User:Kreafan/Item Origin

All items have an assigned origin. Origin determines the way of how the item was given to the player and always connected with the current owner's backpack.

An item may only have one assigned origin at a time, which cannot be altered except through certain circumstances by Valve.

The names of the various origins are defined in the game files.
