Name
query_weight_unit - The amount of this stuff.
Syntax
int *query_weight_unit();
Description
This returns an array of two elements: ({ a, b }) means that b units have weight a.
This allows you to define up less than the smallest weight weights for continuous items. ie: For rice the weight unit would be something like ({ 200, 1 }) which means 200 of the objects weight 1 weight unit.
This is also used in food when the eat_effect is run to modify the number passed into the eat_effect. So the number parsed in is the actual weight of the stuff eaten.
