Custom item that works like blow dart

[Electroflux]

I'm trying to make a custom item that works like a blow dart and is craftable, how would I go about doing this?

 

I took a look through weapon.lua and that seems to be the only thing slightly useful, however, not sure how I'd go about it.

 

It has to have increased range and less damage than a blow dart.  I'd like the player to start with this item and it uses a custom image.  Keep in mind, I'd like it to be craftable as well, just in case the player has to respawn and so forth.

To make it craftable add this to your modmain lua and change YOUR_ITEM_NAME

 

STRINGS.RECIPE_DESC.YOUR_ITEM_NAME = "Item crafting desc"local YOUR_ITEM_NAME = Recipe("YOUR_ITEM_NAME", { Ingredient("Ingredient", 2), Ingredient("Ingredient", 1) }, RECIPETABS.INSERT_TAB_HERE TECH.NONE)YOUR_ITEM_NAME.atlas = "images/inventoryimages/YOUR_ITEM_NAME.xml"

 Configure the Ingredients in "".

And change INSTERT_TAB_HERE to the tab you want the item to be in

If you have to respawn, then you'd have to return to your body, which it would be on the floor. You make it it with the tag "irreplacable" so it doesn't get burnt and stuff.

 

Am I right if I say you're trying to make isaac's tears?

Yes, that's exactly right.
