Changing starting inventory

[rdg_crazier]

I'm slowing trying to figure out how stuff works, in the end hoping to make a character. I ran into a problem with starting inventory. I see that Maxwell and willow both have stuff right at the start, so to figure out how that works I have been trying to add stuff to the list. For instance Maxwell starts with a nightsword, his book, purple gem, and I think 3 nightmare fuels. well I was playing around and am trying to add more nightmare fuels. I save and close the file. Start the game and load a new world, and it doesn't add the new item(s) I add. What am I missing. Believe me Ive been searching for hours.

Does anyone have an answer?

Did you make a table (the thing with curly braces)? Did you give the name of the table to the constructor at the last line?

nvm, you try editing Maxwell, don't you? Do as said below.

Are you editing the correct file? DLCs overwrite vanilla files at runtime, so make sure that isn't happening.

yeah I was editing only the vanilla files, I needed to do the dlc files
