RE: How to reference the spawn item

While characters do have the spawnitem property, items don't have it.

So an alternative to foritems, could be to use lastnewitem property of the server object, a tag and the @timer trigger of t_spawn_item.

Code:

[TYPEDEF t_spawn_item]

ON=@Timer

ref1 = <serv.lastnewitem>

ref1.tag.spawnSource = <uid> //hold the uid of the spawner

Maybe this alternative is a risky one, i don't know if <serv.lastnewitem> is reliable when a lot of item will be created in a live server !

Best way will be to ask to put spawnitem property for items too Tongue

Edit : I notice that if the spawnable item is stackable, assigning a tag in this way will cause an error (because it got stacked, so the uid will be changed i think)
