moonbox question

cherwilco · 04/01/2006, 09:42

playin with unknownes item renamer I noticed that moonbox is listed numerous times with only the ItemId number changed on each. is this to assume that these can be renamed also like command tokens?

like if I get a mb and I can tell somehow its item id 721032 and I write that down and open it and I get 3 mets can I assume that I will always get the lousy 3 mets from that one and change it in itemtype so I dont buy that one anymore? and so on and so forth till I get all of them named. would make moonbox shopping a whole lot more fun if you get my drift!

(also how can I tell wich item type I have in my inventory?)

A while ago moonboxes would be random, and it was possible to predict the item you would get from the box via its ID. It's fixed now so ALL moonboxes use the same ID, and the server rnadomly generates the item.

Actually, yea, only one of those moonboxes is used, I thought the same thing and tested it out. What i did was rename each moonbox from 1-36 or something like that... anyhow, only Moonbox 32 is used. But yea, its all server side now, no easy way to "guess" whats in it.
