#108, "Compare for like-ish items"


          

Would love to be able to compare items of the same position type, even if they aren't the same make up.

For example, I know that a particular ring gives me 15 hp, while the other gives me 5. But I get an echo that I can't compare ring A to ring B.

I'm not sure what the check is to see if they are comparable.

The check is item type. One is probably armor, and the other is probably treasure. The items have to be the same type to be comparable, and I really have no interest in writing up another compare function (because at this point you're really comparing apples to oranges).

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
