When I play with other players, sanity mod conflict occurs

[unya_10]

I added a mod that increases sanity when character A and character B together.

 

local function checkaura(inst, observer)
    if observer:HasTag("characterB") then
        return TUNING.SANITYAURA_LARGE
    end    
end

 

local common_postinit = function(inst) 
    inst:AddTag("characterB")
    
    inst:AddComponent("sanityaura")
    inst.components.sanityaura.aurafn = checkaura
    
    
    return inst

end

 

local master_postinit = function(inst)

    -- characterA
    
    return inst
end
 

 

I added that code to each character's lua, and the interaction worked well.

But, when characterA met characterA or other characters not in the HasTag, there is a mod conflict as shown in that photo.

(Error : attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value LUA ERROR stack traceback)

 

 

I couldn't solve this problem because I was a beginner.

I hope that someone can help me with this problem.

Can I have the full crash logs? I want to look deeper into this.

I'm so sorry I checked late.
Are these the log files you're talking about?
If not, please let me know!
And thank you for your help.

I'm afraid these logs do not contain the crash; if you want to make sure it's the correct one, you can load your game, replicate your crash and use the client_log.txt in your current game session.

You can use Ctrl + F to look through contents of the text file; type in LUA ERROR in the search box, and if your log has it, that's the correct one.

Hello. Can I also get some help? I'm experiencing exactly the same problem. However, I don't know much about coding, so I couldn't figure out a solution by looking at the logs...

This is my crash logs. You can use Ctrl + F to find them.

Your logs say you're trying to do maths on a nil value. This probably has something to do with your aura fn in your character's Lua file.
Is your sanity aura fn returning a value for the game to work with?

local function checkaura(inst, observer)
	if observer:HasTag("tagA") then
		return TUNING.SANITYAURA_HUGE
	end	
end
	
	
local function common_postinit (inst) 

	inst.soundsname = "willow"
	inst.MiniMapEntity:SetIcon( "characterA_mapicon.tex" )

	inst:AddTag("tagA")
	
	inst:AddComponent("sanityaura")
	inst.components.sanityaura.aurafn = checkaura
	
	
	return inst

end

Here’s the Lua script for characterA that I wrote. Is there something wrong with it? I want to apply the sanityaura effect only to characters assigned with "tagA". Therefore, I added the observer code to the Lua script of characterA. Additionally, I assigned the AddTag("tagA") code to characterA, characterB, and characterC so they would receive the sanityaura effect.

Baguettes is right: In your code it only returns TUNING.SANITYAURA_HUGE if the character has your tag. You need to define what happens if a character does not have the tag:

local function checkaura(inst, observer)
  if observer:HasTag("tagA") then
    return TUNING.SANITYAURA_HUGE
  else
    return 0 -- Presuming 0 is the right number for no aura
  end
end

I was able to solve the problem. Thank youuuu!!
