New Character Weapon

[TacoChingChong]

When I'm adding the new weapon, I just want to make sure I have everything right. 

- I added images\inventoryimages for the weapon image.

- I added scripts\prefabs\newweapon.lua

IMPORTANT (I think) lines of code that are inside prefabs\newweapon.lua are:

local assets=

{

    Asset("ANIM", "anim/newweapon.zip"),

    Asset("ANIM", "anim/swap_newweapon.zip"),

 

    Asset("ATLAS", "images/inventoryimages/newweapon.xml"),

    Asset("IMAGE", "images/inventoryimages/newweapon.tex"),

 

local function fn()

local inst = CreateEntity()

inst.entity:AddTransform()

inst.entity:AddAnimState()

    MakeInventoryPhysics(inst)

 

inst.entity:AddTransform()

inst.entity:AddAnimState()

inst.entity:AddSoundEmitter()

    inst.entity:AddNetwork()

 

inst.AnimState:SetBank("newweapon")

    inst.AnimState:SetBuild("newweapon")

    inst.AnimState:PlayAnimation("idle")

 

if not TheWorld.ismastersim then

        return inst

    end

 

    local function OnEquip(inst, owner)

        owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_object", "swap_newweapon", "swap_newweapon")

        owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_carry")

        owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_normal")

    end

 

    local function OnUnequip(inst, owner)

        owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_carry")

        owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_normal")

    end

 

    inst:AddComponent("inventoryitem")

inst.components.inventoryitem.keepondeath = true

    inst.components.inventoryitem.imagename = "elderwand"

    inst.components.inventoryitem.atlasname = "images/inventoryimages/newweaopn.xml"

     

    inst:AddComponent("equippable")

    inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip( OnEquip )

    inst.components.equippable:SetOnUnequip( OnUnequip )

inst.components.inventoryitem.keepondeath = true

 

inst:AddComponent("inspectable")

 

  inst:AddComponent("weapon")

inst.components.weapon:SetOnAttack(onattack_newweapon)

    inst.components.weapon:SetDamage(75)

    inst.components.weapon:SetRange(8, 10)

inst.components.weapon:SetProjectile("character_projectile")

 

    return inst

 

end

 

return  Prefab("common/inventory/newweapon", fn, assets)

 

 

 

 

 

- Added these lines of codes in modmain.lua:

 

STRINGS.NAMES.ELDERWAND = "Example"

STRINGS.CHARACTERS.GENERIC.DESCRIBE.ELDERWAND = "..."

 

 

Is there anything I'm currently missing from all of this? And I'm curious on how the animations for the weapon will autocompile.
