Picks up / interacts with an equipment slot.

PickupInventoryItem(slotId)

Arguments

slotId

number : InventorySlotId

Details

If the cursor is empty, then it will attempt to pick up the item in the slotId.

If the cursor has an item, then it will attempt to equip the item to the slotId and place the previous slotId item (if any) where the item on cursor orginated.

If the cursor is in repair or spell-casting mode, it will attempt the action on the slotId.

You can use GetInventorySlotInfo to get the slotId:

Example

/script PickupInventoryItem(GetInventorySlotInfo("MainHandSlot"))
/script PickupInventoryItem(GetInventorySlotInfo("SecondaryHandSlot"))

The above attempts a main hand/off-hand weapon swap. It will pick up the weapon from the main hand and then pick up the weapon from the off-hand, attempting to equip the main hand weapon to off-hand and sending the off-hand to main hand if possible.
