Need help with codes that do not work, please.

I'm fairly new to the modding community in DST and this would be my 2nd mod. I've done pretty much the basic of the basic coding but I am having problems with making my character fit with these perks.

Here is the code:

local MakePlayerCharacter = require "prefabs/player_common"local assets = {        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_basic.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_idles_shiver.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_axe.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_pickaxe.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_shovel.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_blowdart.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_eat.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_item.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_uniqueitem.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_bugnet.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_fishing.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_actions_boomerang.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_bush_hat.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_attacks.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_idles.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_rebirth.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_jump.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_amulet_resurrect.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_teleport.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/wilson_fx.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/player_one_man_band.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/shadow_hands.zip" ),        Asset( "SOUND", "sound/sfx.fsb" ),        Asset( "SOUND", "sound/wilson.fsb" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/beard.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/jet.zip" ),        Asset( "ANIM", "anim/ghost_jet_build.zip" ),}local prefabs = {		"beardhair",}local function common_postinit(inst)    inst:AddTag("ghostwithhat")    --bearded (from beard component) added to pristine state for optimization    inst:AddTag("bearded")endlocal function OnResetBeard(inst)    inst.AnimState:ClearOverrideSymbol("beard")end--tune the beard economy...local BEARD_DAYS = { 4, 8, 16 }local BEARD_BITS = { 1, 3,  9 }local function OnGrowShortBeard(inst)    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "beard", "beard_short")    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[1]endlocal function OnGrowMediumBeard(inst)    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "beard", "beard_medium")    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[2]endlocal function OnGrowLongBeard(inst)    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "beard", "beard_long")    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[3]endlocal function master_postinit(inst)    inst:AddComponent("beard")    inst.components.beard.onreset = OnResetBeard    inst.components.beard.prize = "beardhair"    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[1], OnGrowShortBeard)    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[2], OnGrowMediumBeard)    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[3], OnGrowLongBeard)endlocal start_inv = {}-- Custom starting itemslocal start_inv = {}-- When the character is revived from humanlocal function onbecamehuman(inst)	-- Set speed when loading or reviving from ghost (optional)	inst.components.locomotor.walkspeed = 4endlocal function updatespeed(inst, phase)    if phase == "day" then        inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 7     elseif phase == "dusk" then        inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 5     elseif phase == "night" then        inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 3     endend-- When loading or spawning the characterlocal function onload(inst)    inst:ListenForEvent("ms_respawnedfromghost", onbecamehuman)    if not inst:HasTag("playerghost") then        onbecamehuman(inst)    endend-- This initializes for both the server and client.

Both function updatespeed and function onchange does't work. I've looked and hopped from one thread to the next without avail of fixing the problem. Maybe someone here could help?

Perks I wanted:
Moves fast at daytime
Moves normal at dusk
Moves slow at night

 

Hunger >= 150 (x3 damage)
Hunger >= 75 (x2 damage)
Hunger < 75 (x1 damage)

I haven't tried the beard part yet, not really that important.
Thanks for those who could answer.

Your main problems were a messy lua file and not using your functions.

You needed to assign your functions to a worldstate or event, like this:

	inst:WatchWorldState("daytime", function(inst) updatespeed(inst) end , TheWorld)	inst:WatchWorldState("dusktime", function(inst) updatespeed(inst) end , TheWorld)	inst:WatchWorldState("nighttime", function(inst) updatespeed(inst) end , TheWorld)

inst:ListenForEvent("hungerdelta", onhungerdelta)

Thanks, I've just tried it and the event for hunger works perfectly. I do apologize for having a messy lua file. I just started coding yesterday so I'm still learning. 

A little bit trouble with the updatespeed right now and I am trying to solve it. 

Thank you for the wonderful help @DrSmugleaf

No problem! If you have trouble organizing things look at a base game file. If the updatespeed function is giving you trouble, try adding GLOBAL. before every TheWorld:

local function updatespeed(inst)	if GLOBAL.TheWorld.state.isday then		inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 7	elseif GLOBAL.TheWorld.state.isdusk then		inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 5	elseif GLOBAL.TheWorld.state.isnight then		inst.components.locomotor.runspeed = 3	endend

Mostly because with the mod env I don't remember where GLOBAL.'s go

I tried doing this but the game crashes with the log saying that GLOBAL is undeclared or something. I'll try fixing it way later. Haven't slept yet and still have classes in about an hour. Haha. 

(*It seems the speed set during daytime works since I've tried changing the value to 1 and my character moved like a snail. I'm guessing it is not reading dusk and night.)

I really appreciate the help though. Thank you very much.
