I don't know whether I got that right, but I think this is what you're looking for:
http://www.conitec.net/beta/engine_getvar.htm

I already had seen this function in the documentation however I do not obtain to understand as it functions in the Real.

I did not understand the example of it.
you could show to an example using this function to me?
Plz plz (^.^)
Tnkx

Look at the beta manual

I see... but i not understand the exemplate.
I made a mount of tests but none functions..

char* name= "plate_armor";

inv_float_item(engine_getvar (name, VAR_POINTER));
OR
inv_float_item(engine_getvar (name, VAR_STRUCT));

BUT NOT.

THE FUNCTION CORRECT IS.

inv_float_item(plate_armor);//plate_armor is a pointer. this is funct. but no is i want
