Daywalker2 Items

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-05

Overview​

This file defines prefabs used to visualize the breaking of Daywalker2 boss components (e.g., spikes, armor, objects) during combat. Each FX prefab is a temporary entity that animates, moves with physics, and optionally spawns loot upon completion. When loot is present (e.g., scrap hat), the component attaches to the loot and adjusts its armor condition via armor:SetPercent. The file returns six distinct FX prefabs used in the boss fight.

Usage example​

-- Example usage inside the Daywalker2 AI or damage logic:
local fx = SpawnPrefab("daywalker2_spike_loot_fx")
fx.Transform:SetPosition(entity.Transform:GetWorldPosition())

-- When the FX completes animation, it automatically:
--   - Spawns a "scraphat" with randomized armor (6%–20%)
--   - Removes itself from the world

Dependencies & tags​

Components used: Transform, AnimState, Network, Physics, Armor (on spawned loot) Tags: Adds FX and NOCLICK to FX entities.

Properties​

No public properties. This file returns prefab constructors, not component instances.

Main functions​

MakeItemBreakFx(name, anim, loot)​

  • Description: Factory function that returns a Prefab for a breaking FX entity. If loot is provided, the FX will spawn that item and apply randomized armor condition (6%–20%) on completion.
  • Parameters:
    • name (string) — Unique identifier for the prefab (e.g., "daywalker2_spike_break_fx").
    • anim (string) — Animation bank name to play (e.g., "spike_break").
    • loot (string or nil) — Optional prefab name to spawn as loot (e.g., "scraphat").
  • Returns: A Prefab function ready for use with SpawnPrefab.
  • Error states: None documented.

OnAnimOver(inst)​

  • Description: Callback invoked when the FX animation completes. If inst.loot is set, it spawns the loot prefab and sets its armor to a random percentage. Otherwise, erodes the FX away.
  • Parameters: inst (entity) — The FX instance.
  • Returns: Nothing.
  • Error states: If loot is absent, removes its own animover listener and stops physics.

OnHitGround(inst, speed)​

  • Description: Sets the physics motor velocity to half the initial speed after a delay, simulating rolling to a stop.
  • Parameters:
    • inst (entity) — The FX instance.
    • speed (number) — Initial horizontal speed passed from task scheduling.
  • Returns: Nothing.

Events & listeners​

  • Listens to: animover — triggers OnAnimOver when animation finishes.
  • Pushes: None.
