Quick Question

How do I add drops to things like Stalagmites?

I've already modified a simular mod (Mineable Gems) that lets me change the drops of Boulders, Gold Veined Boulders, and Rocky Boulders. But I'd really like to be able to modify the drops of Stalagmites.

Add the lootdropper component to the prefab.

 

local loot = {    "whatever",    "whatever",}local function fn()    --blah blah    inst:AddComponent("lootdropper")    inst.components.lootdropper:SetLoot(loot)        --blah blahend

For starters, find the prefab file for stalagmites. It's not rock.lua, but somewhere in the data/scripts/prefabs directory (aka folder). Opening said file will reveal loot tables like this:

SetSharedLootTable( 'low_rock',
{
    {'rocks',         1.00},
    {'flint',       1.00},
    {'goldnugget',  0.25},
    {'flint',       0.30},
})

 

You should edit them in your modmain.lua using an AddSimPostInit() function:

 

AddSimPostInit(function()

--set the tables here

end)

 

You can find out prefab names (like "goldnugget" or "stalagmite_tall" by going to the very end of the prefab files)
