Script for Interchanging Items between seperate parties

[Neoend]

Looking for a script or snippet that would allow for items to be traded or switched between parties with separate inventories.
If any more details are needed I will do my best to post on time.

Are you using a script with separate inventories?  Because I don't remember RMXP being able to do that by default.

EDIT: well, assuming you didn't have any scripts, this is what I would do:

class Game_Party
  alias initialize_splititems_later initialize
  def initialize
    @items_split = {}
  end
  # switches to the items of the other party
  def switch_items
    tempitems = @items_split
    @items_split = @items
    @items = tempitems
  end
  # current: true if trading from the current party to the inactive party,
  #         false if trading from the inactive party to the current party.
  # itemid: ID of item in database
  # n: number of item to trade
  def trade(current, item_id, n)
    switch_items if !current
    lose_item(item_id, n)
    switch_items
    gain_item(item_id, n)
    switch_items if current
  end
end

pasting this below the default scripts, you have two new script calls:
$game_party.switch_items, which switches the active inventory every time you switch from the first party to the second.
$game_party.trade(current, item_id, n), which trades items between the parties.

Thanks Winkio! And I had been using the game_party trick from the 'Blizzard's Little Tricks' tutorial.
Anyway, I'll get right to implementing this

If you want the trade method for the way it works in Blizzard's tricks:

class Game_Party
  # var_from: id of variable with the party that the item is being taken from
  # var_to: id of variable with the party that the item is being given to
  # itemid: ID of item in database
  # n: number of item to trade
  def trade(var_from, var_to, item_id, n)
    $game_variables[var_from].lose_item(item_id, n)
    $game_variables[var_to].gain_item(item_id, n)
  end
end

It doesn't matter which party is active as long as you are storing them in separate variables.
