using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;
namespace Acceptance.Items
{
    public class Sumarbrander : ModItem
    {
        public override void SetStaticDefaults()
        {
            DisplayName.SetDefault("Sumarbrander");
            Tooltip.SetDefault("A little talktive...");
        }
        public override void SetDefaults()
        {
            item.damage = 59;
            item.melee = true;
            item.width = 1;
            item.height = 1;
            item.useTime = 18;
            item.useAnimation = 18;
            item.useStyle = 1;
            item.knockBack = 6;
            item.value = 10001;
            item.rare = 3;
            item.UseSound = SoundID.Item4;
            item.autoReuse = true;
        }
            public override void AddRecipes();
      
            ModRecipe recipe = new ModRecipe(mod);
            recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID.HellstoneBar, 10);
            recipe.AddTile(TileID.WorkBenches);
            recipe.SetResult(this);
            recipe.AddRecipe();
      
        }
    }
}

usually you'd want to include the error message.

Luckily I noticed this semicolon that you need to delete and replace with { : public override void AddRecipes();

Thank you!

Hi... Ummm... This...

This is my first mod, FYI.

 

[Umm]

So ummm...

looks like you aren't on windows: Standalone - [1.3] tModLoader - A Modding API

The ModLoader folder is not shown in my Terraria files. I did get Tmodloader and it has been working properly on my Terraria game, but I did move the Terraria files from %UserProfile%/Documents/My Games. Could this be causing the folder to show up somewhere else?

 

[supermush]

I get this

Help! when i type item.damage = 50 it says that it doesn't exist in the current context.I dont know how to fix this thank you to anyone who helps me.

 

[shiny gallade]

Did you verify that the variable exists? Like, you checked if item.damage is declared somewhere in the code

If you've had an installation prior to 1.4, it might not appear after updating. You can either re-install tModLoader manually or download it from Steam.
Also make sure you're using the correct executable for tModLoader.

I can't connect Terraria.ModLoader

Question, does C++ work with tModloader

 

[Creeper da Snek]

Question, does C++ work with tModloader

No. Only C# works.

 

[Tydra]

No. Only C# works.

Oh well, thanks though!

Hi, I'm trying to create a test sword, but I keep on getting this error:

I saw someone else on this thread with the same problem, but they had a double directory if I understood correctly.
My ~/.../Mod Sources/modOfLagomorphaexe has the .cs, .csproj, build.txt, description.txt, and the Properties folder with the launch settings. I made a seperate Items folder (in /modOfLagomorphaexe) containing the Cyberbunnysword.png and Cyberbunnysword.cs files, as no test sword was included in the skeleton.

This error only happens after I try loading the mod itself; the compiling works fine. My code is basically exactly the same from a working example.

what does it mean because I want to change the crafting station from Workbenches to Iron Anvil

It should be just "Anvils" if you use Visual studio it should show you all errors in the code.
