pRestriction - Where is Restrictions.xml?[message #361987]

I'm trying to create a mortar shell carrying LBE (simply a variant of the old "grenade" thigh pouch), and studied the structure of the LBE-related files. They look quite straightforward, except the <pRestriction> tag, I can't find where it points to, there is no Restrictions.xml I can see. (And since the value seems to be binary and additive, I can't even infer from the existing examples. Which value do I need to put in if I want to restrict something to only mortar shells? How do I create a brand new restriction?)

So, long story short, where do <pRestriction> values point to?

I think pRestriction is a bitmask from allowed item types (<usItemClass>) from Items.xml
From the code

if ( LBEPocketType[pIndex].pRestriction != 0 && !(LBEPocketType[pIndex].pRestriction & Item[usItem].usItemClass) )
{
	return 0;
}

Thanks, but what does that mean in human?... happy

I think I understand the "if the restriction of the LBE item is not" first part, but then I'm hopelessly lost.

Thanks, I was fearing it was something undocumented, hidden in the code.

What on earth is "randomitem"? Restrict something to that, and restriction changes each time you use it? suprised
