wow so basically the money pouch is a "portable bank" for only money? You don't lose it when you die etc? I LOVE IT!

Simply put your tools in your inventory first, then right-click and add them to the toolbelt. Once the items are added, they remain there and cannot be retrieved. Upon death, all items in the toolbelt are retained. This is true even when the player is skulled or dies in the wilderness.


OMG that is so awesome!

what if you put a rune hatchet in there and then want to upgrade to a dragon hatchet and you can't sell your old one O_O?

They made it so any level 3 who joined can powerlevel after they get there items :/ it's only good for the tinderbox function, crafting ( no idea if they accept strings if it matters reli) so for f2p only good in helping crafting,smithing(with hammer), and makes it easier for trading? When people gamble they can use the money pouch :D they need withdraw all feature and turn off feature cuz sometimes I like my money in my invent :p

Very cool update in my opinion. I think the reason for only bronze items in the tool belt is because it's meant to help people with quests and other things where the need for a tool might come as a surprise (usually forcing the person to run back to a bank), it's not meant to make skilling and power leveling more efficient. At least that's how I see it.

tico2

2011-12-07 16:32:02

I don't mind the tool belt being for only bronze stuff so it's not totally "overpowered", but is still useful for quest etc. The only thing that bothers me is when you want to buy something from the ge, you take the money from my bank and it puts it in the pouch. Then you have to put it out of the pouch so you can actually buy stuff. I guess I'll just have to get used to having all the cash with me all the time to avoid pointless clicking :p

Recursive

2011-12-07 16:47:58

Umm you don't have to take it out of your pouch to buy stuff. You just have to have enough cash on you to buy wat eva it is you are trying to buy

You do have to take out money from to pouch to buy goods, at least in the GE. Don't know about general stores, but I never use NPC shops anyway so it makes no difference to me. I believe Jagex will fix it so you can pay straight from the pouch in the near future, I'm sure there are people whining about this to them already.

2011-12-07 21:33:02

No, you can buy straight from the GE. It says you don't have enough money, but you can safely ignore that.
