Greetings my fellow programmers.

 

Some friends and me are setting up a server, although we do need to do some TFC balance changes, in terms of specific items stats and so on, and I've been tasked to write an addon for it.

 

I'll be more than capable of doing the necessary changes although I've been poking around the code to see where I can find the following, so I can extend or override them in my addon:

 

Armor Rating (Has been found)

Base Weapon Stats

Base Tool Strengths

Base Health

The objects and/or functions that applies damage to monsters

The objects and/or functions that applies the tool strength to blocks and entities

The objects and/or functions that deals with Hunger & Thirst

 

The rest of writing an addon I should be more than capable of figuring out myself, although any help with that would also be very much appreciated.

 

If this information is secret in any way shape or form, I'm sorry to have asked.

 

If it is something you can supply information for, but don't want to do it publicly, my email is [email protected]

 

The addon itself will not be "public" and will be limited to the server I'll be running with my friends.

 

Thank you very much for the hopefully forthcoming assistance.

I recommend that you get familiar with the TFC codebase then come to IRC to ask for access to specific parts of the code via the API if it doesn't already exist. Damaging monsters and players for instance can be handled via the EntityArmorCalcEvent in the TFC API. We're always looking to expand the API, I just need requests.

Thanks for the reply, I'll join the IRC when I get the chance

I might be sounding like a complete newb at this (and I am, whatever), but I need a way to cancel/repurpose an item drop event from breaking blocks. I know the 'inheritance' way to do it, but that's not ideal way to do it, I reckon.

Typically item dropping is handled by vanilla, so unless I totally redid that(I'm not gonna) extending is the only way to do it.

Booo forge

Well, okay. I'll see what I can do. Doesn't that mean I gotta alter the terrain gen too then?
