Well, you cannot overwrite the native addConnector method as far as I know, so you can't use that exact code. You would use something like this:

Code: Select all

function myTestSpawn()
   local o = spawn("rope", party.level, party.x, party.y, 0, party.elevation)
   fw.script:set(o.id..'@item.whateverNamespaceYouWant.onEquipItem',aaa)
  fw.script:set(o.id..'@item.whateverNamespaceYouWant.onUnequipItem',bbb)
end

function aaa()
   print("A")
end

function bbb()
   print("B")
end

Also if the hook framework works similarly to how it does in LoG1 (I haven't tested) function ownership will change from this script component to the fw script if the game is saved and reloaded, so you need to account for that (only reference the global environment in the function).

Yes, that should work, but you should be aware that functions aaa and bbb will be copied when the game is saved, so every item will have their own copies of those functions, I think this is what you meant by "function ownership will change from this script component to the fw script". It's an effect of the serialization method of LoG, references can not be serialized instead the referenced object/fuction will be copied.
If you want to avoid that you should define those hooks like this:

Code: Select all

function myTestSpawn()
   local o = spawn("rope", party.level, party.x, party.y, 0, party.elevation)
   fw.script:set(o.id..'@item.whateverNamespaceYouWant.onEquipItem',function(hook,item,champion,slot) 
      your.script.aaa(item,champion,slot) 
   end)
   fw.script:set(o.id..'@item.whateverNamespaceYouWant.onUnequipItem',function(hook,item,champion,slot) 
      your.script.bbb(item,champion,slot) 
   end)
end

Tip: With cloneObject you can easily register framework hooks to all items.

Code: Select all

modifyObjects{
	filter = {
		hasComponents = {"item"}
	},
	components = {
		fw_addHooks{ 
			class = 'Item',
		}
	}
}

This may be a wrong thread for this discussion, so if you have more questions about the framework, we should continue in the framework thread: viewtopic.php?f=22&t=8345

There's a way to implement a particle effect like the first LoG when a quake is happening?

Is there a way to see all the icons and spell icons available (in their numeric codes order) ? I have a lot of custom spells (with the same icons for now) and I would like to choose their icons without testing every code number with the editor ^^
Also, if no icon matches the spell theme, is there a way to add custom icons ?

What am I doing wrong?

Code: Select all

for i in alcove1:containedItems() do
   weight = weight + i:getWeight()

returns a nil value for containedItems.
If i put alcove1.surface, same thing.

Thanks in advance!

There is no containedItems() method on any object or component in Grimrock 2.
Instead you want the contents() method of SurfaceComponent.

Code: Select all

for i in alcove1.surface:contents() do

How do I setup a default party for a mod? The old method of creating a default_party.dat file from a save and putting it in the mod_assets folder doesn't appear to work for LoG2.

This works fine for the displayed text "Shadow earns 200 XP from the Scholar's Quest"

Code: Select all

hudPrint(party.party:getChampion(1):getName().." earns 200 XP from the Druid's Quest")

Ultimately I would prefer the text to be "DRUID QUEST: Shadow earns 200 XP for discovering a stone circle" but I can't manage to make

Code: Select all

party.party:getChampion(1):getName()..

work inside the " ".

Is this possible at all and if yes, how?

Tested it and it works perfectly - thanks a lot!
