Hello BI Team,
for weapon stores, clothes stores, supermarkets it would be great to have a standardized category attribute for each item.
This would help to generate dynamic stores, which are easily ready for updates.

Steps To Reproduce
Weapons: Currently i am sorting trough scopes this is OK, but the naming for categories is weird. I sort it currently though description string actions.
aj_wpTypes = [
"Assault rifle ", "Marksman rifle", "Light Machine Gun", "Submachine Gun", "Sniper Rifle", "Handgun", "Rocket Launcher", "Medium Machine Gun", "Underwater Gun", "PCML Rocket Launcher" ];
This works, but could screw up on updates.
For Vehicles i and static objects i use kindof - this works. but i would like to have general functions for categorizing of each store object.
Scopes and Attachments are being sorted through linkedItems, which is OK.
Additional Information
The main problem: Weapon categories.
I am fearing problems with the categories there:
_weaponType = ([_description, "<"] call BIS_fnc_splitString) select 0;
if(_weaponType in _weaponTypeDescriptionSearchString && (configName _x find "base") == -1 && !((configName _x) in _tempDuplicateFilterArray)) then {
if(_weaponType == "PCML Rocket Launcher") then {_weaponType = "Rocket Launcher"};Event Timeline

BIS_fnc_itemType is doing the job (delivered with Virtual Arsenal -> marskmen)
For me its fine, if Karel maintains it :D

Adam, Thanks for taking care. There are still some Items, which are not being categorized completely (like structures, buildings), but this matches not this ticket.
I try to show up with a modified version of bis_fnc_itemsType, if i get a widely usable idea.
