help Editing prefabs

[Cunning fox]

Hey all! I'm trying to edit prefab so it will work with my mod. Is it posible to somehow eddit some functions and add some components to prefab without re-adding it?

If someoe'll help me, I'll give him some skins such as:

Tuxedo Gloves

Green Sweater Vest

Knee Pants

Blue Sneakers

Without much information this is as generic as I can make it.

AddPrefabPostInit(
    "someprefabname",
    function(inst)
        if GLOBAL.TheWorld.ismastersim
        then
            inst:AddComponent("somecomponentname")
        end
        local somefunction_old = inst.somefunction
        if somefunction_old
        then
            inst.somefunction = function(self, arg1, arg2, ...)
                -- Prehook here
                somefunction_old(self, arg1, arg2, ...)
                -- Posthook here
            end
        end
    end
)

What is _old for? I need to add it to the name of my function?

"Somefunction_old" is an example name of a variable you can use to store old version of the function, before you replaced it with a new, custom one.

It allows you to use the old function when needed.
