GetItemDescriptor() struct.Name and struct.Desc

[Mithril]

When using GetItemDescriptor() to create items, setting the Name or Desc member of the descriptor struct has no impact on the created item. No name is given to the item except what may already be in the tile data for the graphic of the item. Would be nice if this worked

Yes.. this problem alas exists since a long time...

Mind testing something for me, before I look at this? (think I found a bug involving something with names/desc anyway).

Create an item that is stackable. Rename it to whatever you want. Create the same item again. Does it stack on the renamed item? Does it take the name of the Renamed item? If so, that is a bug, and hence one reason why the .desc might have been ignored with the GetItemDescriptor().

Let me know, and I'll fix it, plus look into the GetItemDescriptor() change.

btw, i mean as it is created, it adds it to the stack (Using CreateItemInBackpack() to make the item, etc)

Also, be SURE to use GetItemDescription() to create the item with it (do not just use the objtype by itself).

Below is an example script:

Ha, tested this using the latest 097 core.

If I create an item, and rename it to, say, "an item" - and create another one, it adds up into the stack and the stack will still be named as "an item".

If I edit the desc in struct GetItemDescriptor() returns before it is passed to CreateItemInBackpack(), it will have no effect in the actual item created.

Bug still exists.
