Custom Recipe? For my character.

[Eumon]

Hi I'm kinda new to this modding thing and I have a problem. Maybe I'm overthinking it but I can't seem to figure out on how to make a custom recipe.

I want this recipe to be a character specific one so only that character is allowed to craft it.

So basically I want my character to craft her own tall bird eggs. (don't ask me why lol)

Am I missing something super obvious and simple? (probably...) Because I have been trying for hours. ehehe QQ

Any help is well appreciated.

AddRecipe("tallbirdegg", { Ingredient("egg", 1), Ingredient("cutgrass", 1) }, RECIPETABS.FARM, TECH.SCIENCE_ONE,nil,nil,nil,nil,"specifictag" )

you can replace the ingredient items and amount by how many you want.

change "specifictag" to a tag that only your character, for example if your character has this;

inst:AddTag("eumon")

then you can change "specifictag" to "eumon"

Ahhh no still no luck. If you can explain to me like I'm 5. xD Step by step would be nice.

did you put it in modmain.lua? and did you change the text "specifictag" to a tag your character has?

[Eumon]

Yep they are in there. Is there a specific place where I have to put it? And what do I do with inst:AddTag("eumon") ?

that was just an example, on the character you want to craft it, add a tag that only they would have, to uniquely identify them. (by doing inst:AddTag("tag") in the common_postinit function)

Then in the recipe, change the text "specifictag" at the end, to the tag you chose, which makes it so only characters with that tag can craft it.

Yes I added the tag and changed the text but it's still not showing up. Do I have to make a lua file for it?

what is this for?

local fn = function() 
--[...]
inst:AddTag("yosh")
AddRecipe("tallbirdegg", { Ingredient("egg", 1), Ingredient("cutgrass", 1) }, RECIPETABS.DRESS, TECH.SCIENCE_ONE,nil,nil,nil,nil,"yosh" )
--[...]
end

also, the

inst:AddTag("yosh")

should go in yosh.lua un the common_postinit function
