Converting a string to a item code?

well since you are not able to use a string for creating an item.(which really sucks). i was wondering if there was a way to convert a string or an item to the item code name.(like the I00G thing.)

I'm not sure what you mean? You can always get the four letter code of an item-type by viewing it in the object editor and pressing ctrl+D.

You can use strings to create items... You just need to convert them to integer first -.-

Yes, but doing this directly on the ASCII ('I000') type doesnt work. You need to make it a real integer first, then you can do S2I and create the item.

Creating items using 'I000' works.....

Converting the string "I000" doesnt

nope :P " != '

so... ;) my point: first create a "normal" integer out of it else it wont work :)
