Standalone [1.3] tModLoader - A Modding API

imkSushi said:
I have a question for @jopojelly:
What is this page for:
http://javid.ddns.net/tModLoader/popularmodstoday.php
I figure that the first number is the amount of downloads today (in 24 hours or since midnight?), but what is the second number for?

Hrrrrmm, how did you even find that, looking around are we.

Yeah, today downloads and yesterday downloads. I might change the number that is sent to tmodloader for the popularity sort , so this is my experiment with that. Yesterday isn't correct yet, since i just added the columns within the last 24 hours.

Ok i installed it but where are my players, how can i port them from vanilla to tmod loader T_T

simple go to this place on ur pc for windows (i dont know the others)

C:\Users\THIS BEING UR NAME\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Players
C:\Users\THIS BEING UR NAME\Documents\My Games\Terraria\Players

move from terraria players into modloader players

and thats how u move players (worlds are same thing)
 
jopojelly

so far i can only use banners to make recipes show or not

how can i use like buffs on player
biome around player
or a item in the players inv

public class clyablock : ModRecipe
{
int GreenSlime = Item.NPCtoBanner(NPCID.GreenSlime);
public clyablock(Mod mod) : base(mod)
{
}
public override bool RecipeAvailable()
{
return NPC.killCount[GreenSlime] >= 10;
}

I've been using that to see how other mods are doing compared to mine. Also, it lets me check my download count away from my home PC.
What really annoys me is this bit:
http://javid.ddns.net/tModLoader/private/
What is in it that is so private?
 
How can you make an NPC be able to be affected by a debuff? And can I make the debuff spawn a new NPC in place of the old one? (Like what if I want to make a debuff that 'zombifies' mobs?)

Start with:
Player player = Main.player[Main.myPlayer];

Followed by:
// has a buff?
if(player.HasBuff(BuffID.TwinEyesMinion) > -1){return true}

// in a Zone/Biome?
if(player.ZoneCorrupt){return true}

// Has a particular item?
if(player.HasItem(mod.ItemType("SpectreGun"))){return true}

You mean files that if edited could break things.
Is it stuff like the online code behind the Mod Browser?

Also, my mod browser has been taking a long time to reload mods, much longer than usual, even though I recently got a better wifi connection for my PC. Just wondering if there was a problem causing that.[/QUOTE]

No, they can't be edited. There are some scripts that propagate changes to the file host, scripts that I wrote while trying different things out, logs from the publish script.

There are some scripts that take arguments that I haven't proofed against browser users stumbling upon them. To be honest, they might not break anything.


The Mod Browser is super busy today, don't know why. It actually makes it hard for me to browse the internet since I share the same bandwidth.

so where do i put the line

Player player = Main.player[Main.myPlayer];


as the one in wisp looks like this

return Main.player[Main.myPlayer].HasItem(mod.ItemType("SpectreGun"));

You could do it on one line or 2, doesn't matter.
return Main.player[Main.myPlayer].HasItem(mod.ItemType("SpectreGun")));
or
Player player = Main.player[Main.myPlayer];
return player.HasItem(mod.ItemType("SpectreGun")));

so how can i use && with 2 of em when they look like this?

Player player = Main.player[Main.myPlayer];
if(player.HasBuff(BuffID.TwinEyesMinion) > -1){return true}
Player player = Main.player[Main.myPlayer];
if(player.ZoneCorrupt){return true}

Do you mean that you want to give it a max speed, or have it move at a consistent speed?

If you want to give it a max speed, look at this example which is an extension of an earlier example. Note, I'm still using the code that makes it follow the mouse.
Code: 
int maxSpeed = 8; //best keep this below 16

public override void AI()
{
Vector2 acceleration = Vector2.Normalize(Main.MouseWorld - projectile.Center); //convert the distance from this projectile to the mouse to a unit-vector
projectile.velocity += acceleration * 1.5f; //add one and a half of my acceleration to my velocity
projectile.velocity *= 0.95f; //slow down slightly, i.e. apply drag
if (projectile.velocity.Length() > maxSpeed)//if going too fast
{
projectile.velocity.Normalize();//normalise
projectile.velocity *= maxSpeed;//and multiply by my max speed
}
projectile.rotation = projectile.velocity.ToRotation(); //calculate the direction that this projectile is going and rotate to face that way.
}
If you simply want it to move at a fixed rate, the following will do, but the movement will be very abrupt.
Code: 
int maxSpeed = 8; //best keep this below 16

public override void AI()
{
projectile.velocity = Vector2.Normalize(Main.MouseWorld - projectile.Center) * maxSpeed; //normalise the difference between my position and multiply by my desired speed.
projectile.rotation = projectile.velocity.ToRotation(); //calculate the direction that this projectile is going and rotate to face that way.
}
Also, I think my findNearest function could be more efficient. Replace the first three 'if' statements inside the 'for' loop with the following:
Code: 
if (!Terraria.Main.npc[i].CanBeChasedBy(projectile))//Don't target anything it shouldn't
continue;

I have a big problem now :(
the projectile just goes out a little distance and then stops until there is something to home in on. then it homes.
EDIT: Then it just sits there and never homes
Code: 
using System;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;

namespace Pack.Projectiles
{
    public class TS : ModProjectile
    {
        public override void SetDefaults()
        {
            projectile.name = "Templite Spell";
            projectile.width = 8;
            projectile.height = 8;
            projectile.friendly = true;
            projectile.penetrate = 10;
            projectile.aiStyle = 0;
            projectile.magic = true;
            projectile.tileCollide = true;
            projectile.timeLeft = 60000;
            projectile.light = 10f;
        }
        public NPC FindNearest(Vector2 pos)
        {
            NPC nearest = null;
            float oldDist = 1001;
            float newDist = 1000;
            for (int i = 0; i < Terraria.Main.npc.Length - 1; i++)
            {
                if (!Collision.CanHit(pos, 1, 1, Main.npc[i].position, Main.npc[i].width, Main.npc[i].height))
                    continue;
                if (!Terraria.Main.npc[i].CanBeChasedBy(projectile))
                    continue;
                if (nearest == null)
                    nearest = Terraria.Main.npc[i];
                else
                {
                    oldDist = Vector2.Distance(pos, nearest.position);
                    newDist = Vector2.Distance(pos, Terraria.Main.npc[i].position);
                    if (newDist < oldDist)
                        nearest = Terraria.Main.npc[i];
                }
            }
            return nearest;
        }
        int maxSpeed = 10;
        public override void AI()
        {
            NPC nearest = this.FindNearest(projectile.Center);
            Vector2 acceleration = Vector2.Zero;
            projectile.velocity += acceleration * 1.5f;
            projectile.velocity *= 0.95f;
            if (projectile.velocity.Length() > maxSpeed)
            {
                projectile.velocity.Normalize();
                projectile.velocity *= maxSpeed;
            }
            projectile.rotation = projectile.velocity.ToRotation();
        }
    }
}

where's the mistake in my code?
please help
 
For some odd reason, I have these files called twld and tsw as well as my wld and wld.bak files, but whenever I try to go on a world, I delete the twld and tsw files, but whenever I go on it deletes my backup and when I make a new world, when I use CheatSheet, it just crashes.

someone plz help im sad
 
Sorry, i know this is a stupid question, but how does one fix this :/

You haven't put the movement animation sprite for your chestplate.
[doublepost=1466754750,1466754576][/doublepost]Look at the ExampleMod, if you want to create a piece of armour you have to create additional .png with the animation (in this case the body)
