how to get the type of an item?

[Rickster]

there is a function to compare the type of an item to a string, which returns a boolean:

Code: Select all

item:isType("xxx")

is there a way to get the type of an item?

i tried these, which both do not work

Code: Select all

item:getType()
item.Type

is there a place i can find informations like that?

[lisa]

item:isType is a function in micromacro/rom/classes/item.lua

Code: Select all

function CItem:isType(typename)

there is also this

Code: Select all

function CItem:getTypes()

which you would use like this.

Code: Select all

for slot, item in pairs(inventory.BagSlot) do
local itemtype, itemsubtype, itemsubsubtype = item:getTypes()
--some code stuff here to use the info
end
