I cant create issues in tfs repo for some reason so there comes my request that somebody can create an issue for me
The suggestion is to move 100% of the code responsible for loot in monsters should be moved either 100% to c++ or 100% to lua right now its like 50/50.
What im talking about here is a part of loot droping from c++
C++:
github.com
I might not understood it 100% since the code is split out so much its a mishmash in my head so i explain it how i understand it please correct me if wrong.
The main things i want to focus inside this function is that we grab tile and corpse looktype of a creature and calling the on death event (thats when we jump to lua) and then droploot is called which calles again an event ? (this is the part that confuses me since loot items are actually created in lua ?)
Lua:
github.com
And here is where the loot is created (with some additional stuff)
The process of trying to change how loot works was a little painful to understand so thats where the request of moving 100% of the loot drop system into either C++ or LUA.
I believe its a good issue proposition, so could somebody open an actual issue inside tfs repo ?
