Webbers ability (I dont understand)

[BlueSideWind]

so judging from other people mods like 

 

"Wilsdow the Widow"

 

and

 

"webbers" folder

 

folder I found some codes for spider friends and spider brains but when I try to insert my character in there instead it doesn't work. Can someone explain how I can add it to my character? I tried looking up it on the forum but it doesnt seem to be working.

 

I also plan to add "instead of feeding meat = friend"

 

"Killing enemies= spawning spider warriors with 10 health" infinite loyalty. With regular attack damage they usually do. Only attacks if you attack someone or allow right click command attack

Webber's lua file:

What you need to use from there is the common_init function (which you need to rename to common_postinit later), which adds 3 tags and modifies the locomotor component of webber:

    inst:AddTag("spiderwhisperer")    inst:AddTag("monster")    inst:AddTag(UPGRADETYPES.SPIDER.."_upgradeuser")    inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

"spiderwhisperer" makes your character able to give meat to spiders, so you wouldn't want that one, but it also makes spiders not drain your sanity.

"monster" makes spiders non aggressive to you, but does the opposite for pigs.

UPGRADETYPES.SPIDER.."_upgradeuser" lets you upgrade spider dens with silk.

The last line makes it so you don't wake up spiders from their dens.

 

As for making spider warriors that follow you and have 10 hp, I have no idea, you would have to look at

wathgrithr.lua for the onkilled function.

spiderqueen.lua OR wendy.lua / abigail.lua / abigailflower.lua OR chester.lua OR pigman.lua AND probably follower.lua for the followers/minions part of the code.

Which I tried to look at. And it made no sense. Because i'm terrible.

 

 

If you already tried to write the code, post it here and someone might be able to help you out.
