This bit of code is designed to allow mods to specify any wizard or priest spell to be used to identify items in the same manner as the Identify spell (SPWI110).
Priority for expending identification spells goes as such:
- Identify Spell (SPWI110)
- Level 1 -> 9
- Wizard -> Priest

if m == v.resref then
if v.castableCount > 0 then
if num == 1 then
for i = 1, 1 + v.memorizedCount - v.castableCount,1 do

mageScreen:UnmemorizeSpell( IDspellLevel - 1, y.memorizedIndex );
end

end

mageScreen:MemorizeSpell( IDspellLevel - 1, v.index );
end
return

return true
end
end
end
end
end
if IDspellLevel < 8 then
for k,v in pairs(characters[id].priestSpells[IDspellLevel]) do
for l,m in pairs(identifyCustomList[IDspellLevel]) do
if m == v.resref then
if v.castableCount > 0 then

end
end
end
end
end
end
return false
end
identifyCustomList = { [1] = {}, [2] = {}, [3] = {}, [4] = {}, [5] = {}, [6] = {}, [7] = {}, [8] = {}, [9] = {}, }~
SET length = STRING_LENGTH ~%text%~
INSERT_BYTES 0 length
WRITE_EVALUATED_ASCII 0 ~%text%~
ENDThe above can be added directly to a mod, or the attached file can be run through Weidu's INCLUDE action. I have not tested it in PST:EE, but it should work on any v2.3 game, provided these sections of UI.MENU have not already been heavily modified by other mods. Obviously IWDEE is out of the question right now.
Afterwards, simply APPEND ~M_IDENT.LUA~ with the following for any spell you would like to use for identification:
table.insert(identifyCustomList[%level%], '%spellres%')
Replacing the variables %level% and %spellres% (but keep those quotes on spellres).
The spellres does not have to be in the SPWI or SPPR format.
Innate Abilities are not supported, as there is no access to them through the UI, nor is there any way to decrement them even if they could be accessed through the UI.
I looked for ways to limit items to be identified by specific spells, either by difficulty or type, but these are the only item properties available to the UI:
Current Stack Size (INT)
Name (STRING)
Charges (INT)
isBag (BOOLEAN)
Overlay Tinting (RESREF)
Resource (RESREF)
identified (BOOLEAN)
description Picture (RESREF)
Inventory Icon (RESREF)
Description (STRING)
No lore, no price, nothing to sort them other than to make a static list of resources.
