tModLoader Tutorial: [3] Items

TheGeckoGamer said:
So, slight error, this is the logs:

Code: 
c:\Users\TheGeckoGamer\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mod Sources\VarietyMod\VarietyMod\Items\SplitterAxe.cs(35,39) : error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Player' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

c:\Users\TheGeckoGamer\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mod Sources\VarietyMod\VarietyMod\Items\SplitterAxe.cs(35,54) : error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'NPC' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

and this is my code:

Code: 
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace VarietyMod.Items
{
    public class SplitterAxe : ModItem
    {
        public override void SetDefaults()
        {
            item.name = "Armor Splitter";
            item.damage = 50;
            item.melee = true;
            item.width = 40;
            item.height = 40;
            item.toolTip = "An axe that can break even the toughest of armor.";
            item.useTime = 20;
            item.useAnimation = 20;
            item.useStyle = 1;
            item.knockBack = 6;
            item.value = 100000;
            item.rare = 2;
            item.useSound = 1;
            item.autoReuse = true;
        }

        public override void AddRecipes()
        {
            ModRecipe recipe = new ModRecipe(mod);
            recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID.DirtBlock, 10);
            recipe.AddTile(TileID.WorkBenches);
            recipe.SetResult(this);
            recipe.AddRecipe();
        }

        public override void OnHitNPC(Player player, NPC target, int damage, float knockback, bool crit)
        {

            target.AddBuff(BuffID.BrokenArmor, 30);

        }
    }
}

I don't know what this issue is, I'm just trying to make the axe give the broken armor debuff.

Player and NPC are classes in Terraria, so you need using Terraria; at the top.
 
I have a couple questions:

So the mod skeleton has the use animation set to this:
If I wanted to make a spear, would I change the animation, and if so, what should I change it to?
Also, would 3 cover spears, or just shortswords?

EDIT #5,608: I can't read.

Also, I keep getting this error:
Code: 
Missing mod: GoofsnSpoofs/Items/Scalpel
   at Terraria.ModLoader.ModLoader.GetTexture(String name)
   at Terraria.ModLoader.Mod.SetupContent()
   at Terraria.ModLoader.ModLoader.do_Load(Object threadContext)
This is my code:
Code: 
using Terraria.ID;

using Terraria.ModLoader;


namespace GoofsnSpoofs.Items
{

   public class Scalpel : ModItem
   {

     public override void SetDefaults()
     {

       item.name = "Scalpel";

       item.damage = 7;

       item.melee = true;

       item.width = 60;

       item.height = 60;

       item.toolTip = "";

       item.useTime = 20;

       item.useAnimation = 20;

       item.useStyle = 3;

       item.knockBack = 4;

       item.value = 160;

       item.rare = 0;

       item.UseSound = SoundID.Item19;

       item.autoReuse = false;
       }


     public override void AddRecipes()

     {
       ModRecipe recipe = new ModRecipe(mod);

       recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID.IronBar, 5);

       recipe.AddTile(TileID.WorkBenches);

       recipe.SetResult(this);
  
     recipe.AddRecipe();

     }

   }

}
Am I using the wrong file type for my image, or did I mess something up in the coding?

Thanks, the filename I unzipped to was capitalized in a spot where the original .zip wasn't. Whoops.

Edit: New issue,

You forgot to close the for loop on the part where you remove the recipes.
 
where i dont know coding very well thats al ive started and dont really understand where to close the loop
[doublepost=1486835102,1486834609][/doublepost]yeah i cant find out where to close the loop for all i know it looks fine to me but im new to modding and trying to atleast finish my foundation of the mod so i can start adding items and stuff but i cant finish the foundation of the mod in the first place

That's the line I'm talking about. You'll need to put a ) at the end of that line.

Double check all your syntax. By this I mean your line endings (semicolons and the sorts) and check ALL your opening and closing brackets. For every opening bracket there should be a closing at the correct position.

Could you post your current error and code once again? I'll be home later today, so I can rework your code to show you the do's and don'ts.
 
this is my current code i reset it because nothing was working and yet this one still doesnt work this is the only part im having troubles with. te items and stuff i can code but this foundation for that wont work in general yet i cant seem to find any duplicate of anything even removed everything from the mod sources that might have same codes
Code: 
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace LenZoReforged
{
    class LenZoReforged : Mod

Look in your Steam Terraria folder. If you see a file called `Newtonsoft.json` remove it.
