[solved] Two characters share the same variable (how to stop?)

[Anstarveo]

If >= 2 players use my custom character in the same server then the skill won't work unless all of them activate it.

I think the game use the same variable (local ZenRest, local MidStr, etc.) instead of individual variable for each of them? How can I fix this?

modmain.lua

put these variables into a component and add it to the characters.

[Anstarveo]

Can you give an example?

[Serpens]

local MyComp = Class(function(self, inst)
    self.inst = inst
    self.myvariable = nil
    -- you can add as many vairables you like to
end)


function MyComp:OnSave()
    local data = {}
    data.myvariable = self.myvariable -- save variable
    return data
end

function MyComp:OnLoad(data)
    if data.myvariable ~= nil then
        self.myvariable = data.myvariable -- load my variable
    end
end


return MyComp

put this into a script in your mod folder scripts/components. Of course you can rename "MyComp" and "myvariable" to whatever you prefer, but the name of the file should be the same name like you chose for "MyComp"but in lower letters.
And in your characterfile you make "inst:AddComponent("MyComp")" where you also added other components (I guess it is in master_postinit.

Now whenever you change the value for your character change it with:
inst.components.mycomp.myvariable = x

I follow your advice, but I change "inst:AddComponent("MyComp")" to "inst:AddComponent("mycomp") and everything works like a charm! Thank you very much!
