Weapon with mental resilience that applies only to mod characters

[simpliciflora]

If the sentence is awkward because I'm using a translator, I'll apologize in advance for that...

I'm creating a character mod with an item (weapons) added. I fixed my invisible weapon and made sure my character files were working fine. I've been looking for forums a lot... But I didn't really know how to find the relevant content, so I wrote it.

Anyway, to get straight to the point, I want to know the code that restores a small amount of mental strength when a particular character uses a weapon. The weapon is a melee type weapon and I want to apply it only to certain characters (mode characters). I think the recovery amount would be appropriate to recover 3 on 1 hit.

I tried making the code myself, but I'm still very inexperienced, so I kept failing.. Thank you in advance to anyone who reads this or worries about it, and have a good day.

You could try look in wigfrid's code to get health, and change it to work for sanity,
(and for the item itself)

local function onattack(inst, owner, target)
		if owner.components.sanity ~= nil and 
           owner:HasTag("Character_Tag") and
           not (target:HasTag("wall") or target:HasTag("engineering")) then
	        owner.components.sanity:DoDelta(TUNING.CUSTOM_WEAPON_SANITY_GAIN)
		end
    end
end

    inst:AddComponent("weapon")
    inst.components.weapon:SetDamage(TUNING.CUSTOM_WEAPON_DAMAGE) -- can be numbers like 34 (spear damage)
    inst.components.weapon.onattack = onattack

This is based on the bat bat from the base game

Tunings are to be implemented or changed to actual numbers depending on what you want.

The local function will make 3 checks for the effect to take place: if the character has sanity, if the character has a tag that your custom character will have and the target is not a placed object to avoid exploiting the game.

Add this to your item itself.
