[FIXED] Inactivity = Insanity

Not_Wilson · March 20, 2016

I'm currently modding a football player character who gains sanity by working such as cutting trees, mining rocks, he loves to be productive.

So if he sits around a while, he starts to lose sanity.

I don't think there's really a component or tag to make the prefab "listen" for. Or is there?

@PeterA ((I don't know if you can confirm if there is))

If there is none, how would I go about tackling this? I don't wanna do like... Listen for "working" component and give a sanity boost and if the person isn't then drop their sanity, because I feel that constant drain would be detrimental to play, and not fun to play with.

if u mean not moving, then hastag("idle") works fine

Well, then that could be easily countered by simply moving around constantly, walking around the campfire, ect...

there should be more tags u can see in SGWilson

Replace instances of "UniqueModNameHere" with something unique to allow higher mod compatibility.

This'll make it so that chopping/mining/picking anything resets the timer.

Default 10 seconds before sanity penalty applies of -10 sanity/second rate.

local function ResetTimer(inst)
    inst.DrainSanityRate_UniqueModNameHere = nil
    if(inst.DrainSanityTimer_UniqueModNameHere~=nil)
    then
        inst.DrainSanityTimer_UniqueModNameHere:Cancel()
        inst.DrainSanityTimer_UniqueModNameHere = nil
    end
    inst.DrainSanityTimer_UniqueModNameHere = inst:DoTaskInTime(10,
        function()
            inst.DrainSanityRate_UniqueModNameHere = -10
            inst.DrainSanityTimer_UniqueModNameHere = nil
        end
    )
end
local function ResetTimer_Event(inst, data)
    ResetTimer(inst)
end
AddPrefabPostInit("wilson",
    function(inst)
        if(inst.components~=nil and inst.components.sanity~=nil)
        then
            ResetTimer(inst)
            local custom_rate_fn_old = inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn
            inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = function(inst)
                local deltaRate = (inst.DrainSanityRate_UniqueModNameHere or 0)
                if(custom_rate_fn_old~=nil)
                then
                    deltaRate = deltaRate + custom_rate_fn_old(inst)
                end
                return deltaRate
            end
            inst:ListenForEvent("working", ResetTimer_Event)
            inst:ListenForEvent("finishedwork", ResetTimer_Event)
            inst:ListenForEvent("picksomething", ResetTimer_Event)
        end

This is line 86 and 87 for context

You shouldn't be adding an AddPrefabPostInit in a prefab.

What I have provided is a standalone that affects wilson.

Use the double indented portion of that code block in your character's init callback if you want it in there.

        if(inst.components~=nil and inst.components.sanity~=nil)
        then
            ResetTimer(inst)
            local custom_rate_fn_old = inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn
            inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = function(inst)
                local deltaRate = (inst.DrainSanityRate_Buster or 0)
                if(custom_rate_fn_old~=nil)
                then
                    deltaRate = deltaRate + custom_rate_fn_old(inst)
                end
                return deltaRate
            end
            inst:ListenForEvent("working", ResetTimer_Event)
            inst:ListenForEvent("finishedwork", ResetTimer_Event)
            inst:ListenForEvent("picksomething", ResetTimer_Event)
        end

Are you certain? Because I've tried that about 4 times now and I'm getting a crash each time.

It's 2am I should probably rest before coding

If you want me to integrate it into your code portion, then feel free to post your prefab here.

Oh uhh alright. I'm sorry, this whole coding thing is still rather new to me. Aside from being huffy thank you for being patient.

Should resemble this.

It should be in the master_postinit function since this is where components are initialized.

Don't forget to change the UniqueModNameHere string to something unique.

Lest someone, somewhere, reuses the exact string and creates variable name conflicts.
