Removing a loot of the list ?

[Lumina]

Hi,

I would like to replace the "monster meat" drop for the spider by a "small monster meat", but it will implie first to remove the "monster meat" of the lootdropper list. How can i do this ?

    inst:AddComponent("lootdropper")
    inst.components.lootdropper:AddRandomLoot("monstermeat", 1)
    inst.components.lootdropper:AddRandomLoot("silk", .5)
    inst.components.lootdropper:AddRandomLoot("spidergland", .5)
    inst.components.lootdropper:AddRandomHauntedLoot("spidergland", 1)
    inst.components.lootdropper.numrandomloot = 1

with AddPrefabPostInit for spider, try this:
 

for i,entry in pairs(GLOBAL.deepcopy(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot)) do
    if entry.prefab=="monstermeat" then
         table.remove(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot, entry)
         inst.components.lootdropper.totalrandomweight = inst.components.lootdropper.totalrandomweight - entry.weight
    end
end

I got this error, did i do something wrong ?

The line in question :

 

         table.remove(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot, entry)

ah yes, I forgt that this needs a number, not an entry.
 

Try:

GLOBAL.table.removetablevalue(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot, entry)

So it doesn't crash anymore, but it doesn't work either. Spiders still drop meat.

local function SpiderPostInit( inst )
        print("step 1.")


for i,entry in pairs(GLOBAL.deepcopy(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot)) do
    if entry.prefab=="monstermeat" then
        print("step 2.")
	GLOBAL.table.removetablevalue(inst.components.lootdropper.randomloot, entry)
	inst.components.lootdropper.totalrandomweight = inst.components.lootdropper.totalrandomweight - entry.weight
    end
end

    if inst.components.lootdropper then
        print("step 3.")
    inst.components.lootdropper:AddRandomLoot("log", 1)
    end
 
    return inst
end

AddPrefabPostInit( "spider", SpiderPostInit) 

 

[00:01:09]: step 1.	
[00:01:09]: step 2.	
[00:01:09]: step 3.	

So at least something is working, but not the line removing the meat or the add of the loot.

(I used log for testing purpose)

[DarkXero]

local lootdropper = inst.components.lootdropper

local key
local weight
for i, v in ipairs(lootdropper.randomloot) do
	if v.prefab == "monstermeat" then
		key = i
		weight = v.weight
		break
	end
end

table.remove(lootdropper.randomloot, key)
lootdropper.totalrandomweight = lootdropper.totalrandomweight - weight

Use table.remove and give it the key, not the entry.

Thanks to both of you, now it's working fine !
