Instrument Item Mod Help.

[THISTINYTHING]

Hate to be a bother yet again but I'm stuck.
I have my item which is a microphone, but I can't seem to get it to play. I have it so it so you can hold it and it has the action button to Play. But it won't do anything. I have copied some code from the pan flute to do this, but I can't seem to get the play function to work because I don't know how to really write it and I'm honestly throwing random code in and seeing if it works.

I think it's almost there but again the action just doesn't want to play.

 

Here's the broken code.

Spoiler

local assets =
{
    Asset("ANIM", "anim/microphone.zip"),
    Asset("ANIM", "anim/swap_microphone.zip"),

    Asset("ATLAS", "images/inventoryimages/microphone.xml"),
    Asset("IMAGE", "images/inventoryimages/microphone.tex"),
}

local function onequip(inst, owner)
    owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_object", "swap_microphone", "microphone")
    owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_carry")
    owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_normal")
end

local function onunequip(inst, owner)
    owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_carry")
    owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_normal")
end

local function onfinished(inst, owner)
    local owner = inst.components.inventoryitem and inst.components.inventoryitem.owner
        if owner then
        local brokentool = SpawnPrefab("brokentool")
        brokentool.Transform:SetPosition(inst.Transform:GetWorldPosition() )
    inst:Remove()
    end
end

local function HearMicrophone(inst, musician, instrument)
    if inst ~= musician and
        (TheNet:GetPVPEnabled() or not inst:HasTag("player")) and
        not (inst.components.freezable ~= nil and inst.components.freezable:IsFrozen()) and
        not (inst.components.pinnable ~= nil and inst.components.pinnable:IsStuck()) then
        if inst.components.sleeper ~= nil then
            inst.components.sleeper:AddSleepiness(10, TUNING.MICROPHONE_SLEEPTIME)
        elseif inst.components.grogginess ~= nil then
            inst.components.grogginess:AddGrogginess(10, TUNING.MICROPHONE_SLEEPTIME)
        else
            inst:PushEvent("knockedout")
        end
    end
end

 

local function fn()

    local inst = CreateEntity()
    local trans = inst.entity:AddTransform()
    local anim = inst.entity:AddAnimState()
    
    MakeInventoryPhysics(inst)
    inst.entity:AddNetwork()
   
    anim:SetBank("microphone")
    anim:SetBuild("microphone")
    anim:PlayAnimation("idle")

    inst.entity:SetPristine()

    if not TheWorld.ismastersim then
        return inst
    end

    ---------

    inst:AddComponent("instrument")
    
    inst:AddComponent("inventoryitem")
    inst.components.inventoryitem.imagename = "microphone"
    inst.components.inventoryitem.atlasname = "images/inventoryimages/microphone.xml"
    ---------
    inst:AddComponent("equippable")
    inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip( onequip )
    inst.components.equippable:SetOnUnequip( onunequip )
    ---------

    inst.components.instrument.range = TUNING.MICROPHONE_SLEEPRANGE
    inst.components.instrument:SetOnHeardFn(HearMicrophone)

    inst:AddComponent("tool")
    inst.components.tool:SetAction(ACTIONS.PLAY)

    inst:AddComponent("finiteuses")
  inst.components.finiteuses:SetMaxUses(100)
    inst.components.finiteuses:SetUses(100)
    inst.components.finiteuses:SetOnFinished(inst.Remove)
    inst.components.finiteuses:SetConsumption(ACTIONS.PLAY, 1)

   

    MakeHauntableLaunch(inst)

    return inst
end

return  Prefab("common/inventory/microphone", fn, assets)

didn't look at your code, but there was another thread about instruments and maybe it will help:

 

[Neu7ral]

Panflute code works with the flute tag
inst:AddTag("flute")

Equipable items that doesn't have weapon components is recomended to use this that for avoid a bug of characters doing punch instead of doing a swing.
inst:AddTag("nopunch")

both should put before

if not TheWorld.ismastersim then
        return inst
end

Also, you'll have a new problem, since the instrument will show as a panflute when you play it, I know there's a way to change that, but I don't remember well.
