I'm guessing the one I viewed had garbage bits in it that the flag->string function didn't recognize, so it generated "none". Your copy likely had it set to zero, which I'm guessing the code checks before attempting to do the flag->string.

Perhaps create a set of VALID_*_MASK for every flag bank, where * is the name of the bank, such as VALID_OBJEXTRA_MASK. The define would have all valid bit positions associated WITH that set of flags.

A simple check like so…

if(obj->extra & VALID_OBJEXTRA_MASK)

would filter out possible garbage bits from corrupting system checks.

I couldn't recreate this with the same object you tried.

Object 'black scimitar sword blade' is type weapon, extra flags remort_only.
