[Help] Socketable Sword

[Zeklo]

With the addition of the Cratered Moonrock and the ability to socket in gems I thought it would be cool to implement a similar system for a sword, however, I get an error upon inserting a gem in my item—All I did was copy the code and rename the corresponding data. It left no log.

If you know anything about it and could point me in the right direction I could really use the help!
Thank you for your time.

I've managed to get socketing into a custom item to not crash, but I wanna isolate each type so they each get different abilities. Ideas?

On top of that would it be possible to allow for the socketing of Opal?

[Zeklo]

I've now went and made a setup like the amulets to keep multiple prefabs in a single file, but can't seem to cross the build socketing function on over. So basically I either got one where I can socket in gems and I got on with specific isolated abilities, but not both at the same time and I can't seem to merge them into one properly.

[Zeklo]

Alright I managed to figure out it out! My only two remaining questions are:

How can I allow the inputting of Opal? Done, but very inefficient 

How can I refund the particular gem upon changing? - Unlike the moon eyes you can change whenever you'd like.

I guess another question for the sake of not making another thread.

How can I get the drain arrow to appear on the health badge?

the DoDelta function in the health component contains an argument to drain health over time. I guess this will also trigger the arrow

local function Suffocate(inst)
	local wetness = inst.components.moisture:GetMoisture()
	if wetness == 0 then
		inst.components.health:DoDelta(-.15, true, "suffocation")

	end
end

inst:DoPeriodicTask (1, Suffocate)

This is the current way I'm trying to do it. Bare with me since I'm quite inexperienced.

hm... you are right, this does not help... the only diffrence I noticed is that if this value is true, there will be no "hurt" sound...

I searched the game scripts, but did not find out how to do it, sry =/

Oh alright! Thanks for you time!
