Books Function Modification

[Argonium]

I want to make books more customizable: Number of birds, tentacles, sanity loss, etc...

I can't understand why code crashing and freezing my game
Any help would be helpful.

Thanks!

AddPrefabPostInit("book_tentacles", function(inst)
	inst.components.book.onread = function(inst, reader)
            local pt = reader:GetPosition()
            local numtentacles = 3

            reader.components.sanity:DoDelta(-TUNING.SANITY_HUGE)

            reader:StartThread(function()
                for k = 1, numtentacles do
                    local theta = math.random() * 2 * PI
                    local radius = math.random(3, 8)

                    local result_offset = FindValidPositionByFan(theta, radius, 12, function(offset)
                        local pos = pt + offset
                        --NOTE: The first search includes invisible entities
                        return #TheSim:FindEntities(pos.x, 0, pos.z, 1, nil, { "INLIMBO", "FX" }) <= 0
                            and TheWorld.Map:IsPassableAtPoint(pos:Get())
							and TheWorld.Map:IsDeployPointClear(pos, nil, 1)
                    end)

                    if result_offset ~= nil then
                        local x, z = pt.x + result_offset.x, pt.z + result_offset.z
                        local tentacle = SpawnPrefab("tentacle")
                        tentacle.Transform:SetPosition(x, 0, z)
                        tentacle.sg:GoToState("attack_pre")

                        --need a better effect
                        SpawnPrefab("splash_ocean").Transform:SetPosition(x, 0, z)
                        ShakeAllCameras(CAMERASHAKE.FULL, .2, .02, .25, reader, 40)
                    end

                    Sleep(.33)
                end
            end)
            return true
        end
end)

It would help immensely to see your crash logs. If you don't know where to find those, take a look at the debugging part of my newcomer post.

[Argonium]

The main problem its just freeze without crash

[Ultroman]

It should still leave an error in your logs.

Is this all the code you have in your mod?

[Argonium]

Yep, in my modmain

Just stuck with this forever, doing something will result in standing and sound bugs

[Ultroman]

Really weird. I don't see anything wrong in your code, and it passes the syntax checks...must be something inside the loop. Have you tried commenting out each section, starting from the bottom? Like, comment out camera shake, comment out spawning waves, comment out spawning of tentacles. comment out calculating result_offset...etc. to see what makes it stop? I can't think of anything else, if you don't see any errors in your log files.
