SET_WEIGHT :
 Cruft from the .d / .tp2 split? Still necessary for back-compatibility?

DESCRIBE_ITEM:
 What is this :) ?

DESCRIBE_ITEM sets a variable with item statistics. It's a TP2 front-end to the Icewind Gate method of creating item descriptions based on the actual item statistics and abilities. You'll never find any use for it.

IIRC, you'd do something like
Code: [Select]
COPY_EXISTING SW1H01.ITM override
DESCRIBE_ITEM variable_nameAfterward, variable_name is a variable holding a pretty-printed string of some of the common item stats (range, weight, damage, abilities list, etc.).

Keen, thank you. I'll never use it.

Probably some useless leftover crap, but it shouldn't create bugs. I'm removing it anyway.
