Lua Custom item?

[ultrkomm]

Hi!

I'm trying to add a custom item that looks exactly like a sword, but has a special description and when you use it it plays music.

Same sprite and everything, only that when you look at it it says "You see a music sword.", and it plays music upon use.

How would I go about doing this?

Thanks

If it's obtained through a quest or any sort of LUA script, you could use a LUA function to just add the special name to a normal sword, then make another LUA onUse script that checks for the item name, and if the sword is called 'music sword' it'll play music.

Other than that I guess you'll have to edit the items.otb and create a new item with the sword sprite, for it to have a new item id.

What you can do is get the harp script or any musical instrument usage and add it into your sword when in use.
