Adding Lootable Containers
You'll be able to create lootable containers, such as chests and barrels by simply dragging the desired container to your level from type tree.
- After dragging it to your level, take a look at the object's properties. If it doesn't have a GameInventoryComponent (ChestGameInventoryComponent), you're going to need to add it by yourself.
- Right-click the object and select: Add component.
- This component makes objects lootable.
- Now, the component has a property called InventoryContents where you'll be able to add the loot items you want.
Crafting
Crafting in Shadwen is very simple. All you need is a recipe (If you dont have any already crafted items in your inventory, a recipe can be set as a loot item as well) and the needed crafting materials.
- Crafting happens in your inventory window. Click open your inventory by clicking the "I" key, and select a recipe from your slotbar.
- The recipe has an empty slot for every needed material. Drag the materials from your inventory to those slots.
All lootable crafting materials can be found from the type tree.

- In the beginning of the playable Shadwen Rope Target tutorial level, Shadwen doesn't have a Grappling Hook equipped. It has been disabled by using a RopeDisablerAreaEntity (set above the Mission Start Checkpoint). This Disabler Entity can be simply dragged to the level from the type tree.

InventoryManager
If your level has lots of items in it, it can get a tad annoying to keep an eye on all of them all the time. For these situations we have a tool called InventoryManager to help you out.
InventoryManager keeps a track of all the recipes, materials and containers you have in your level. It separately lists how many recipes and crafting materials (called Reagents in the manager) you have in the level and in which treasure chests they are in.
You can find the InventoryManager from the Scene Instances view (View -> Scene Instance Tree). Under the DefaultScene "Scene" select the one titled "InventoryManager" and open its properties (Ctrl+P). Note that the InventoryManager can only be accessed from the editor view!
Inside the properties all the good stuff is found in GameInventoryManagerComponent. All the things inside are neatly organized and numbered, with the number of the item matching the number of the container it is in. ie Recipe 0 will be inside RecipeContainer 0 and so on.
If you wish to locate an object listed here inside the level, right click on the wanted item and select Locate GUID. This will bring you to the item and highlight it.
InventoryManager will automatically be brought to the level when you add items into your level.
