Just tested, and there's no need for the gametab call in almost all of the equipment functions. Is there a reason it's there?

It has to update the cache for the equipment interface.

Unless you use the Equipment hook, which should contain anything that is displayed on the character (so not rings, etc.).

As a failsafe to check if the player as a weapon equipped.

Use GetMe.Equipment[EQUIPMENT_SLOT_WEAPON]

Each time you click the equipment tab, the information in that tab is stored. That information can be accessed by reflection at any time, but if you equip new items, the information wont be updated until you click the equipment tab again

Thats when the getEquipment hook comes in. I believe that one stays updated. The normal equipment detection uses interfaces.

Wow, now I got confused.

So… the hook always has the right info,
The cache has the latest info,
and if you click it then you obviously have the info.

Is that it?

What's the hook then? :) / How do I use it rather.

And if anyone is gonna call this spoon feeding, please bring HagenDass and big spoons, cus most people wouldn't specifically ask how to use the hook.

Its built into GetMe.Equipment by mormonman. It will not work with rings, ammo, etc. (anything you can't see on the player).

function GetKegOnHeadCount: Integer;
var
  me: TMe;
  HeadID: Integer;
begin
  me := GetMe;
  HeadID := me.Equipment[EQUIPMENT_SLOT_HELMET];
  Result := HeadID - BARREL_ID;
end; 

^^ thats how i use it.
