Asks the server to move an item (or part of a stack) from one item location to another.<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
RequestMoveItem(sourceLocation, sourceSlot, destinationLocation, destinationSlot, count)<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Arguments ==<br />
;sourceLocation : <code>number</code> – Where the item is now. A <code>GameData.ItemLocs</code> value (the stock UI uses the matching <code>Cursor.SOURCE_*</code> constants).<br />
;sourceSlot : <code>number</code> – Slot of the item in <code>sourceLocation</code>, starting at 1.<br />
;destinationLocation : <code>number</code> – Where the item should go. A <code>GameData.ItemLocs</code> value.<br />
;destinationSlot : <code>number</code> – Slot in <code>destinationLocation</code>. The stock UI passes <code>GameData.Inventory.FIRST_AVAILABLE_INVENTORY_SLOT</code> or <code>GameData.Inventory.FIRST_AVAILABLE_BANK_SLOT</code> to let the item go to the first free slot.<br />
;count : <code>number</code> – Number of items to move from the stack.<br />
<br />
== Returns ==<br />
Nothing.<br />
<br />
== Details ==<br />
* Accepted locations:<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
! Location !! As source !! As destination<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.EQUIPPED</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.INVENTORY</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.BANK</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.QUEST_ITEM</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.CRAFTING_ITEM</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.CURRENCY_ITEM</code> || yes || yes<br />
|-<br />
| <code>GameData.ItemLocs.INVENTORY_OVERFLOW</code> || yes || no<br />
|}<br />
: Any other location (for example a guild vault) makes the call do nothing.<br />
* With <code>INVENTORY_OVERFLOW</code> as the source, nothing is sent if the overflow holds no item.<br />
* While the client's inventory lock flag is set, moves from or to <code>EQUIPPED</code> are not sent. The same flag blocks [[API:AutoEquipItem|AutoEquipItem]].<br />
* The client does not check that the source slot holds an item, that the destination is free, or that the item fits there. The server decides.<br />
* The function needs at least five arguments and only reads the last five.<br />
<br />
== Errors ==<br />
None besides the generic ''Invalid Parameters'' message when an argument is not a number.<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
Moving an item from the cursor into the bank, from <code>default/ea_bankwindow/source/bankwindow.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
RequestMoveItem( Cursor.Data.Source, Cursor.Data.SourceSlot, Cursor.SOURCE_BANK, slot, Cursor.Data.StackAmount )<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Unequipping an item into the first free backpack slot, from <code>default/ea_characterwindow/source/characterwindow.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
RequestMoveItem( Cursor.SOURCE_EQUIPMENT, slot, Cursor.SOURCE_INVENTORY, CharacterWindow.FIRST_AVAILABLE_INVENTORY_SLOT, CharacterWindow.equipmentData[slot].stackCount)<br />
</pre><br />
