I considered that...
But, we would need each item to have a pointer to the const item library as well as a locally managed instance. There would be
more code than the way I'm currently doing it, just for the owning client's benefit.
The bulk of the work is done in sending OP_WearChange's (Mob::SendWearChange). I just added accessors to ItemInst to pull the
'visible' IDFile. And since we already translate all client's OP_WearChange's, I can add a small reference array there to compensate
for invalid client models.
Not an ignorant question and I appreciate feedback like that. Even if I have a set understanding of something, having to explain
myself makes me re-examine my process as I type it out.
