			* If you have any tracking items in your spellbook (Find Minerals, Find Treasure, etc), [[API GetNumTrackingTypes\|GetNumTrackingTypes]] and [[API GetTrackingInfo\|GetTrackingInfo]] will be wrong if used too early.
			-- in this example, the character has Mining.
			local name = GetTrackingInfo(1);

			-- at VARIABLES_LOADED
			name == "Repair"

			-- at PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD
			name == "Find Minerals"
