Projectiles - Need Help

[Fancy_Fox_Pers]

Hi, I have used the waterprojectiles code from the game and copy/pasted around until I got a working projectile. The projectile works just fine, however, I don't know how to make it do damage on impact. I added a weapon component and added the damage (5) but it still doesn't do anything. There might be a correlation with the fact that the game log tells me everytime that there was already a weapon component, but I don't quite know why. Must have something to do with the components, can't find anything though. Can someone have a look at the code and tell me what's wrong, please? I just need it to do damage.

 

Thank you!

If you add change this

local function OnHit(inst, attacker, target)
    -- inst.SoundEmitter:PlaySound("dontstarve/creatures/pengull/splash") -- Crashes???
    -- SpawnPrefab("waterballoon_splash").Transform:SetPosition(inst.Transform:GetWorldPosition())
    -- inst.components.wateryprotection:SpreadProtection(inst)
    inst:Remove()
end

to this maybe you'll be able to damage to things when it hits the ground or "explodes"? I dunno, but hopefully this works for you !!

local function OnHit(inst, attacker, target)

local radius_1 = TheSim:FindEntities(x, y, z, 5,{"_health", "_combat"})

  for k, v in pairs(radius_1) do
     if v and v.components.health and not v.components.health:IsDead() then
        v.sg:GoToState("hit")
        v.components.health:DoDelta(-999)
     end
  end

   inst:DoTaskInTime(.25, function()
      inst:Remove()
   end)
end

EDIT: If this works then you don't need the weapon component .
