Make monstermeat not perishable in my character's inventory

[igel69]

Hello. I'm currently creating a mod where a character is supposed to make Monster meat unperishable in its inventory.

Thanks in advance

From Wurt:

local function FishPreserverRate(inst, item)
	return (item ~= nil and item:HasTag("fish")) and TUNING.WURT_FISH_PRESERVER_RATE or nil
end


inst:AddComponent("preserver")
inst.components.preserver:SetPerishRateMultiplier(FishPreserverRate)

This gives all fishes that Wurt holds a 4 times longer time before they perish.

If you set it the value to 0, it won't perish.

Try to make working for your needs

thank you, though I'm not quite sure I understand the code. You said it holds 4 times longer and that I need to change the value to 0 but where do I do that?

If you have a look at tuning.lua, you will find WURT_FISH_PRESERVER_RATE, which is described as a value of 0.25. That means, the time to perish is divided by 0.25, which means that the time is 4 times as long.

--in the character prefab
local function MonsterMeatPreserverRate(inst, item)
	return (item ~= nil and item.prefab = "monstermeat") and 0 or nil
end


--in master postinit
inst:AddComponent("preserver")
inst.components.preserver:SetPerishRateMultiplier(MonsterMeatPreserverRate)

This would be the correct function for you, you check if the item is monstermeat by seing if the prefab is "monstermeat", then the perish rate for this item is 0. If it's not monstermeat, it's nil, which means it makes no changes.

Ah worked perfectly thank you so much!
