Custom character mod: BIG questions

[Crykov]

 

 

 

hi! my name is mata, i'm working on a custom character mod for my character: crykov! crykov is half cat, half enderman, which are a mob type from popular indie game minecraft.

 

you can find the mod in it's current status here: http://steamcommunit...s/?id=504987058

 

my original goal when i made this mod was just to shove my own character into the game so i could be unique, but i want it to be a mod that others can be able to use, that is also well-balanced

 

here's what my character has so far

 

*a starter item called "blink" with a place-holder inventory icon which was taken from the Pearl mod, i had trouble scripting my own item, due to an error that pointed out something that wasn't even in the script, so i used the pearl mod as a base.

*low stats to balance out her ability to teleport (100 hunger, 150 health and 150 sanity)

*slightly faster walk speed

*70% custom dialogue

 

here's what i want her to have in the future: (i'll cross out things i have successfully added)

 

*slightly faster swing speed with all items (decided not to add this one)

*The ability to generate her own stable source of Nightmare Fuel. (1 every 3 days?)

*No sanity boost for prototyping unless it's from the Magic tab.

*Small sanity loss when near a Science Machine

*a small, purple glow that serves almost no purpose other than to keep Charlie away.

*Small sanity boost at night

*Heavy health loss depending on moisture levels. none when dry, slight when damp, and instant death when soaked.

*custom recipes for custom weapons and items for the Magic tab (a few ideas i have is a custom campfire/fire pit, which gives off a very large and long-lasting glow (perhaps it lasts 2-3 days) but is only powered by nightmare fuel.

*ability to eat purple gems, which boosts max stats.

 

what i know how to do:

 

*Add components from other items to make custom items work like them. (added the component "blinkstaff" to my teleportation item)

*change walkspeed

*reskinning and custom art (i have trouble with items, for some reason they do not appear on the ground or in my hand, and the arm disappears when the item is used)

*VERY experienced in animation as seen here and i know how to make playable avatars with Flash scripting, as seen here, but no idea how to add custom animation to DST

*renaming items, adding things to the prefab files and PrefabFiles code in modmain.lua

*everything this guide describes how to do

 

 

SO basically all the questions i have is how to do everything under "stuff i want my character to have in the future"

 

if anyone knows ANYTHING on how to add ANY of this stuff, i'd appreciate a guide or tutorial link, or any primary-source help you can provide !

 

thank you!!

*slightly faster swing speed with all items

Don't bother with this, faster animations actually require creating entirely new animations.  Woodie has his own animation for chopping, along with his own entry into the wilson stategraph.

This kind of a feature would give a headache, I'd suggest a workaround.  You can still do it, but it's a lot of extra work.

 

 

 

*The ability to generate her own stable source of Nightmare Fuel. (1 every 3 days?)

Elaborate on what you would want, just appearing directly into your inventory?

 

 

 

*Small sanity loss when near a Science Machine

if GLOBAL.TheNet:GetIsServer() then	AddPrefabPostInit("researchlab", function(inst)		inst:AddComponent("sanityaura")		inst.components.sanityaura.aura = 0	end)	AddPrefabPostInit("researchlab2", function(inst)		inst:AddComponent("sanityaura")		inst.components.sanityaura.aura = 0	end)	AddComponentPostInit("sanityaura", function(self)		local old = self.GetAura		function self:GetAura(observer)			if observer.prefab == "crykov" and (self.inst.prefab == "researchlab" or self.inst.prefab == "researchlab2") then				return -0.5 --Adjust this to your liking			end			if old then				return old(self,observer)			end		end	end)end

*a small, purple glow that serves almost no purpose other than to keep Charlie away.

You can just make charlie not attack the character ever, light source isn't needed for that.

 

 

 

*Small sanity boost at night

--master_postinitinst.components.sanity.night_drain_mult = -0.1

*custom recipes for custom weapons and items for the Magic tab

--common_postinitinst:AddTag("crykovcrafter") 

--modmainlocal TECH = GLOBAL.TECHlocal RECIPETABS = GLOBAL.RECIPETABSlocal customweapon_recipe = AddRecipe("customweapon", { Ingredient("nightmarefuel", 1), Ingredient("twigs", 1), Ingredient("cutgrass", 2) }, RECIPETABS.MAGIC, TECH.NONE, nil, nil, nil, nil, "crykovcrafter", "images/inventoryimages/customweapon.xml")

thank you Zackreaver!! that helps a lot!! anywhere i could +rep you?

