I require assistance!

So, I'm making an amulet, when on being hit, you have a chance of stunlocking enemies (like the ruins crown hat chances of trigger a shield) in a radius and damaging them, And, pretty Idk how to do that, someone has an idea?

Like this?

specialamulet.lua:

local assets = {
	Asset("ANIM", "anim/amulets.zip"),
	Asset("ANIM", "anim/torso_amulets.zip"),
}

local STUN_CHANCE = 0.5
local STUN_DURATION = 5
local STUN_RANGE = 15
local STUN_DAMAGE = 34

local YES_TAGS = {"_combat"}
local NO_TAGS = {"player", "shadow", "shadowminion"}

local function AfterStun(enemy)
	if enemy and enemy:IsValid() then
		enemy:RestartBrain()
	end
end

local function stun_fn(owner, data)
	local attacker = data and data.attacker
	if attacker and math.random() < STUN_CHANCE then
		local x, y, z = owner.Transform:GetWorldPosition()
		local ents = TheSim:FindEntities(x, y, z, STUN_RANGE, YES_TAGS, NO_TAGS)
		for i, v in ipairs(ents) do
			if v.sg and v.sg:HasState("hit") and v.components.health and not v.components.health:IsDead()
					and not v.sg:HasStateTag("transform")
					and not v.sg:HasStateTag("nointerrupt")
					and not v.sg:HasStateTag("frozen") then
				v.components.combat:GetAttacked(owner, STUN_DAMAGE)
				v.sg:GoToState("hit")
				if v.components.locomotor then
					v.components.locomotor:Stop()
				end
				v:StopBrain()
				v:DoTaskInTime(STUN_DURATION, AfterStun)
			end
		end
	end 
end

local function onequip_blue(inst, owner)
    owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_body", "torso_amulets", "blueamulet")
    inst:ListenForEvent("attacked", stun_fn, owner)
end

local function onunequip_blue(inst, owner)
    owner.AnimState:ClearOverrideSymbol("swap_body")
    inst:RemoveEventCallback("attacked", stun_fn, owner)
end

local function blue()
	local inst = CreateEntity()
	inst.entity:AddTransform()
	inst.entity:AddAnimState()
	inst.entity:AddNetwork()

	MakeInventoryPhysics(inst)

	inst.AnimState:SetBank("amulets")

	inst.foleysound = "dontstarve/movement/foley/jewlery"

	inst.entity:SetPristine()

	end

	inst:AddComponent("inspectable")

	inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip(onequip_blue)
	inst.components.equippable:SetOnUnequip(onunequip_blue)

	inst:AddComponent("inventoryitem")
	inst.components.inventoryitem.imagename = "blueamulet"

	return inst
end

return Prefab("specialamulet", blue, assets)

Calling for help again.

How do I make consume uses, I mean, finite uses. I tried but I got nothing but crashes

[Aquaterion]

--in the blue function:
inst:AddComponent("finiteuses")
inst.components.finiteuses:SetMaxUses(10)
inst.components.finiteuses:SetUses(10)

--in the stun_fn function:
local amulet = owner.components.inventory:GetEquippedItem(EQUIPSLOTS.BODY)
if amulet and amulet.components.finiteuses then
	amulet.components.finiteuses:Use(1)
end
