I can't even start the game, I did put my terraria inside the vanilla file and used the patcher to generate the modded version.
But after I put the modded version inside the terraria folder, I can't run it. When I run it, it said there is something wrong with the terraria.
I need help QAAQ

You have probably forgot a paste file of the examplemod, no? :x

Reinstall Terraria, then you have just to put all modded file of the compressed modloader file in your folder Terraria, then you launch.

Try with removing code one per one. This method is very good for found bug. Yes, you need test after each time, but this is the only means for fix a "invisible" bug. And use a vanilla aistyle is for me a bad idea for a boss npc, i prefer rewrite(and paste) code ^^.

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

i watched the tutorial from al0n37, i have all the exact same code, but idk why this happens...

Snrasha · Jul 10, 2016

You have also the examplemod where you have two boss for example. Use that also.

Your problem is not in your code(i think), this is setdefault where you have probably put a bad value, i suppose

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

WELL I FOUND THE BUG:

it was the knockBackResist -.- i put it on 100f and thought its 100%...

Snrasha · Jul 10, 2016

ah, yes, i have not see, knockBackResist is a false word, more less you put, more he resist. Ah ah ^^. (and 0 is a immunity, 20 is huge knockback)

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

ooooohhhh.... so basically he disappeared becus he got 100 times the knockback... WELL

UseTime: shoot projectile each time than he go this value and the max counts is useanimation, so, you need put less in useanimation also.

For your problem of dust, create a special dust and say: No, do not move! This is a stupid question, i think, you need just put velocity zero

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

where is the part i need to change??

Code:

using System;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace SacredTools.Dusts
{
    public class PandolarDust : ModDust
    {
        public override void OnSpawn(Dust dust)
        {
            dust.color = new Color(103, 208, 208); 
            dust.alpha = 1;
            dust.scale = 1.13f;
            dust.velocity *= 1.4f;
            dust.noGravity = true;
            dust.noLight = false;
        }

        public override bool Update(Dust dust)
        {
            dust.position += dust.velocity;
            dust.rotation += dust.velocity.X * 0.15f;
            dust.scale *= 0.99f;                   
            float light = 0.35f * dust.scale;
            Lighting.AddLight(dust.position, light, light, light);
            if (dust.scale < 0.5f)
            {
                dust.active = false;
            }
            return false;
        }
    }
}

public override bool Update(Dust dust)
{
dust.velocity *= 0f;
.... code ....
}

If lag, you have maybe add too many dust. After, maybe than put a dust to zero (Maybe put just dust.velocity = Vector2.Zero) can have problem. (but this is not that, because, no reason ^^)
For add minion, the minion, a npc have be coded per you or this is a vanilla npc?

alecamar · Jul 10, 2016

I think I ´ve found a MP bug:

In singleplayer I can place/remove modded tiles but in multiplayer I can´t.

I have noticed that if try to place a modded tile in multiplayer, it seems to be placed but if I exit the game, it is not saved.

This is the code:

Code:

   public override void SetDefaults()
        {
            Main.tileFrameImportant[Type] = true;
            Main.tileNoAttach[Type] = true;
            Main.tileLavaDeath[Type] = true;
            TileObjectData.newTile.CopyFrom(TileObjectData.Style3x3);
            TileObjectData.newTile.StyleHorizontal = true;
            TileObjectData.newTile.StyleWrapLimit = 36;
            TileObjectData.newTile.Direction = Terraria.Enums.TileObjectDirection.PlaceRight;
            TileObjectData.newAlternate.Direction = TileObjectDirection.PlaceRight;
            animationFrameHeight = 54;
            TileObjectData.newAlternate.CopyFrom(TileObjectData.Style3x3);
            TileObjectData.newAlternate.StyleHorizontal = true;
            TileObjectData.addAlternate(1);
            Main.tileContainer[Type] = true;

            TileObjectData.addTile(Type);
         
     

            dustType = 7;
            disableSmartCursor = true;
            AddMapEntry(new Color(120, 85, 60), "Turret");
        }

        public override void KillMultiTile(int i, int j, int frameX, int frameY)
        {
              
        
                Item.NewItem(i * 16, j * 16, 48, 48, mod.ItemType("MyItem"));
          
        }

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

nvm i fixed it, but pls tell me where do i put the thing to make the dust not move

Code:

using System;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace SacredTools.Dusts
{
    public class ShadowDust : ModDust
    {
        public override void OnSpawn(Dust dust)
        {
            dust.color = new Color(103, 24, 122); 
            dust.alpha = 1;
            dust.scale = 1.13f;
            dust.velocity *= 1.4f;
            dust.noGravity = true;
            dust.noLight = false;
        }

        public override bool Update(Dust dust)
        {
            dust.position += dust.velocity;
            dust.rotation += dust.velocity.X * 0.15f;
            dust.scale *= 0.99f;                   
            float light = 0.35f * dust.scale;
            Lighting.AddLight(dust.position, light, light, light);
            if (dust.scale < 0.5f)
            {
                dust.active = false;
            }
            return false;
        }
    }
}

[doublepost=1468178197,1468178143][/doublepost]when i changed the velocity to 0.1, 0 the thing with the Backup happened

Snrasha · Jul 10, 2016

dust.position += dust.velocity; Maybe, you delete that

Dan Yami · Jul 10, 2016

ok it works now, but, the size of the dust is too small, how do i make em bigger? do i have to make the sprite bigger?
