[MV] Scripts in Show Text using Variables

[ccarmine]

Hi everyone, i'd like the event to say the name of the weapon i have equipped.

//in the event page
I save the script in a variable:
V002 = $gameActors.actor(1).equips()[0]
and then in the show text i put -> \v[2]

Spoiler: Event Page

but when i'm in game it gives me the text [object Object] instead of (in this case) Dagger.

Spoiler: In game

Also, the character is dual wield, so i do similar things for the second weapon:
V003 = $gameActors.actor(1).equips()[1]
and in the show text -> \v[3], but it gives me the same thing.

I can't figure it out. Can someone please help me?
Thanks for reading.

PS. This is my first post, if i've done something wrong, let me know.

The problem is that the equips() function returns the actual Game_Item object that represents the weapon: you'd need to do $gameActors.actor(1).equips()[0].name

Use this: $gameActors.actor(1).equips()[0].name
Edit: ooh I was late by a few seconds

Thank you guys!

The problem is that the equips() function returns the actual Game_Item object that represents the weapon:

Just noting that it returns the database object, not the Game_Item object which is just a tiny wrapper with a type and an ID.

Fair point, but my solution stands.

Yes, that's why I cut the solution out of my quote.
