Need help with character sprite and custom perks.

[Lunamoon81]

I'm still new into the modding community. I got the basics down. The text, the mod on the steam workshop, etc. I was wondering if there is a simple way of making sprites. I'm really a noob when it comes to this stuff so I would love some help. 

 

I also need some help with custom perks. One of them is my character would gain sanity from holding gold up to a certain amount of gold, like warbuck's perk. Another one is his is picky so he can't eat certain things deemed "gross." The last one would be that he wouldn't lose as much sanity from digging up graves.

 

I'd appreciate if someone could help me. Please and thank you!

    elseif nfuel_amount >= 10 then
        delta = TUNING.SANITYAURA_TINY * 2 
    elseif nfuel_amount >= 5 then
        delta = TUNING.SANITYAURA_TINY  
    end

    return delta
end

Is this the code for gaining sanity via gold as the user mentioned? (Seems so) And is this able to be swapped out for any item?

I was working on a perk like this for a character of mine on the workshop, but was wanting to use a different item other than gold.

And was also wondering if there was a way to have more than 1 item affect it. (For example, rock, nitre, gold, flint all gain sanity.)

Ok I got the code in. Now where would I place it?
