Summary

I looked around for a tutorial on this and even a plugin but no luck, hopefully this workaround will solve some issues but it's not perfect. I bet Yanfly will be creating an Item Limit plugin in the future at some point but for now here's a simple common event to get those of us who want that kind of thing by. Spoiler First you'll need to create the item you want to limit, in my case it was Iron Ore but anything that's already there is just as good....

Next you'll need to create a common event

1. Set up the Variable

2. Next you'll need to create a conditional branch that will take notice when your number of Iron Ore goes above 20

3. The next step is filling in the details below which are pretty simple. Just make text that says you can't carry that much of x item and decrease it's value by one. Receiving the item in bulk causes the script to repeat until the number is reduced to the one you specify but it should never be more than 2 or 3.

It's as easy as doing the same for other items you want to limit or even making a carry basket of some sort so that the item can't even be picked up the first place unless they have it...

Like I said this is a simple workaround until Yanfly or someone else works on a better way but I can't Jave Script to save my life so I settled with this.

Hope this helps some people and if you have questions I'm happy to answer them
