Some problems adapting new code to old repo.

[Lemke]

Hello guys,trying to do it correctly but getting problems with a code,here is the code:

private void LinkSpecialItems(Mobile m)
        {
            var boxItems = FindItemsByType(typeof(DonationDyeTub), true);

            if (boxItems != null)
            {
                foreach (var item in boxItems)
                {
                    if (item is DonationDyeTub dt)
                    {
                        if (dt.Owner == null)
                            dt.Owner = m;
                    }

                }
            }
        }

Error im getting is:

Custom / Donations / Mystery boxes / BaseMysteryBox.cs:
    CS1026: Line 56: Expected)
    CS1002: Line 56: Expected;
    CS1525: Line 56: The term of the expression ')' is not valid
    CS1002: Line 56: Expected;

Any advice?Thank you!!!

You need to create a list variable not var
I can't tell from that code snippet exactly what you are trying to do but to create a list you use something like:

List<Item> list = ((Container)dropped).Items;
    if (list.Count > 0)
    {
        foreach (Item item in boxItems)
            {
                if (item is DonationDytub)
                {
                     DonationDytub dt = (DonationDytub)item;
                    dt.Owner = m;
                }
            }
    }

something like that anyway!

Look at the SalvageBag script also. that has a nice example of manipulating a list of items in a container

var is fine, but I am not sure wich line is 56, if I had to guess it would be

if (item is DonationDyeTub dt)

and that would suggest he is using an older version of C# than the code that is applied there

That's above my pay grade
