[Solved] Custom Survivor: Foodtype bonus based on Season

[Goregonzola]

Hello!

As the title says, the perk I would like to apply on my custom survivor is:

1) I would like him to gain 125% more stats from veggies during autumn and spring and

2) 125% more stats from meats during winter and summer.

I've found this in Wurt's lua about his veggie boost:

inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1.33)

Now, the problem is, I'm not sure how to add a "function-skeleton" around this inst., to achieve my perk. I don't really know what's the best and most efficient way to trigger this function neither. I would like to ask for a helping hand to solve this puzzle.

Noteable: I have other perks with eating. One that provides 2x hunger bonus on every third food, and one that disables negative values on selected foods. I don't really mind if the 125% first or the 200% buff happens first, the only thing I would like to avoid is crashing. Here's the coding for the "every third food perk":

local function WelnyelOnEat(inst, data)

    if inst.food_counter == nil then
        inst.food_counter = 0 --this creates and initializes the food_counter variable if there isn't one already
    end
  
      inst.food_counter = inst.food_counter + 1 --we increase the counter by one cause we just ate (otherwise this function would not have been executed)
  
      if inst.food_counter == 2 then -- once we hit 3, we need to apply the bonus
        inst.components.eater:SetAbsorptionModifiers(1, 2, 1)
    end

    if inst.food_counter == 3 then -- once we hit 3, we need to apply the bonus
        inst.components.eater:SetAbsorptionModifiers(1, 1, 1)
        inst.food_counter = 0 --we reset the counter afterwards
    end

end

 

Here's the coding for the disable perk:

local protected_foods = { "monstermeat", "green_cap_cooked", ... }

local old_DoFoodEffects = inst.components.eater.DoFoodEffects
    inst.components.eater.DoFoodEffects = function(self, food_inst)
        for i, v in ipairs(protected_foods) do
            if food_inst.prefab == v then
                return false
            end
        end
        return old_DoFoodEffects(self, food_inst)
    end

 

Thanks in advance!

Have a great day!

EDIT:

I came up with the following coding, but it doesn't seem to work in it's current form:

Spoiler

 

local function WelnyelSeasonal(inst, season)
    
    if season == "spring" or season == "autumn" then 
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1.25)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1)
    end

    if season == "winter" or season == "summer" then 
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1.25)
    end

end

inst:WatchWorldState("season", WelnyelSeasonal)

 

May I ask for a quick tutoring?

Problem solved:

local function WelnyelSeasonal(inst, season)
    if season == "autumn"  then
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1.25)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1)
    
    elseif season == "spring" then    
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1.25)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1)
    
    
    elseif season == "winter" then
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1.25)
    
    elseif season =="summer" then
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.VEGGIE, 1)
        inst.components.foodaffinity:AddFoodtypeAffinity(FOODTYPE.MEAT, 1.25)
        
    end
end

inst:WatchWorldState("season", WelnyelSeasonal)
WelnyelSeasonal(inst, TheWorld.state.season)
