[Mod Question][Addprefabpostinit] Can It Be Done ?

[D4rk0]

So I'm new and I wanna try my own mod. I have enough coding knowledge , but I'm "stuck" at something.

 

 

How can I overwrite a function , or is it possible to do so , using AddPrefabPostInit ?

 

This is the code:

 

local function onupdate(inst, dt)inst.charge_time = inst.charge_time - dtif inst.charge_time <= 0 theninst.charge_time = 0if inst.charged_task theninst.charged_task:Cancel()inst.charged_task = nilendinst.SoundEmitter:KillSound("overcharge_sound")inst.charged_task = nilinst.Light:Enable(false)inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = TUNING.WILSON_RUN_SPEED inst.AnimState:SetBloomEffectHandle( "" )inst.components.temperature.mintemp = -20inst.components.talker:Say(GetString("wx78", "ANNOUNCE_DISCHARGE"))--inst.SoundEmitter:KillSound("overcharge_sound")else    local runspeed_bonus = .5    local rad = 3    if inst.charge_time < 60 then    rad = math.max(.1, rad * (inst.charge_time / 60))    runspeed_bonus = (inst.charge_time / 60)*runspeed_bonus    end    inst.Light:Enable(true)    inst.Light:SetRadius(rad)inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = TUNING.WILSON_RUN_SPEED*(1+runspeed_bonus)inst.components.temperature.mintemp = 10endend

The code is taken from WX78 and is supposed to increase runspeed when you're hit by lightning.

 

 

I want to overwrite this line:

 

inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = TUNING.WILSON_RUN_SPEED*(1+runspeed_bonus)and make it inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = TUNING.WILSON_RUN_SPEED*(2+runspeed_bonus)

 

Is this possible to do in modmain.lua so that I don't have to duplicate the wx78.lua prefab ?

 

 

EDIT: Sorry if wrong section. Like I said am new here and in a rush writing this.

No, I don't think it is.

Use an eventlistener for lightning, then apply a speed boost to it. It'll help to perform a check to see if he's charged or not, as well.
