[HELP PLS] item changes

[DestroyerofNorth]

I want that my character has more durability with something like pickaxe and that he don't get slowed from piggyback. He allready has a slower movement.

i can't give you an exact code, but seeing as no one has replied, i'd like to help anyway.
 
i don't know much about modding, but as far as I know there's no way to make a character's walkspeed not change when wearing a piggyback without effecting every piggyback on the server.
 
you could possibly find some sort of script to add to your character.lua that says something along the lines of: "if 'piggyback' is equipped, set speedmult to __" to counteract the walk speed drop.
 
what i'd suggest is copy+pasting the Walking Cane's script onto your character, as it is an equippable item that is capable of changing your speed. how to change it to the piggyback is beyond me, though.
 
also what i'd suggest is giving your character the ability to make a custom pickaxe that only your character can make. you can make a custom item with this tutorial and use the files from an existing pickaxe in dont starve together>data>scripts
 
you can make custom recipes by putting this in character.lua (replace "mycharacter" with your character file's name)
 

inst:AddTag("mycharactercrafter")

 
and then putting this script in modmain.lua under master_postinit, and editing the ingredients and tab to your liking.

local customweapon = AddRecipe("customweapon", {Ingredient("itemname", 1), Ingredient("itemname", 1),Ingredient("itemname", 1) }, RECIPETABS.CUSTOMTAB, TECH.NONE, nil, nil, nil, nil, "mycharactercrafter")

CUSTOMTAB can be MAGIC, SCIENCE, TOOLS, FOOD, etc. Tech determines the machine you need to prototype it. TECH.NONE means no prototype needed. TECH.SCIENCE_ONE means you need a science machine to make it. TECH.SCIENCE_TWO means you need an alchemy machine to make it. same goes for the magic tab.

thx guys

 

@DarkXero what do i need to change to change the uses?

[DarkXero]

@DestroyerofNorth:

num = num / 2

changes the 1 use of the pickaxe into 0.5.

So it doubles the durability.

 

Up the 2 to increase the durability, lower the 2 to decrease it.

thx

[DestroyerofNorth]

i think i added it wrong do i need to seperate something or all in the sript prefabs?

[DarkXero]

That all goes in modmain.

[DestroyerofNorth]

i think i use the wrong name formy char

[DarkXero]

Put the prefab of your char instead of "wilson".

[DestroyerofNorth]

but what is the prefab of my char the name of the prefab script?

[DarkXero]

The prefab of your character is the name you put in

return MakePlayerCharacter("wx78", ...)

there.
