Help with transferring DS mod to DST

[zsdedan]

Hi!

I found DS mod useful to me in DST. I could not find analogs for DST, so I decided to transfer this mod from DS to DST myself. I studied a lot of material on the forum and other mods, but nothing came of it. Maybe someone can help?

During launch, the game crashes with the message

[00:00:46]: error calling simpostinit in mod mymod (EnableMouse with Controller): 
[string "../mods/mymod/modmain.lua"]:17: attempt to index local 'inst' (a nil value)
LUA ERROR stack traceback:
        ../mods/mymod/modmain.lua(17,1)
        =(tail call) ?
        =[C] in function 'xpcall'
        scripts/mods.lua(165,1)
        scripts/mods.lua(772,1) in function 'SimPostInit'

Where to dig?

modmain.lua

idk self. should be inst and inst should be self.inst

@zsdedan If you're relying on the inst argument from AddSimPostInit, that would be the cause of your error.

-- example
AddSimPostInit(function(inst) print(inst) end)

In DS, inst == GetPlayer()

in DST, inst == nil
