How would I find the players current health and mana? I want to make an accessory that heals the player while their heath and mana are at certain values
Click to expand...
I would probably just do the value check in the effects of the accessories, sort of something like this.

Code: 
public override void Effects(Player player)
{
     if(player.statLife < 200 && player.statMana < 200)
     {
        //Does something.
     }
}
 
Hello all.
I''m trying to modify the dialogue that's said by town NPCs, but I can't get it to work. It seems like the PostSetChat hook isn't working, even after I reduced the coode to it's bare minimum.
Code: 
public override string PostSetChat(string chat) //called after chat has been set.
{
    Main.NewText("Type: " + npc.type);
    return "Hello World";
}
I have this in my MNPC class, which I know works because I'm successfully using the PostSetupShop hook in the same class.

Could anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong? Thanks.
 
This probably doesn't belong here, but i can't get tAPI to even run anymore
It crashes with no message before it even opens up
I found some sort of crash log that says:

Sounds like you might need to verify your games cache.

Am i seriously the only person in existence that can't launch tAPI?
Click to expand...
Terraria 1.2.4.1 and earlier had a file named 'CraftButton.xnb' in the folder 'SteamApps\common\Terraria\Content\Images'.

Terraria 1.3 and newer have files named 'Craft_Toggle_0.xnb' through 'Craft_Toggle_3.xnb' in the folder 'SteamApps\common\Terraria\Content\Images\UI'.

tAPI is made for Terraria 1.2.4.1, and thus uses the images Terraria 1.2.4.1 uses.

It seems as though you updated Terraria to 1.3, which deletes the old CraftButton file, and creates the 4 new Craft_Toggle buttons. And now you're trying to run tAPI and it can't find the CraftButton file. If you were to get this file, and any other files the 1.3 update may have deleted, you should be able to run tAPI again. Just ask around in the forums for someone that hasn't updated yet to share that file with you. And make sure to put it in the folder I mentioned above.

Edit:
I used a file recovery program to undelete the file. I'll post it here. If it violates some rule to post it, I'll remove the link.

It's more that just the craft button that was replaced. A whole bunch more like the rain, cursor and player .xnb files were renamed. With some, you could make an educated guess what the old filename was and create a duplicate file with the old name, but the player files have completely different names, like "Skin_Arm" became "Player_0_7".

Fortunately, I have a computer with the previous version of Terraria. Tomorrow, I'll find out which files were renamed and - if I'm allowed - upload them here.

The error message indicates where the problem occurs:
