Consider implementing a "find" script expression for specific objects [FEATURE]

Kadoba commented 3 years ago

The expressions findbuff and findtype are both implemented but there doesn't seem to be one to check for the existence of a specific known item or entity. Having such an expression named "find" would be consistent with the naming scheme for lift and lifttype.

As for an example, let's say you have a reagent bag with an organizer assigned to it. Obviously you can easily lose this. You could use a macro to trigger the organizer but if the bag can't be found the script requests you assign a new one first.

// Fires organizer 4. If it can't be found then it asks the player to assign a new one.
if not find 'regbag'
   setvar 'regbag'
   organizer 4 'set'
   waitfortarget
   target 'regbag'
endif
organizer 4

Just to clarify, find would be doing a check if your variable (in this case regbag) could be found?

Yes or any serial

Closing this request for now. If it gains more interest we can look at it again.
