Correct syntax for equiping an item stored in prefs please?

[jwylot]

I'm saving my current hat in prefs with

set_property("last_hat", equipped_item($slot[hat]));

and would like to re-equip it later but can't get the syntax right. I've tried all sorts of permutations, including

equip ($item [get_property("last_hat")]);

Thanks for your help.

I believe you want

equip( to_item( get_property( "last_hat" )0);

Also, the set_property works without turning equipped_item into a string?

set_property("last_hat", equipped_item($slot[hat]).to_string());
equip (get_property("last_hat").to_item());

Yes. KoLmafia will frequently turn data types into strings without an explict to_string() command when a string is required.
