Problem with my mod

[fixerhere]

Ok so i wanted to make my character to have a negative sanity aura and it kinda works? except my character also gets negative sanity which i don't really want
 
Also i wanted that if i wear a garland sanity aura will be equal zero but my character gets negative sanity

Here is my sanity aura code

 

    inst:DoPeriodicTask(60.0, function(inst)
        if inst.components.sanity and inst:HasTag("playerghost") then
            return
        end
        local x,y,z = inst.Transform:GetWorldPosition()

        local players = TheSim:FindEntities(x, y, z, 5, {"player"}, {"playerghost", "INLIMBO"}, nil)
        
        for _,v in ipairs(players) do
            if v.components.sanity then
                v.components.sanity:DoDelta(-1)
            end
        end
    end)


I just started making my character and I'm not really good at LUA coding so sorry if i look dumb

Add the players tagg next to playerghost and INLIMBO if you want only the character to not get it 

ifyou want everyone else to get it do

 

"If v ~= inst then"

Then should make it so that if it finds you then it should work

Thank you!

It works well but do you know how to deactivate the aura when wearing a garland and make it so my character takes negative sanity wearing it?

[Thomas Die]

Garland probably has its own tagg just add another 

"If inst:HasTagg("insert_garland") then"

So i was looking and garland has "flower" tag 
I tried it to see what happens and nothing :/ can i possibly add myself a tag to a garland and if yes how?

[Thomas Die]

Uhh I think it should be a tagg in onequip 

Also just noticed by why does it happen every 60 sec

[fixerhere]

I wanted it so it doesn't make a sound every second of sanity dropping so i just made it 60 seconds

I will keep looking for the tagg

[fixerhere]

Ok i think i found something but i'm not sure if it's right
Tagg is called "healingflower" but it's in the hats_lavaarena prefab so it's probably wrong 

Also i don't know if i'm blind but i don't see garland onequip?

Only garland code i saw is this one


 

    local function flower_custom_init(inst)
        inst:AddTag("open_top_hat")
        inst:AddTag("show_spoilage")
    end

    local function flower()
        local inst = simple(flower_custom_init)

        inst.components.floater:SetSize("med")
        inst.components.floater:SetScale(0.68)

        if not TheWorld.ismastersim then
            return inst
        end

        inst.components.equippable.dapperness = TUNING.DAPPERNESS_TINY
        inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip(opentop_onequip)

        inst:AddComponent("perishable")
        inst.components.perishable:SetPerishTime(TUNING.PERISH_FAST)
        inst.components.perishable:StartPerishing()
        inst.components.perishable:SetOnPerishFn(inst.Remove)

        MakeHauntableLaunchAndPerish(inst)

        return inst
    end

Now i made my own hat beacuse i didn't know how to do it with garland so now the hat has a "evilflowerhat" tag so now how can i make it so when i wear it sanity aura is stopped?

 

[Thomas Die]

if inst.components.inventory:GetEquippedItem(EQUIPSLOTS.HEAD) == "flowerhat" then 
   --code
end

Okay sorry for the long ass reply but basically this finds what you're wearing then it works like that cus it's a lot easier then tags sometimes 

[penguin0616]

@thomas4846 :GetEquippedItem returns the item, not the item prefab. 

[Thomas Die]

AHH Kay so like uhm

inst.components.inventory:GetEquippedItem(EQUIPSLOTS.HEAD).prefab == "prefab_name"

[penguin0616]

@thomas4846 You also need to check that an item is present before you check for the prefab, or else it will error.

*evil laugh*

[Thomas Die]

HMMMMMM 
so
 

local HAT = inst.components.inventory:GetEquippedItem(EQUIPSLOTS.HEAD)

if HAT ~= nil and HAT.prefab == "prefab_name" then
   --code
end

THIS WORKS RIGHT?

[penguin0616]

@thomas4846 Yep.
