Game is not loading my new item

[AireAyquaza]

Hello ! I got an issue when making a new equipable item using the wand tutorial.

I make all idle anim and swap anim with spriter and compiled them with autocompiler

I'd make a new craft for this item but when i try to craft it i get "I can't do that"

In my server log i found a line with "Could not preload undefined prefab (myitem)"

 

The prefab is in the prefab list on modmain

 

What is wrong with my item ? my code is exaclty the same for the prefab file than the wand tutorial

You're gonna have to provide more than that. Maybe screenshots of your file directories, and some code

The modmain file :

local Ingredient = GLOBAL.Ingredient
local RECIPETABS = GLOBAL.RECIPETABS
local STRINGS    = GLOBAL.STRINGS
local TECH       = GLOBAL.TECH
local ACTIONS    = GLOBAL.ACTIONS

AddRecipe("glacialstaff"  , {Ingredient("bluegem", 1)}, mytab, TECH.SCIENCE_TWO, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, "images/inventoryimages/glacialstaff.xml", "glacialstaff.tex")

And the glacialstaff.lua prefab

local function fn(colour)
	local function OnEquip(inst, owner) 
    owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_object", "swap_glacialstaff", "glacialstaff")
    owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_carry") 
    owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_normal") 
  end

  local function OnUnequip(inst, owner) 
    owner.AnimState:Hide("ARM_carry") 
    owner.AnimState:Show("ARM_normal") 
  end

  local inst = CreateEntity()
  local trans = inst.entity:AddTransform()
  local anim = inst.entity:AddAnimState()
  MakeInventoryPhysics(inst)

  anim:SetBank("glacialstaff")
  anim:SetBuild("glacialstaff")
  anim:PlayAnimation("idle")

  inst:AddComponent("inventoryitem")
  inst.components.inventoryitem.imagename = "glacialstaff"
  inst.components.inventoryitem.atlasname = "images/inventoryimages/glacialstaff.xml"

  inst:AddComponent("equippable")
  inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip( OnEquip )
  inst.components.equippable:SetOnUnequip( OnUnequip )

  return inst
end

return  Prefab("common/inventory/glacialstaff", fn, assets, prefabs)

in modmain.lua line 12, you have a typo "PrefabsFiles" should be "PrefabFiles"

[AireAyquaza]

Wow, thank you so much ! This is really stupid x)

[AireAyquaza]

Do you have some tutorial to make swap anim for equipable item ? The wand tutorial tell to make "swap_myitem->BUILD" anim but this is not working on DST :/

owner.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("swap_object", "swap_glacialstaff", "symbol0")

What does "symbol0" mean exactly ?

in your .scml file(which you can open with a texteditor as well) you don't have a name for your folder tag

so the autocompiler automatically names it "symbol" and the id

Thank again for your help, i'm understanding better now. I still not understand how to correctly place the item in the character hand, in spriter there is a kind of circle i can move to set where the item is placed when i equip it, but this and the scale are not well rendered, i missed something again :/

See screenshots

I believe the issue is that you're putting the pivot on the animation, but that animation is not actually used. What you have to do is open .scml in a texteditor again and copy the pivot_x and pivot_y from the animations to the image file

Ok ! I got it, thank you a lot
