Trying to add filth to RangedIndustrialGrenades

[florisjan]

I am trying to use

Code Select Expand

<preExplosionSpawnThingDef>Filth_Fuel</preExplosionSpawnThingDef> from

Code Select Expand

<defName>Bullet_IncendiaryLauncher</defName> to add filth to other ranged weapons. I copy, paste and alter the def in Filth_Various.xml and turn it into:

Code Select Expand

<ThingDef ParentName="BaseFilth">
    <defName>Filth_Crumbles</defName>
    <label>Crumbles</label>
    <description>Crumbles.</description>
    <useHitPoints>true</useHitPoints>
    <tickerType>Normal</tickerType>
    <statBases>
      <Beauty>-12</Beauty>
      <Cleanliness>-15</Cleanliness>
    </statBases>
    <graphicData>
      <texPath>Things/Filth/Crumbles</texPath>
    </graphicData>
<pathCost>5</pathCost>
    <filth>
      <rainWashes>true</rainWashes>
      <cleaningWorkToReduceThickness>70</cleaningWorkToReduceThickness>
      <canFilthAttach>true</canFilthAttach>
    </filth>
  </ThingDef>


And add

Code Select Expand

<preExplosionSpawnThingDef>Filth_Fuel</preExplosionSpawnThingDef> to

Code Select Expand

<defName>Proj_GrenadeFrag</defName> and

Code Select Expand

<defName>Weapon_GrenadeEMP</defName>

When I just add

Code Select Expand

<preExplosionSpawnThingDef>Filth_Fuel</preExplosionSpawnThingDef> to the defs it works fine and puddles of fuel appear when firing the grenades.

However when I use my crumbles def, my texture appears as filth, but an exception is constantly thrown when the weapon is used. I assume I am doing something wrong in the directory/file naming. Which is basically:

\Textures\Things\Filth\Crumbles\CrumblesA.png
\Textures\Things\Filth\Crumbles\CrumblesB.png
\Textures\Things\Filth\Crumbles\CrumblesC.png

Code Select Expand

  Exception ticking Filth_Crumbles573312 (at (120, 0, 4)): System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not implemented.

Verse.Log:Error(String, Boolean)
Verse.TickList:Tick()
Verse.TickManager:DoSingleTick()
Verse.TickManager:TickManagerUpdate()

Verse.Root_Play:Update()

As said the texture is being shown, so it's not a matter of the files not being found.

Thanks a lot!

The exception is because you are missing a thingClass entry in your def.

[LWM]

BaseFilth specifies    <thingClass>Filth</thingClass>

So....I dunno what's going on!

If you copy Filth_Fuel exactly and just change the defName to your name, does it work?  It's a painful way to figure out what's going on, but changing one line at a time might narrow things down...

That was the problem. Thank you very much!
