[Help] Need help making a few character perks

[LynxETurner]

Good evening, I've been searching for over an hour now but cant find what I need for 2 custom characters I'm working on.

 

I need help with some perks. What I'm looking for are:

-Code to gain sanity of 5 points when harvesting berries, 1 point when picking grass, sapling and reeds.

-Code to gain sanity of 10 points on kill.

 

Thanks for any help in advance.

-Code to gain sanity of 5 points when harvesting berries, 1 point when picking grass, sapling and reeds.

In your modmain:

pick_sanity ={    berrybush = 5,    grass = 1,    sapling = 1,    reeds = 1}for k,v in pairs(pick_sanity) do    AddPrefabPostInit(k, function(inst)        if not GLOBAL.TheWorld.ismastersim then return end        local old_onpickedfn = inst.components.pickable.onpickedfn        inst.components.pickable.onpickedfn = function(inst, picker)            old_onpickedfn(inst, picker)            if picker.prefab == "mycharprefab" then                picker.components.sanity:DoDelta(v)            end        end    end)end

-Code to gain sanity of 10 points on kill.  

 

In your character's master_postinit:

local function on_entity_death(world, data)    if data.afflicter == inst then        inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(10)    endendinst:ListenForEvent("entity_death", on_entity_death, TheWorld)

Unfortunately the Kill code crashed the mod the moment I enabled it and the other didn't seem to do anything. Sanity remained unaffected at harvesting any of the plants listed.

[DarkXero]

	inst:ListenForEvent("killed", function(inst, data)		if not data.victim:HasTag("wall") and inst.components.sanity then			inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(5)		end	end)

In your master_postinit also works.

 

And rezecib pick code works, did you change the mycharprefab into your prefab's name?

Like:

local pick_sanity = {	berrybush = 5,	grass = 1,	sapling = 1,	reeds = 1}for k, v in pairs(pick_sanity) do	AddPrefabPostInit(k, function(inst)		local old = inst.components.pickable.onpickedfn		inst.components.pickable.onpickedfn = function(inst, picker)			old(inst, picker)			if picker.prefab == "wilson" then				picker.components.sanity:DoDelta(v)			end		end	end)end

@LynxETurner, Show us the files where you put the code, both of them definitely work if you place them correctly.

Looking back at the second code I prolly made the mistake of putting the last line AFTER the "end" part.

[rezecib]

@LynxETurner, Prefab names cannot have capital letters, so the sanity will never work because you are using "Sparky". I'd guess it should be "sparky".

 

And you are correct, the inst:ListenForEvent should be inside the master_postinit (before the return statement, actually), not after it. The function on_entity_death also needs to be defined inside the master_postinit so it will have access to the "inst" variable.

[LynxETurner]

I corrected all my mistakes now and they both work perfectly now. Many thanks for your help.
