Wouldnt let me ammend this to my old question about the same script

Error: c:\Users\Hailey\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mod Sources\SaobiesMod\Items\Items\Suspicious Chunk.cs(35,26) : error CS0115: 'SaobiesMod.Items.ItemName.AddRecipe()': no suitable method found to override

Full script:

using Terraria;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace SaobiesMod.Items
{
		public class ItemName : ModItem
		{
				public override void SetDefaults()
				{
					item.name = "Suspicious Chunk";
					item.width = 20;
					item.height = 20;
					item.maxStack = 20;
					AddTooltip("A weird hunk of various minerals.";
					item.value = 100;
					item.rare = 1;
					item.useAnimation = 30;
					item.useTime = 30;
					item.useStyle = 4;
					item.consumable = true;
				}
				public override bool CanUseItem(Player player)
				{
					return !NPC.AnyNPCs(mod.NPCType("Gouzibal"));  //you cant spawn this boss multiple times
					return !Main.dayTime; //can use only at night
				}
				public override bool UseItem(Player player)
				{
					NPC.SpawnOnPlayer(plaer.whoAmI, mod.NPCType("Gouzibal")); //boss spawn
					Main.PlayerSound(15, (int)player.position.X (int)player.position.Y, 0);
					
					return true;
				}
				public override void AddRecipe()
				{
					ModRecipe recipe = new ModRecipe(mod);
					recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID:MeteoriteBar, 10);
					recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID:Ruby, 3);
					recipe.AddIngredient(ItemID:StoneBlock, 250);
					recipe.SetResult(this);
					recipe.AddRecipe();
				}
		}
		
}

What I have tried:

I tried removing the ; after AddRecipe(), and that lead to the game saying the same thing. Im brand new to coding, so i dont know what else i could do to fix it

EDIT: Iv also tried changing "public override void AddRecipe()" to "public class Addrecipe()". It returned by saying "{ expected". Even after adding one at the end of the line, it still said this. I added like 3 and after still getting that error returned the code back to how it was "public override void AddRecipe()"

Make sure that the signature of the base class method that you are overriding, ModItem.SetDefaults(), is declared using either the virtual, abstract or override keyword.

How, exactly, would i go about fixing this issue, given this information? Bare in mind this is my first time ever coding, a lot of the terms are lost to me

You need to post your code for the class titled ModItem.

You are trying to override a method called AddRecipe in class ItemName which inherits from your base class of ModItem. It appears that there is no method in class ModItem called AddRecipe, or if there is a method called AddRecipe then it is not an empty method. Meaning, if AddReceipe method does exist in your base class of ModItem that the method in this class has parameters of some sort.

Without seeing the code for class ModItem I won't know for sure and no one else will either. I would encourage you to use the Improve Question widget/link in your question to add the code I've mentioned so we can provide more meaningful assistance.

Hm... see, a script for ModItem doesnt exist. Im following a tutorial for doing all this stuff and wrote down what it said, then changed what it said i could to my liking. From there iv tampered with things on codes that worked so i could figure out what does what and try my own thing

There is no ModItem code, but there is a Items folder, in my mods folder

David_Wimbley 22-Jul-17 1:19am

Then it must be that ModItem is a class from a third party library (i know nothing about terraria.

Change public override void AddRecipe() to public void AddRecipe() where you remove the modifier override from the method itself. This is the root of your issue at least.

Member 13322529 22-Jul-17 1:34am

Seems like that fixed it. However, now im getting this error

c:\Users\Hailey\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mod Sources\SaobiesNPC\Items\NPCs\Boss\Gouzibal.cs(38,24) : error CS0115: 'SaobiesMod.NPCs.Boss.BossName.AutoloadHead(ref string, ref string)': no suitable method found to override

Heres the coding for the boss itself (The code in reference)

using System;
using System.IO;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace SaobiesMod.NPCs.Boss
{
public class BossName : ModNPC
{
public override void SetDefaults()
{
npc.name = "Gouzibal"
npc.displayName = "Gouzibal"
npc.aiStyle = 5; //5 is the flying AI
npc.lifeMax = 4250; //bosses life
npc.damage = 35; //bosses damage
npc.defense = 40; //bosses defense
npc.knockBackResist = 0f;
npc.width = 100;
npc.height = 100;
animationType = NPCID.EyeOfCthulu; //boss will behave like eye of cthulu
Main.npcFrameCount[npc.type] = 2; //boss frames/animation
npc.value = Item.buyPrice(0, 40, 75, 45);
npc.npcSlot = 1f;
npc.boss = true;
npc.lavaImmune = true;
npc.noGravity = true;
npc.noTileCollide = true;
npc.soundHit = 8;
npc.soundKilled= 14;
npc.buffImmune[24] = true;
music = MusicID.Boss3;
npc.netAlways = true;
}
public override void AutoloadHead(ref string headTexture, ref string bossHeadTexture)
{
bossHeadTexture = "SaobiesMod/NPCs/Boss/Gouzibal_Head_Boss"; //the boss head texture
}
public override void BossLoot(ref string name, ref int potionType)
{
potionType = ItenID.LesserHealingPotion; //boss drops
Item.NewItem((int)npc.position.X, (int)npc.position.Y, npc.width, npc.height, mod.ItemType("Stalagmite"));
}
public override void ScaleExpertStats(int numPlayers, float bossLifeScale)
{
npc.lifeMax = (int)(npc.lifeMax * 0.579f * bossLifeScale); //bosses life scales in expert mode
npc.damage = (int)(npc.damage * 0.6f); //bosses damage scaless in expert
}
}
}

Scratch that last one, i fixed it using the same example you gave me to fix the other code

Now were back on the suspicious chunk code. On like 15, character 52, it says ") Expected". Even after i put one in, it still says that

Member 13322529 22-Jul-17 2:02am

Fixed that too. Still on Suspicious Chunk

Line 34, character 11. "Terraria Main does not contain a definition for 'PlayerSound'"

David_Wimbley 22-Jul-17 2:49am

I don't know what Terraria Main is as I don't see it but you've got to think that if you are trying to call PlayerSound and its telling you does not contain a definition for PlayerSound that means it doesn't exist. So you either are using an outdated tutorial that is not up to date with terraria, missed a step in the tutorial that defines PlayerSounce or you need to write the code that creates PlayerSound so when you call it you don't get this error.

Member 13322529 22-Jul-17 2:58am

I removed the line outright, just to see what it actually defines ingame (were pretty sure it defines the bosses spawning position, but there might be a default it will go to if said line is missing, allowing me to skip that)

This lead to that, we worked through fixing minor errors. Now im on a new one

I think a friend of mine going to help me figure it out. I really do appreciate the help you gave me though, i used your example to fix 2 other lines of code that had the same issue (reletively)

Happy to help, good luck learning programming.
