Additional Drying Rack meats? [mod help!]

[OhSnapple]

I'm currently working on a "better hambat" mod. It's a simple mod, that allows you to get the most out of your spoiling hambat.

 

This is the entirety of my mod:

 

function BetterBat(inst)

 

    inst:AddComponent("cookable")

    inst.components.cookable.product = "kabobs"

    inst:AddComponent("dryable")

    inst.components.dryable:SetProduct("meat_dried")

    inst.components.dryable:SetDryTime(TUNING.DRY_MED)

    inst:AddComponent("tradable")

    inst.components.tradable.goldvalue = TUNING.GOLD_VALUES.MEAT*2

    end

    

AddPrefabPostInit("hambat",BetterBat)

 

Everything works exactly how I want, but the hambat doesn't have any animations on the drying rack. I'm fine using the existing meat animations, I'm just not sure how to link it all up.

You need some AnimState:OverrideSymbol magic for that. I myself am not very experienced with that, but maybe the crop mods help. (since crop animations work similiarly).

Well, I seemed to have "solved" it. I really just copy pasted some coding from the "Better Drying Rack" mod made by Mouse.

I'm not savvy enough to do my own coding

 

Heres the finished mod:

TUNING=GLOBAL.TUNING

 

function onstartdrying(inst, dryable)

if not inst:HasTag("burnt") then

   inst.AnimState:PlayAnimation("drying_pre")

inst.AnimState:PushAnimation("drying_loop", true)

if dryable=="hambat" then

   dryable="meat"

end

 

   inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_dried", "meat_rack_food", dryable)

end

end

AddPrefabPostInit("meatrack", function(inst)

inst.components.dryer:SetStartDryingFn(onstartdrying)

inst.components.dryer:SetContinueDryingFn(onstartdrying)

end)

 

AddPrefabPostInit("hambat", function(inst)

inst:AddComponent("dryable")

inst.components.dryable:SetProduct("meat_dried")

inst.components.dryable:SetDryTime(TUNING.DRY_MED)

end)

 

function BetterBat(inst)

 

    inst:AddComponent("cookable")

    inst.components.cookable.product = "kabobs"

    inst:AddComponent("tradable")

    inst.components.tradable.goldvalue = TUNING.GOLD_VALUES.MEAT*2

    end

    

AddPrefabPostInit("hambat",BetterBat)
