Modifying stats through items

[zeltak]

I tried to add EquipmentItem component to a weapon, so I could modify user's stats, for example:

Code: Select all

{
		class = "EquipmentItem",
		energy = -5,
},

but all it does is write it to the item. How can I actually change the user's stats (energy in the example) when wielding the weapon? I tried to check scripting reference for Item, ItemAction and EquipmentItem sections but couldn't figure out how to do it.

Code: Select all

defineObject {
	name = "ceremonial_dagger",
	baseObject = "dagger",
	components = {
		{
			class = "EquipmentItem",
			energy = 10,
			health = -10,
			slot = 1,
		}
	}
}

I Believe setting the slot-number is required.. The item above works for me atleast. Also, if it doesn't, try restarting your editor, not just reloading the Project. There are some issues with files being cached sometimes.

Thanks, that works. But what does that slot = 1 mean/represent?

edit: Ah, nvm, figured it out.. I was just blind it seems.
