Damage weapons on hitting person or mob?

[mcfan]

Since for some reason I can't post on Mod releases I'm posting this here.

Is there a mod or some code that I can add to the default to make it so when one hits a person or mob it damages the weapon? I saw in the castle mod the battleaxe and it gets damaged when you hit a mob but I don't know about hitting a person.

Is there any way to do it with your simple mobs mod?

Why are you speaking in german piltzadam. I can't understand you.

In simple mobs I added the following code to the on_punch function to add wear to tools/weapons

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

local weapon = hitter:get_wielded_item()
            if weapon:get_definition().tool_capabilities ~= nil then
                local wear = ( weapon:get_definition().tool_capabilities.full_punch_interval / 75 ) * 65535
                weapon:add_wear(wear)
                hitter:set_wielded_item(weapon)
            end


My logic was the better weapons have a lower full punch interval so with this formula the better weapons wear slower. I didn't want to dig into groupcaps to get the number of uses.

Lol - that is HARD!

[mcfan]

brandonreese where do I add this code?

[BrandonReese]

If you are using simple mobs, in api.lua, just below

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

on_punch = function(self, hitter)


Somewhere around line 480, I've modded my simple mobs so I don't know the exact line number.

Can I add this to the player.lua to?

[minermoder27]

player.lua is all about a player's skin and model. No punching code involved.

[mcfan]

Too bad. So is there no way to make it so when I hit someone it will damage the weapon?

[BrandonReese]

You could add an on_use function to each weapon but I wouldn't advise that.

[mcfan]

Why wouldn't you?
