Is there any way for an item script to access information about the item that called it?

this->ID

There was no such parameter in 2.53. Use this function in 2.53.

//Returns ID of item from itemdata pointer
int ItemID (itemdata it){
	for (int i=0; i<256; i++){
		itemdata n = Game->LoadItemData(i);
		if (it==n) return i;
	}
	return -1;
}

You don't need `this->ID` though to get the *information of the item*, only the ID number. If what they want is actually just information about the item, `this->` in general has all of it (since `this->` is already the itemdata for the item)
