itype id class?

return DataManager.isItem(item) && item.itypeId === 1;On this block of code above, I noticed that I can check the item's type. However, I searched itypeID but I only see implementations of it. I want to learn how to add more types for my weapons, how do you do add more values to itypeID because normally it only has 1 and 2 as default when checked.

As far as I know, itypeID, atypeID and wtypeID are types of items, armor, and weapons (respectively) that can be changed in Database -> Types

Except that you can't change item types. Why would you, though?

EDIT : There's also stypeID for skill types, that can also be changed

I was thinking of making different types, but they be displayed on a list of categories in the windows, and was thinking how to do it. So when they have that category, they will be displayed in a separate window.

1 = regular item

2 = key item

3 = hidden item type A

4 = hidden item type B

I'm not sure what the hidden item types are all about (maybe they took that from the people who used key items for quests?)

It's just a number, not a class or instantiated object or anything.  If you want more item types, it's just a matter of making more numbers.  But you'd probably have to use notes to implement them, and would need to change the scenes that display categories, to have more categories.

I did something like that in RGSS3...

It's not that hard to do the reading of categories, but you must make your own item scene, etc.

Reading of categories I did through reading notetags and matching regular expressions.

For example, you have an item and if you want to make it belong to some category you would put <category: 1> where 1 is category iD, and categories are defined in an array.

Now, if you want custom categories in MV, you could switch <category: 1> with <category: categoryName>

That will complicate things a bit, but will be more noob-friendly...

Now, I'm pretty sure you have no idea what some of sentences or words above mean. Can you tell me which ones?

Hmmm, right now I can catch up to your idea. Lemme do some reading and check on the default sripts and see what I can do
