Plugin to obtain class ID

[abooble24]

I couldn't believe there wasn't a global $classid, so I had to make a plugin to pull it. I am using it to assign a class specific start task to a character as they are created without having to compare class string names over and over. I am sure there will be other uses for it that someone out there can come up with.

The Plugin:
sub getClassId{
my $class = $_[0];
%classes = ( 'Warrior', 1,
'Cleric', 2,
'Paladin', 3,
'Ranger', 4,
'Shadowknight', 5,
'Druid', 6,
'Monk', 7,
'Bard', 8,
'Rogue', 9,
'Shaman', 10,
'Necromancer', 11,
'Wizard', 12,
'Mage', 13,
'Enchanter', 14,
'Beastlord', 15,
'Berserker', 16
);
return $classes{$class};
}

Example Usage: (Player enters zone and is assigned task if not on/completed)
sub EVENT_ENTERZONE{
my $ClassID = plugin::getClassId($class);

if(!quest::istaskactive($ClassID) && !quest::istaskcompleted($ClassID)){
quest::assigntask($ClassID);
}
}
