This mod 100% requires Norbyte's Script Extender here.
In the Vanilla Game, player characters can continuously open their inventory and drop items onto the map during a combat turn. This is clearly not a reasonable design according to the core rules.Therefore, this mod has been created to adjust the gameplay mechanics and lay the groundwork for future modifications, such as the Rogue's 'Fast Hands' feature.
Changelog, Tested Content, and Effects:
• Dropping Items with Action Points: Opening the inventory to select "Drop" or dragging items into the map will consume action points. • Dropping without Action Points: If there are no action points, the item will automatically return to the original inventory. Multiple items will also be returned in full. • Throwing and Dropping Logic: Throwing and dropping items follow the same logic (based on the throw action's drop mechanism). This can even result in normal damage to enemies or other events, such as a potion bottle shattering. • Throwing Weapons: Tested and unaffected by the above operations. Some items can be considered as temporary thrown weapons.
New updates: • Items cannot be sent to other teammates during combat turns. They can be thrown or dropped on the ground for others to pick up. Picking up items does not consume any action resources. (Known issue: If sending an item that a teammate already has in their inventory, it is currently not possible to prevent this action. Since this behavior does not trigger MoveFromTo, I have tried for several hours but feel that the cost is too high and have temporarily set it aside. A potentially better approach might be to handle the listening for stacked items or explore other methods.)
Un-tested Content and Potential Improvements/Bugs:
Characters with Extra Attacks: Need to test the resolution of multiple attacks and throwing/discarding actions.
Subclass Bonus Actions for Throwing: Need to verify if throwing using subclass bonus actions works as intended.
Splitting items
Sending items to other in the inventory
Picking up
Some ideas for the next update:
Picking up items costs movement speed:The amount consumed is related to the number or weight of the items.Picking up a large number of items will use up the movement speed.
Implementation Plan (Keep It Short)
The main approach is to handle the SE Listen "DroppedBy" event to deduct the character's Action Points, if applicable.
However, since throwing actions also trigger "DroppedBy," it was necessary to handle all throw-related actions (unfortunately, but necessary).
Key events being Listen include OnStartCarrying, OnThrown, UsingSpell, and several others.

If other mod authors have better implementation ideas or suggestions, I welcome any feedback and discussion.
Special thanks go to the following mods and their authors:
In fact, I have heavily referenced the functionalities of the above mods and attempted to make them compatible within this mod. I am not sure if this behavior touches on licensing issues. If there is any infringement, I hope it can be pointed out promptly, and the author will make the necessary adjustments. Compatibility:
The mentioned mods have been integrated with mine. I will continue to update and improve aspects related to Action Resource in the future.
Additionally, my mod declares support for all non-commercial applications and sharing. Thank you!
I would like to express my special gratitude to each of you once again. Your work is truly amazing! Especially since I'm not good at English, I can't communicate with you all better: D
