Custom character food preferations

[Artanis_Squid]

I'm beginner in making codes so I would like to receive some help from players.

I'm making a new character to don't starve (not together). This character are going to have specific food preferations.

*He likes vegetables and fruits.

*Hates fishes.

I mean he will eat every food but he will receive more stats from eating that food what he likes and smaller stats from food what he doesn't like.

I know fishes haven't got any foodtype and they are just meat foodtype . I know vegetables are Veggie foodtype but I don't know nothing about fruits. Probably they are in veggie too.

Nevermind.Can you help me with that code,becuse when I was writting some of examples at forum that wasn't working and it was crushing a game.

 

I want to repeat that I am beginner so I will be glad if you will write that code in comments and I will just copy that and paste ,because at my lavel of creating mods I can only copying and pasting things to my lua.

well this will be little basic and long but you can use this code for edit every foods stats

,

local function oneat(inst, food)

	if food and food.components.edible and food.prefab == "any food you want to edit" then
		inst.components.health:DoDelta(amount of health that it gave)
		inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(amount of sanity that it gave)
		inst.components.hunger:DoDelta(amount of hunger that it gave)
 elseif food and food.components.edible and food.prefab == "any food you want to edit" then
		inst.components.health:DoDelta(amount of health that it gave)
		inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(amount of sanity that it gave)
		inst.components.hunger:DoDelta(amount of hunger that it gave)
    .
    .
    .
    
	end
end

and this in master postinit

inst.components.eater:SetOnEatFn(oneat)

Thanks I should get to work.It's probably best method for me.

When I will have some problems I will write.

One question. Where I should put that ?

In modmain?

and this inst.components.eater....

in your character prefab

inst.components.eater

a component that allows the action of eating or gives the ability to eat

you should put it in character.lua and in character.lua there is a part named master_postinit you should put 

inst.components.eater

there

I hope this isn't hijacking the thread, but I have some questions about the code.

Is the value put after DoDelta the solid new value or is it the amount of change you want to do. Like if a food had a base hunger of 30 and I wanted to make it 45 would I put 45 or 15?

Also, is inst.components.health:DoDelta the only syntax for that? I've been picking through the code of a few other mods and seen some other code lines that seem to do similar things but they might be from outdated mods.
