Carrying Behaviour
While physically carrying a fixture, the player is restricted from performing several normal inventory actions.
The carried fixture conceptually occupies both hands.
While carrying a fixture, the player cannot freely:
- Change hotbar slots
- Use the offhand
- Open normal containers
- Perform normal inventory interactions
The fixture must instead be:
- Placed at a valid world position
- Mounted on a valid support
- Loaded into a compatible open flight case, when a matching case exists
This creates a more technician-oriented fixture handling workflow for Survival servers and roleplay environments.
Carried Fixture Data
When a fixture is directly picked up and later placed again, TRP preserves the fixture’s complete block-entity data.
This can include:
- Theatrical Network
- DMX Universe
- DMX Address
- Fixture Mode
- Fixture configuration
- Installed serviceable gobos
- Other fixture-specific persistent data
Direct physical carrying therefore preserves substantially more information than storing a fixture inside a flight case.
