OnPlayerOpenContainer

A player wants to open a container - return false to refuse.

Nothing has opened yet. Return false and the container stays shut for them. Otherwise their client’s loot window opens on the record’s contents (GetContainerItems) and they hold the container until they close it.

Syntax

function OnPlayerOpenContainer(pid, key)
  -- ...
end

Parameter	Type
pid	number	the player
key	string	the container’s level name

Returns

false refuses; anything else lets them open it

Example

function OnPlayerOpenContainer(pid, key)
  if IsPlayerInZone(pid, arena) then return false end     -- no rummaging mid-duel
end
