Yes, names as Id is an... interesting... method.

Honestly most of the strange issues like that come from Ken's original design and we are slowly moving to more robust constructs. Sadly as he isn't with us anymore, we can only wonder what he had in mind when he coded those.

For example most resources were at one time double precision floating numbers, even though they were always without exception casted back to ints for use... the code was a spaghetti of casts and roundings everywhere. Even the way the client-server communicates is very strange as an almost full game state is provided to each client and we're just recently cleaning it up.
