GetItemLinkItemType and SpecializedItemType

kendaron · 08/01/16, 10:03 PM

One of the changes recently made in the api was for a specialized item type to be returned from GetItemLinkItemType()

Whenever I call the GetItemLinkItemType() function with a link to a food or drink item., I always get '0' returned for SpecializedItemType

Has anyone used this function successfully?

Looks like it's bugged right now. Tooltips use the same method in the ESO UI source code, and right now all tooltips are returning just "Food" or "Drink" instead of the specialized type.

I submitted a /bug in-game and added it to the forums:

Specialized item type didn't exist until a little while ago and not every item is tagged with its specialized type yet since there's a huge amount of existing items to go through. It's something we want to do as soon as we have the time.
