A few questions

[notquitethatguy]

Hi,

 

I'm still quite new to Don't Starve modding and I would like pointers to know how to achieve these two things. One: How can I make my own science tab, that uses its own "science" machine? 

Two: How can I make a staff require ammunition to fire?

 

I would like tutorials or advice would be helpful, I've looked at mods that have custom ammo but I do not get how they are using it.

Take a look at mods that feature such things. There's plenty of mods with custom tabs (they're only one line of code!) and some with tech branches and research machines (not so easy).

 

For the second one, you maybe should look at in-game items that consume resources upon useage. Or at gun mods, there's a hand full of those too.

Well, like I said, I tried looking at the Gordon Freeman Mod that uses quite a few guns but I still don't get how it uses it.
