Item Database
Item Database
Section titled “Item Database”To save time and because this project is community maintained, this doc was written by AI.
The Item Database is a built-in tracking system that automatically records items as you encounter them in the world. Over time it builds a searchable history of every item your character has seen — what it is, where it was, and when you last encountered it.
Enabling the Feature
Section titled “Enabling the Feature”The Item Database is enabled by default. You can toggle it on or off inside the Item Database tab of the Legion Assistant window.
When disabled, no new items are recorded. Your existing database entries are preserved.
Opening the Item Database
Section titled “Opening the Item Database”Open the Legion Assistant window and select the Item Database tab.
How Items Are Recorded
Section titled “How Items Are Recorded”Items are added or updated in the database automatically when:
- An item appears in the world around you
- An item is placed into a container you open
- Item property data (tooltip) is received from the server
The following item types are intentionally excluded:
- Doors, lights, walls, roofs, and other world fixtures
- Rocks and trees
- Multis and corpses
Searching
Section titled “Searching”Use the search fields at the top of the tab to filter your database. All filters are optional — leave any field blank to match everything.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Partial text match on the item’s name |
| Property text | Partial match against item property lines (e.g. "Curse", "Luck 120") |
| Graphic | Numeric graphic/art ID |
| Hue | Numeric hue value (color) |
| Layer | Equipment layer (for worn items) |
| Container | Serial number of a specific container to search within |
Additional filters:
- On ground only — show only items found lying in the world
- In containers only — show only items found inside containers
- Current character only — limit results to the active character
Use the Max results slider to control how many records are returned (10–1000).
Click Search to run the query.
Reading Results
Section titled “Reading Results”Results display in a table with the following columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Art | Item graphic thumbnail |
| Name | Item name (or custom name if set) |
| Hue | Item color value |
| Layer | Equipment layer, if applicable |
| Location | World coordinates or “Container” |
| Container | Parent container serial |
| Character | Character name that recorded this entry |
| Updated | Relative time since last seen (e.g. 5m ago, 2h ago) |
Click the Actions button on any row to open the Item Detail window.
Item Detail Window
Section titled “Item Detail Window”The detail window shows the full record for a single item and provides actions you can take on it.
Information displayed:
- Large item graphic with graphic ID and hue
- Name, custom name, and last-seen time
- Layer (if worn)
- Character and server it was recorded on
- Last known location (ground coordinates or container serial)
- Full item properties from the tooltip
Actions available:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Use Item | Double-clicks the item in the world (item must still be present) |
| Take Item | Moves the item to your backpack (item must still be present) |
| Try to Locate | Creates a quest arrow pointing to the item’s last known world coordinates |
| Set Custom Name | Assign a personal label to this item |
| View Container | Opens the database entry for the item’s parent container |
Note: Actions like Use Item and Take Item only work if the item is still present in the game world at the recorded location. The database stores where an item was last seen, not a live location.
Custom Names
Section titled “Custom Names”You can assign a custom name to any item in the database. Custom names appear in place of the default item name throughout the client wherever the item is displayed.
To set a custom name:
- Open the item in the detail window
- Click Set Custom Name
- Enter your label and confirm
To remove a custom name, clear the field and save.
Maintaining the Database
Section titled “Maintaining the Database”The database grows over time as you encounter more items. To remove old records:
- Enter the number of days in the Days field (default: 120)
- Click Clear Old Entries
This permanently deletes all records that have not been updated within that time window. It cannot be undone.
Technical Notes
Section titled “Technical Notes”- The database is stored at
Data/items.dbin your TazUO installation directory. - Items are written in batches every 3 seconds to minimize performance impact.
- The database is fully flushed when you exit the game, so no data is lost on a clean shutdown.
- Search is limited to a maximum of 10,000 results regardless of slider setting.
