How can I check what my item name is in inventory?

[Putmalk]

Through script.

Code: (Select All)

    RemoveItem(asItem);
    GiveItem("chemical_container_1", "chemical_container.ent", "ChemicalContainer", "chemical_container.tga", 0);

I only ask because that "chemical_container_1" that's generated under specific circumstances isn't working on the callbacks that have "chemical_container_1".

Let me explain how the bug occurs:

You place 4 items on a machine, place an empty container on the machine. (this container can be picked up and retrieved, this works fine).

Activate the machine, the container becomes Ineffective acid.

You can dump this acid in a drain to become an empty container again (that little snippet of code).

When you place the container on the machine again and pick it up, the item you receive isn't working on the intended objects.

Should I post the entire code of how it works? It is lengthy.

---

Here's the monstrosity of code.

I found where the issue occurs: When you drain the chemicals and get a new chemical_container_1, when you place the container on the table it doesn't give it the correct name. I'm trying to find out why...

Code: (Select All)

//drainage

void InteractDrain(string &in asEntity)
{
    SetMessage("Interact", "11_DrainChemicals", 0);
}

void SpillChemicals(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
    if(asItem == "chemical_container_good")
    {
        SetMessage("Interact", "11_NoDrainGood", 0);
        return;
    }

    SetMessage("Interact", "11_ChemicalsDrained", 0);

    RemoveItem(asItem);
    GiveItem("chemical_container_1", "chemical_container.ent", "ChemicalContainer", "chemical_container.tga", 0);
}
