Question [outdated] could GetCollectibleNickname return nil instead of ""?
Hey there,

could GetCollectibleNickname(collectibleId) return nil instead of an empty string, or would that break the UI?
it's far more convenient to write
Lua Code:
  1. local name = GetCollectibleNickname(collectibleId) or GetCollectibleName(collectibleId)
instead of
Lua Code:
  1. local name = GetCollectibleNickname(collectibleId)
  2. if name == "" then GetCollectibleName(collectibleId) end
