How do I create a new Fuel Type?

[Schulliya]

This may be a noob question, but...

I want my moditem to accept some stuff as fuel, I know how to add fuel value to a prefab, but how do I give them a fuel type completely new and exclusive to the mod?

Thank you in advance!

This is how you can do it:

local FUELTYPE = GLOBAL.FUELTYPE
FUELTYPE.YOUR_FUELTYPE = "YOUR_FUELTYPE" --replace YOUR_FUELTYPE with the name of your new fuel

AddPrefabPostInit("item", function(inst) --replace item with the item you want to have your new fueltype
	if not inst.components.fuel then
		inst:AddComponent("fuel")
	end
	inst.components.fuel.fueltype = FUELTYPE.YOUR_FUELTYPE
end)
