[CLOSED] Any reason why I should not make Unlocalized name the same as registry?

[SHsuperCM]

Any reason to not make:

test_item_registry_name

also be the unlocalized name?

a.k.a:

item.test_item_registry_name.name=Just A Test Item

[Choonster]

It's okay for the registry and unlocalised names to be the same, as long as the registry name isn't derived from the unlocalised name. I recommend setting the registry name, then setting the unlocalised name to the registry name (like this).

 

Registry names are unique, constant IDs; unlocalised names aren't unique and can change at any time.

Well, first of all you should include your ModID in your unlocalized names, since unlocalized names are just using one big pool across all mods.

That I know, I was giving an example..

 

 

I understand that registrynames are unchangeable because it would destroy items in the world if I do change..

But I have very spesific things in my mind that I know that will not change from time to time at all because

the registry name is also how I get the actuall item objects(The registryname will be set to the object instance name "ish")

So when I call items I will have to change it aswell so I know it wont change.....

 

Sry for anyone who had to read that.. Me words bad no knows explain

 

 

So I'm getting that I can do this anyways...

Thanks!
