Convert AttackType/DamageType/WeaponType to integer

[Wietlol]

Hi all.

There are these functions:

ConvertAttackType()
ConvertDamageType()
ConvertWeaponType()

Which all return an integer that represents the attack/damage/weapon -type but how the hell do I reverse that same function?

How do I recieve the Integer from the type?

(Sorry if this is supposed to be in the Trigger section.)

If there's no such function for the reversion, why don't you make one?

First of all... if you look at how many damage types there are... I am too lazy to do that

But next to that. It would be something like this if I am not mistaken:

function ConvertAttackTypeReverse takes attacktype at returns integer
    if at == ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL then
        return integer1
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_MELEE then
        return integer2
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_PIERCE then
        return integer3
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_SIEGE then
        return integer4
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_MAGIC then
        return integer5
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_CHAOS then
        return integer6
    elseif at == ATTACK_TYPE_HERO then
        return integer7
    endif
endfunction

The problem is, how do I know what the integers are?

Use ConvertAttackType() to find out?
