[Help] How to override in-game function?

[IcyTheWhite]

This should fix it:

if inst.guanodropped == true then	inst.guanodropped = nilelse	if math.random() < 0.5 then		inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("bird_egg")		inst.guanodropped = nil	endend

Now the question is how to get rid of the 2nd egg that has a spawn chance on fruits, vegetables and seeds too?

(Get rid of it on "seeds" only, since they're overlapping.)

The old birdcage behaviour only spawns eggs for meat.

So now you should be good to go.

DarkXero, I don't know if I'm writing these comments clear enough, but probably not. English isn't my main language and sometimes I'm struggling to express what I have in mind.

 

No, I'm not yet good to go, since I want eggs drop with 33% chance for everything. Seeds (not the specific ones), fruits and veggies.

Although by adding the upper function, which gives 50% chance to drop an egg IF guano doesn't drop, there's also the second 33% chance to drop an egg whether or not the guano has dropped.

 

How to get rid of this 33% chance for "seeds" only, while keeping this chance for fruits or vegetables?

An additional condition has to be put in this function:

        if math.random() < 0.33 then            inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("bird_egg")        end

where it won't spawn an egg if the used food to feed the bird was "seeds".

 

Edit:

Would this work? (You've shown me this code in previous functions):

	local foodtype = food.components.edible.foodtype	if foodtype == GLOBAL.FOODTYPE.FRUIT or foodtype == GLOBAL.FOODTYPE.VEGGIE then		if math.random() < 0.33 then			inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("bird_egg")		end	end

@DarkXero, I know I've been quite complicated and maybe annoying too for the past few days, but in all honesty you've helped me a lot, not only with the code, but you've also with understanding of how things work a little more. There's just so much useful information in this topic that I can come back anytime and use it in something I would be working on.

 

So that said, I'm crediting you in my mod as a very, very helpful person.

Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

@IcyTheWhite:

    local function ExtraDigest(inst, food)		local foodtype = food.components.edible.foodtype		-- If the bird was given a fruit/veggie		-- 1-2 special seeds will spawn		if foodtype == GLOBAL.FOODTYPE.FRUIT or foodtype == GLOBAL.FOODTYPE.VEGGIE then			-- We add an extra seed so we end up dropping 2-3 seeds			local seed_name = string.lower(food.prefab .. "_seeds")			if GLOBAL.Prefabs[seed_name] then				inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab(seed_name)			end			-- Then, since se don't have either guano, egg, or normal seeds from the old behaviour			-- (Before, egg would spawn for meat, and guano from special/normal seeds)			-- 1/3 chance for egg			if math.random() < 0.33 then				inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("bird_egg")			else				-- 1/3 chance for normal seeds				if math.random() < 0.33 then					inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("seeds")				else					-- Neither egg or normal seeds dropped, we toss a guano for the other 1/3					inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("guano")				end			end		else			-- Here we were given special/normal seeds			-- 1/3 chance the old behaviour dropped a guano			if inst.guanodropped == true then				-- We do nothing, guano was dropped				inst.guanodropped = nil			else				-- No guano				-- We try again, add some extra chance to near 1/2				if math.random() < 0.17 then					inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("guano")				else					-- No guano for 1/2, so we toss some seeds for the other 1/2					inst.components.lootdropper:SpawnLootPrefab("seeds")				end			end			end    end

Haha alright man, thanks! You've helped enough.

 

It's all working as intended now for DST and DS single player as well.

I'll be uploading it tonight.
