Armor with web-walking

[Fidu]

i searched a whole day and still can't find it. So i really hope there is one kind soul out there who just tell me, what the code in webbers prefetch is that makes him walk with normal speed on spiderwebs.

I wanna make an armor with that feature.

this is for DTS not DS.

I really appreciat your help.

This makes your character walk without triggering spider webs or being slowed by them

inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

but from my knowledge it can only be put on entities, not armor, I think..

I think you need to add to your onequip function 

owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

And on uneqquip

owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(true)

Changing "mymodname" to something unique, since it's being stored on the player as a variable rather than having a local table somewhere for each player entity.

Thank you all very much for your answers. And you CarlZalph... shame on you ^^ you did all the work already
Thank you so very much. I will try it out this week and report back.

Ok guys, i am absolutely new to this as you might be able to tell already 
Sooo what i tried to do is this: instead of creating something completely new from the getgo i "stole" an armor from a mod-kit that goes in the direction i want it to be for my own. It has a lot of nice features already, looks good and is even named "spiderarmor". Here is the link to the kit: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=760679972&searchtext=kit
Its really impressive. But what this "spiderarmor" is missing is exactly what i wanted to create on my own... you guessed it: web-walking.
now... you guys know this stuff waaaay better than i do, so can you help me get the web-walking implemented in this already great work? I don't know where to put it...
Here is the code from the spider-armor from the kit i mentioned:

ps: i was able to tweak some things here and there... but i am still unable to seriously create and edit stuff  
And i tried to implement the codes @makar5000 mentioned into this... didn't work. maybe i put it in the wrong place...

So what you'll want to to do is add 

owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

into the function that says local function onequip. Basically this means when you equip this item you can walk on spider webs without slowing down.

Then add

owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(true)

You want to add this into the local function onunequip. Which will remove the web walking ability from the owner. Now the only issue you'll see with this is if Webber personally equips this armor and removes it he won't be able to web walk anymore. Normally you can add an IF statement that says 'if the owner isn't webber, remove the webwalking', but I won't know the exact coding for that off the top of my head.

@RedHairedHero

i did exactly what you told me but it still doesn't work  

Am i just being stupid or did i do something wrong and can't see it?

Thank you all guys for being such a great help and for all your patience with me.

local function onequip(inst, owner)
    owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_body", "swap_spiderarmor", "swap_spiderarmor")
	owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)
		if owner and owner.components.leader then
        owner.components.leader:RemoveFollowersByTag("pig")
        owner:AddTag("monster")
    end
    inst.updatetask = inst:DoPeriodicTask(0.5, spider_update, 1)
--		inst.components.fueled:StartConsuming()
end

local function onunequip(inst, owner)
  owner.AnimState:ClearOverrideSymbol("swap_body")
	owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(true)
	if owner and owner.components.leader then
	  if not owner:HasTag("spiderwhisperer") then --Webber has to stay
			owner:RemoveTag("monster")
		end
	end
--	inst.components.fueled:StopConsuming()
end

[RedHairedHero]

It looks fine to me, not sure why it's not working. I would test this directly on your character to see if it works.

Put

inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

into your character's lua file. You'll want to put it into the master postinit function and see if it works. Normally with the ability you walk at normal speed and spiders don't come out of their nest when you walk on the webbing.

[Fidu]

@RedHairedHero

I did what you told me and it doesn't work either. I play Caitlin.

-- This initializes for both clients and the host
local common_postinit = function(inst)
	-- Minimap icon
	inst.MiniMapEntity:SetIcon("caitlin.tex")
	
	inst:AddTag("ophelia")
end
 
-- This initializes for the host only
local master_postinit = function(inst)
	inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)
	inst.level = 0
	inst.shadows = {}

	inst.soundsname = "wallace"
   
	-- Starting Stats

 

[RedHairedHero]

Hm, odd that it's not working. I'll have to do some more research when I get home tonight and get back to you on that.

[Fidu]

Thank you very much. I don't have any clue whatsoever ^^

Edited January 26, 2017 by Fidu

[RedHairedHero]

I personally used the line of code on a piece of equipment and it does end up working. Another way you can tell it's working is spiders won't actually come out of the spider eggs when you step on the webbing while your item is equipped and when you take it off and step on the webbing they will come out. 

[Fidu]

@RedHairedHero They don't come out... you are right on that. BUT the walking speed is considerably slowed down. At least in my case. 

ps: because of this i thought there might be two different codes. 

inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep

to make them stay in the spidereggs... And another one to prevent your reduction in movementspeed on spider webs. 

Edited January 27, 2017 by Fidu

[Fidu]

Soooo i cant figure it out... is it just something wrong on my end or can i do something about it?

[RedHairedHero]

Off the top of my head the other option is to go into the locomotor.lua file which is in the components folder and look through there. I can't look at the moment, but the SetTriggersCreep will derive from that file. If you want us to double check the file you can upload that as well and see if everything is setup properly.

Here is the code to the spiderarmor. Spiders stay and don't attack you, but you are still slowed down when you walk on webs.

The reason our suggestions weren't working earlier is because we were saying 

inst.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

when you should actually be using

owner.components.locomotor:SetTriggersCreep(false)

Just put this up where you put the onequip monster tag and for the unequip change it to true. I tested this and it does work.

[Fidu]

@RedHairedHero finally you nailed it !!!
I love you. 

It works fine now exactly as i wanted.
