That is very cool. So to be clear you can edit AND introduce another item. So in my example you still have the DL-44 and DL-44 Metal but also add the DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol?
Yes, but you can do that currently, you just need to know how to edit or create the current .lua templates (Done via Notepad or a dedicated Lua Editor). So to make it clear, mine won't enable something that wasn't possible before (Strictly speaking for my Lua Editor), it just might make it easier for some to quickly create or edit items.
So in your example, yes, that will be fairly quick to create, but right now you could copy an existing template and edit it with a text editor and it'll do the same thing.
So to be redundant:
https://github.com/TheAnswer/Core3/blob/unstable/MMOCoreORB/bin/scripts/object/weapon/ranged/pistol/pistol_dl44_metal.lua
Clone that, modify, rename, etc and you'll have whatever you want. Of course there is probably a bit more to it than that (I never do server stuff), but yeah.
Anything visual is mostly done client side (IFF Object), anything stats related, etc is done server side (Lua Object which links to an IFF Object).
