character Help Making a Custom Character

[Andreasgamming]

I had since removed the line of code but the first file I posted still has it.

inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = sanityfn
local function sanityfn(inst)local delta = 0if TheWorld.state.isday thendelta = -0.25 elseif TheWorld.state.isdusk thendelta = 0.5 elseif TheWorld.state.isnight thendelta = 0.95 endreturn delta end

I grabbed it from the file I had posted before. this code caused a lot of problems in my mod. I am also currently trying to make the weapon for her, everything works perfectly except for one thing, I cannot see the inventory image nor the item swap image so I believe I have some major coding errors in that one.

[ZupaleX]

It was not working because you define the function after using it.Invert the order of the 2 lines and it should work better.

[Andreasgamming]

Well the Error I get says that an equals is expected near one of the Deltas in the code.

[ZupaleX]

I sure hope that what you copied/paste is not how it is formatted in your script?

[Andreasgamming]

No I fixed it up, i.e making sure the then statements are actual statements and not literally connected to the deltas, I did miss one when I fixed it and handled that but the problem now is the equals sign that is expected near one of the deltas.

[Andreasgamming]

local function sanityfn(inst)local delta = 0 if TheWorld.state.isday then delta = -0.25 elseif TheWorld.state.isdusk then delta = 0.5 elseif TheWorld.state.isnight then delta = 0.95 end return delta 

end
inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = sanityfn

This is the code that is "fixed".

[ZupaleX]

local function sanityfn(inst)
	local delta = 0

	if TheWorld.state.isday then 
		delta = -0.25 
	elseif TheWorld.state.isdusk then 
		delta = 0.5 
	elseif TheWorld.state.isnight then 
		delta = 0.95 
	end 

	return delta 
end

inst.components.sanity.custom_rate_fn = sanityfn

Try that one

[Andreasgamming]

It is working but that is a bit easier to read than how I have it XD

[ZupaleX]

That's the purpose of good formatting

[Andreasgamming]

Now there is one more thing, She is supposed to have a weapon called cruel moon I have it done artwork and everything but it doesn't show up which seems to be a common problem on the thread I was following . What I mean is the inventory image doesn't show up nor does the swap image but the ground image does, I followed the instructions completely but I got a feeling I am missing something pretty big which is causing this problem.  I have it separate from her right now and will attempt to transfer everything when it is ready.

I think I may have fixed it.

[Andreasgamming]

one question how do I resize a sprite in Spriter? I fixed the problem now the scythe is as big as a full grown tree and I cannot seem to be able to change it's size.

[ZupaleX]

You have properties for the scale in spriter when you click on an entity. That should do the trick. Let me know if it doesn't

[Andreasgamming]

I edited to size using the properties and it is not working :/ I did remove the atlas and recompile it before starting up the game.

[ZupaleX]

I think then you actually need to increase the size of the png itself

[Andreasgamming]

I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do that...

[ZupaleX]

if you want to rescale everything by the same factor there is a workaround though. you can use AnimState:SetScale(some_value)

[Andreasgamming]

I already scaled it, and replaced the original that was in the file. but where would I put that code in the "weaponname".lua?

[Andreasgamming]

Alright, How do I make an equipable talk? Also How do I make it kill a player if said player who picks it up if sait player is missing a specific tag?

[Lumina]

look at files related to lucy the axe for the speaking part.

[Andreasgamming]

I have but I'm not completely sure on how exactly it works, I don't want my weapon to be sounding and saying the same thing as lucy.

[Andreasgamming]

Okay, How do I make an animation loop? I have the loop enabled in spriter but that is to just loop the playback of said animation. Also I still want that ability to kill any character without the tag "keeper"

[Lumina]

 

    inst.AnimState:PlayAnimation("idle",true)

I think the true is for make the anim loop.

 

[Andreasgamming]

Alright thanks ^_^

[Andreasgamming]

Alright new question, Is there a way to have a custom Description of an item from each of the characters. For instance when you describe something like a flower as wilson he says something about but other character say something else? I'm not very good at explaining stuff.
