Title: How to add new damage types.
Post by: efrenespartano on September 15, 2018, 05:17:20 am

Hello there! This is a simple question, I don't know if anyone else has make it earlier.

I would like to add a few new damage types to a project I'm working on with alinare.

How to do it? I suppose that this new damage types will need to be added to armors too, how to do it?

Thanks in advance!

Check Piratez. That mod uses this feature.

Some snippets:

Code: [Select]

armors:
  - type: STR_SYNTH_SPACE_SUIT_UC
    damageModifier:
      - 0.2
      - 0.5
      - 0.15
      - 0.5
      - 0.5
      - 0.75
      - 0.25
      - 0.4
      - 0.25
      - 0.0
      - 0.0
      - 0.25
      - 0.5
      - 0.5
      - 1.0
      - 0.25
      - 0.1
      - 0.0
items:
  - type: STR_WHIP
    damageType: 15
I don't know if it's as simple as that but you can check the mod for yourself and try with your own mod to find out.
