Renaming item health to item damage - xoft - 06-20-2012
Hi all,
I believe it would be a change for the better to rename cItem:m_ItemHealth to cItem:m_ItemDamage. Because that's what the value really is - a value of 0 specifies an undamaged item and increasing the number degrades the item.
I believe I can make the change incremental - first add the m_ItemDamage variable, providing the same value as m_ItemHealth, and then later remove the m_ItemHealth variable, when the plugins have adjusted.

Yea, you can even use a union
Code:
union
{
short m_ItemDamage, m_ItemHealth;
};And they will be the same thing

I'm not sure if tolua would eat that, I was planning on renaming it in C++ and adding the m_ItemHealth binding to ManualBindings. But hey, if it works this simply, why not?

This works, because ToLua does not need to know about the union
