This script has a single function: to return a custom description for every
|
|
|
|
vanilla item in the game.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If "raw/scripts/item-descriptions.lua" exists, it will entirely replace this one.
|
2015-05-26 04:58:16 -06:00
|
|
|
Instead, mods should use "raw/scripts/more-item-descriptions.lua" to add content or replace
|
2015-03-31 17:23:09 -06:00
|
|
|
descriptions on a case-by-case basis. If an item description cannot be found in
|
|
|
|
the latter script, view-item-info will fall back to the former.
