Item class
On Vket Cloud, each non-Player objects on the world are defined as Items.
Items can be output to the scene by placing and configuring game objects with components added by VketCloudSDK, such as VKC Item Field and VKC Item Object.
The Item class is used to manipulate the above-mentioned Item in HeliScript.
You can retrieve an instance of the Item class by calling functions such as hsItemGet().
Item class has various methods to operate the obtained Item object.
How to get Item class object from component
The Item class object held by the component is obtainable by making the following call from the method in the component.
Item myItem = hsItemGet("Item name");
Calling hsItemGetSelf() will obtain the Item instance of the script's current component.
Item myitem = hsItemGetSelf();
Item utility functions
hsItemGet
Item hsItemGet(string itemName)
Global Function. Gets an Item by the specified name.
hsItemGetSelf
Item hsItemGetSelf()
Global function. Gets the Item object of where this component itself is attached, by calling this function in the component's constructor, or methods such as Update, OnClickNode, etc.
Methods
Equals
public bool Equals(Item obj)
Judges whether this class is identical to the argument obj.
When obtaining Item objects using hsItemGet(), etc., a different instance may be obtained despite being the same Item. For checking identity, use Equals() instead of "===" operator.
Available object types for this method
GetName
public string GetName()
Get the name of the Item.
Available object types for this method
SetPos
public void SetPos(Vector3 pos)
Move Item to the designated position.
Available object types for this method
GetPos
public Vector3 GetPos()
Get the local position of Item.
If this Item is inside a VKC Item Activity, the obtained value will be the coordinates relative to the VKC Item Activity.

Regardless of where this Item is located (inside or outside of a VKC Item Activity), it always returns the coordinates in world space.
Warning
Use this method when you want to obtain world coordinates in the case of an Activity.
If it is not an Activity, use GetPos for most of the time.
