[modding] more code trouble~

[Kaira]

I'm trying to set it up for my character to heal for an amount of damage dealt to him every time he gets hurt, but I'm having dificulty with messin around with data and other lil variables (I've managed to work the code to heal a set amount every hit, so no need to worry about that junk. Just finding a buncha crashes now that I'm trying to get more complicated)

Quote

local function HealSelf(inst, data)
    local target = data.target
    local brokenhealth = inst.components.health:GetPercent()
    local brokensanity = inst.components.sanity:GetPercent()
    --local brokendamage = inst.components.damagetracker.self:damage_done()
    if inst.components.health:IsDead() then
        return
    elseif brokensanity > 0 then
        inst.components.health:DoDelta(target.components.combat.defaultdamage) -- crashes at local target = data.target, dunno if this works yet
        inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(-2)
    end
end

I've also dug around in the health files hoping to find something that tells how much damage I've just taken in that moment and try to plug that in, but couldnt really make out if anything did that for me. Currently tearing up the combat/wigfrid files for this session.

@ImDaMisterL think we can get this moved to the modding forums?

[Kaira]

Mmm, It's been too long since I've touched these forums. Sorry about that :T

Something like this?

	
	local function OnHit(inst, attacker, damage)
		print("OnHit", inst, attacker, damage)
		
		local sanity = inst.components.sanity:GetPercent()
		
		if inst.components.health:IsDead() then
			return
		elseif sanity > 0 then
			inst.components.health:DoDelta(damage) -- Is he invincible while he has sanity?
			inst.components.sanity:DoDelta(-2)
		end
	end
	
	inst.components.combat:SetOnHit(OnHit)

Oh so close, thanks for that~ Bout to head off for the night, but first:

What does that print line do?

Is there a way to save that number for a different function? (The main healtask is set to happen a short time after being hit with a DoTaskInTime listener)

 

and on the side, he won't be invincible, I just like to code in lil chunks to make sure each lil thing works before playing the number game to balance things out.

@Kaira

The print line is just there for testing purpose, it displays text/values on the console. Also, yup, you can save it anywhere, like:

inst.damage_taken = inst.damage_taken + damage
inst.components.combat.damage_taken = inst.components.combat.damage_taken + damage

Just do inst.variable_name to "declare" a new variable. Annnd (in this case) don't forget to initialize it to 0.

Perfect~ Thanks for that~
