Well of course you say but you can do interesting things with that.

Code: Select all

	<!ENTITY itBaseLaser	      "0xD0050002"/>
	<!ENTITY itBaseKinectic		"0xD0050003"/>
	<!ENTITY itBaseparticle		"0xD0050004"/>
	<!ENTITY itBaseblast		   "0xD0050005"/>
	<!ENTITY itBaseion		     "0xD0050006"/>
	<!ENTITY itBasethermo	  	"0xD0050007"/>
Then you can just get the UNID and subtract one from it and get the UNID for the next or previous UNID or even circle them. You can even make a function that randomly skips around in there (might need the start and end though).
Crying is not a proper retort!

Periculi gets it Ttech the point was not a specific example but how in general you can use the fact that the UNID are numbers and can be manipulated as such to do various things. The list like actions is just the most obvious use.
Its a teaching post. :D