 

To elaborate on the Nightmare Fuel thing, i'd love to add some kind of custom-animated aura around her, but I think I'd like to start with nightmare fuel just casually appearing in her inventory.

 

and i do want a small glow, it would be part of the character's aesthetic.

one more question. where is common_postinit? is that just the crykov.lua folder?

 

found it! it was quite obvious ;x;

I don't really know, I guess you could like the post, doesn't really matter to me though

Here's a very basic version of this

--master_postinitinst:AddComponent("periodicspawner")inst.components.periodicspawner:SetPrefab("nightmarefuel")inst.components.periodicspawner:SetRandomTimes(480,960)inst.components.periodicspawner:SetOnSpawnFn(function(inst,fuel)    if fuel then        inst.components.inventory:GiveItem(fuel)    endend)

The only problem with this is when you reload a save the timer resets, this can be fixed with a little bit of work though.

 

But that's why I said it's a very simple method for it.

 

 

 

one more question. where is common_postinit? is that just the crykov.lua folder?

 

Yes, it's in the crykov.lua

 

It's right above the function master_postinit

thank u so much for the quick reply! i can throw all this stuff in before me and my friend's session.

 

any know about how to add a glow? actually, i think i can just drag the Torch script over. thank you for the help !!

Edited August 26, 2015 by Crykov

[Zackreaver]

any know about how to add a glow?

--master_postinit

inst.glow = GLOBAL.SpawnPrefab("minerhatlight")

inst.glow.Light:SetRadius(10)

inst.glow.Light:SetColour(1,1,0)

inst.glow.entity:SetParent(inst.entity)

i believe the code is faulty. I tried to add it under master_postinit, and i got the error saying the parenthesis at the end was unexpected. I removed it, and it told me it expected the parenthesis at the end.

Thank you for the purple gem script. can you test these scripts before you send me them?

[Zackreaver]

i believe the code is faulty.

Yeah I forgot to end the function, I fixed my original post

inst.components.periodicspawner:SetOnSpawnFn(function(inst,fuel)         if fuel then                 inst.components.inventory:GiveItem(fuel)         end ) 

should actually be

inst.components.periodicspawner:SetOnSpawnFn(function(inst,fuel)         if fuel then                 inst.components.inventory:GiveItem(fuel)         end end) 

can you test these scripts before you send me them?

 

My apologies for that, most of the code I gave is very simple, I just forgot to end that one function there.

 

Also, after rereading WX78's code, I realized I forgot to initialize the levels to 0

 

so be sure to put this into your master_postinit

--master_postinitinst.level = 0

thank u very much!! i feel like i should be paying you for this, you're basically making my mod for me

 

what's your steam account? i would like to add you in the credits :0

the nightmare fuel script doesn't seem to work still, i've tried using LongUpdate(x) to test it as well as just playing normally, but no nightmare fuel appears. is "fuel" supposed to be "nightmarefuel" ?

@Crykov, my contribution.

I fixed the PeriodicSpawner, a Start() was missing there.

I made a Wilson replacement mod.

 

All you need to do is put the modmain on the modmain things, and the master_postinit things in the master_postinit things, and etc.

Pretty straightforward.

whoaa! you put all sorts of scripts that i needed in there!

 

thank you so much !!

@DarkXero sorry if i seems like i'm milking you now, you don't have to reply if you don't want to, as these extras aren't that important.
 
can i set my character to say something when it begins raining? like, "i better get to cover soon" or something like that.
 
also, my character gets the Eat prompt for the gem, but when i right-click to eat it or drag it onto my character, nothing happens.

@Crykov,

AddStategraphActionHandler("crykov", processhandler)

should have "wilson", because all characters use the SGwilson stategraph.

 

For the rain thing, include this in your prefab file

local function OnStartRain(inst)	if inst:HasTag("playerghost") then		inst.components.talker:Say("Good thing it goes through me.")	else		inst.components.talker:Say("I shouldn't let water soak me.")	endend

and inside the master_postinit

inst:WatchWorldState("startrain", OnStartRain)

[Crykov]

thank you! the rain thing works perfectly.

 

however, i'm still unable to eat the gem, even after correcting the wilson/crykov thing

...

local processhandler = ActionHandler(ACTIONS.PROCESSPURPLE, "Eat")

Here you changed "eat", to "Eat".

Change it back.

 

"eat" refers to a state name, not the action string.

[Crykov]

oh, i thought I fixed that already.

 

sorry about that!! i'm kind of a scripting noob ;;

 

i've tested it out and everything seems to work ! thank you so much!!
