ffxi.get_info() Zone

hi there,

Recently, Zone appears to be returning the ID of the zone not a string? 

I was doing print(windower.ffxi.get_info().zone) to check for zone against a table of zone-strings, but now its getting a int, i tried printing zone_id and got nil.

Is there a new label for zones in string format? This seemed to be working ok a day or two ago. Or am I missing something obvious (Very Likely, Lua is a learning curve for me)

Thanks

Everything was switched to use the game internal IDs instead of strings. Aside from being more efficient, this helps internationalization, as it's language-agnostic.

To get the english name from it, do this:

res = require('resources')
 
print(res.zones[windower.ffxi.get_info().zone].english)

To get whatever your client's native language is (in case you wanna display it for the user) use this:

res = require('resources')
 
print(res.zones[windower.ffxi.get_info().zone].name)

Believe it or not. I just logged back in here to say i figured that out.

I just added res and used it, didnt think about other languages actually tbh so thanks for that !

ta for speedyness !
