Classification: Equipment?

I think this function should be in the Item Management page, not the Equipment page. Although it does return a diverse type of equipments, it also tells you about types that are not equipments (familiar larva, mp restore, etc.). I think to_slot() is sufficient for determining exactly what kind of equipment an item is (excluding shields). --PhilmASTErpLus 03:02, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

• Quite right. Even the code sample involves booze and food. In a related vein, what's with the special note that it always returns an empty string for non-equipment? It returns an empty string for some non-equipment (black pixel, clown skin, divine noisemaker), but not others (sugar shard, lemon, pine wand, barrrnacle) --Bale 05:59, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

• Bale, I'm pretty sure I copy-pasta'd that from previous info. As for a list... is this by chance on the Coldfront wiki somewhere? If so, we should just link to that, as maintaining such a list is probably beyond what can be expected on this site. --StDoodle (#1059825) 07:56, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

• Poking around a bit. I found Item Types, but mafia does not support all those item types. Combat items for instance return a blank string. I think Heeheehee pulled that info out of the source. --Bale 08:28, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
