Coding Class: Dagger

From LSWiki

// Include our base header file
#include <item.h>
// Inherit our base object for what we're creating
inherit "/std/item";
// configure() is where we define what the object -is-, and indirectly what it does.
void configure() {
    // Call the configure() function from the file we inherited above.  This really only calls one other function but it's necessary so that everything we're about to do works.
    ::configure();
    // Call set_weapon_type() in the weapon extension and set it to Weapon_Type_Dagger (since we're making a dagger!)
    weapon()->set_weapon_type(Weapon_Type_Dagger);
    // Set the craft of the item.
    set_craft(Craft_Good);
    // Setup a general default description.
    add_description(Description_Type_Generic);
    // Setup the materials and forms and parts that we want our dagger to be made of.
