[HELP] I would like to know how to copy a character's mechanics.

[Onemy]

I don't want to make a very complex modded character, I just want to copy the mechanics of WX-78 and maybe modify some things, but I don't know how to copy the perks, items, and skill tree from WX-78 to my modded character.

Simply copy the entire code in wx78.lua and edit a few places if anything is wrong, or use this method.

But what should I modify in wx78.lua? Should I replace all the "wx78_..." entries with the name of my modded character?

No, you shouldn't modify the actual wx78.lua. What you need to do is copy the code from wx78.lua into your custom character's script and modify it from there. You don't need to copy or change the "wx78_..." entries in your mod unless you plan on extensively tweaking them; they can stay as they are. Just make sure to update the character name in the last line of your file:
 

return MakePlayerCharacter("your_character_name", prefabs, assets, common_postinit, master_postinit)
