code help Adding custom stat to character

[AkaiNight]

Well i cut it short. If it's posiible to make custom stats like health or hunger or sanity? And also if it's possible to make them shown up under health bar? (forgive my english it's not my main language.) 

there is what i want to do

first one soulholder for every kill captures 1 soul

and the second one for tools when cut a tree or mine a thing or hammer a thing or razor a thing shovel a thing or pick a ground 1 points up

and the third one for catch bugs or fish for every catch 1 points up or everytime you use pen of phoenix (my custom item) 1 points up

 

thanks for helping and forgive my english.

I'm personally going to be working on this myself in the near future for my own character. The thing you're referring too is called a widget. Unfortunately I don't have anymore details then that at the moment since I have to research it. But I should be able to help out with you making a counter for the actions you mentioned above.

So another question then. If it's possible to understand that a code is working or not? I mean i have a code for gain sanity when kitykit around and lose sanity when the dog one is around but i can't understand is it working or not.

 

Thanks by the way

You can use print to print out a message that you can look at while in game to see if your function triggered or not. After you put print into the function you want to check test it in game and to check and see if your message appears press the ` key on your keyboard (it's just below ESC), your message should appear there. If you're unsure feel free to post the code you're using and I can take a look.

print("This is my message.")

Well i'll try but here is the code

--Critters sanity aura
local function critter_SanityAura(inst)
	local x, y, z = inst.Transform:GetWorldPosition()
	local delta = 0
	local ents = TheSim:FindEntities(x, y, z, 20, {"critter_puppy", "player" , "critter_kitten"})
	local bonus_sanity = nil
	local distsq = nil
    	local totalDelta = nil
	
	for k, v in pairs(ents) do
		if v ~= inst then
			if v.entity == "critter_puppy" then
				bonus_sanity = -TUNING.SANITYAURA_MEDIUM
				distsq = math.max(inst:GetDistanceSqToInst(v), 1)
				delta = delta + bonus_sanity / distsq
				
			elseif v.entity == "critter_kitten" then
				bonus_sanity = TUNING.SANITYAURA_SMALL
				distsq = math.max(inst:GetDistanceSqToInst(v), 1)
				delta = delta + bonus_sanity / distsq
				
			elseif v.entity == "player" then
				bonus_sanity = -TUNING.SANITYAURA_SMALL
				distsq = math.max(inst:GetDistanceSqToInst(v), 1)
				delta = delta + bonus_sanity / distsq
			
			else
			end
		end
        totalDelta = totalDelta + delta
	end
    
    if #ents > 0 then
    	totalDelta = totalDelta / #ents
    else
    	totalDelta = 0
    end
    
	return totalDelta
end

 

oh i forget here is master postinit

 

inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = critter_SanityAura

What I would do is add the print("Message") into each of the if v.entity statements to see if they're triggering while you're near the entity. My guess would be the function isn't constantly being called, but I'm not sure on the exact setup for custom_rate_fn.

Edit:

I think adding this into your master postinit should help, it'll call the function every second to see if nearby entities are around and if so apply your sanity drain/buff.

inst:DoPeriodicTask(1, function() critter_SanityAura(inst) end)

or

inst:DoPeriodicTask(1, critter_SanityAura)

if v.entity == "critter_puppy" then

should be

if v.prefab == "critter_puppy" then

if "critter_puppy" is the name of the prefab of your critter (the name you use to spawn it).

 

elseif v.entity == "player" then

should be

elseif v:HasTag("player") then

because players can have different prefabs like "wilson", or "willow" (or other mod characters). But they all have the player tag.
