how to create character specific craftable items

[FemboyMiker]

im trying to make a character who can craft his own special items, like wickerbottoms books for example. i want other characters to be able to use the items, but only he will be able to make them.

Hi there.

You can do this with the function AddCharacterRecipe that is shown here, by putting it in modmain.lua:

This recipe requires a "builder_tag" that you'll have to assign to your character to allow them to craft it. You can assign the tag to your character by putting

Quote

inst:AddTag("exampletag")

in their local common_postinit function in their [YourCharacterName].lua file. Just change the example tags to whatever, so long as they both match.

That should make the recipe pop up for them and only them. Hope this helps!
