Modding Help Brain Extractor Drop Location

Anyone know where the file that makes it so using a brain extractor makes a brain drop is? Trying to make a similar item.

 

It's probably the same thing as the Hunting Bow/Knife.

 

Look into assets\monsters\*mobtype*\*mobvariant*\*.monstertypefile*

I.E. assets\monsters\ground\smallbiped\smallbiped.monstertype

Maybe? I'm not experienced, I just came across what it seems like you may have been looking for.

 

I think its the projectile type of "brainshock.projectile"

gun file is in assets/items/guns.
projectile is in assets/projectiles/guns/unsorted.

 

its in \Starbound\assets\treasure\brain.treasurepools

 

After looking into this further, it appears you have to modify the .monstertype files in order to add a new 'treasurepool'.

Code:

    {
      "default" : "basicMonsterTreasure",
      "bow" : "hunting",
      "brain" : "brain"
    },

This is how it links the 'damageKind' from the .gun file to the hunting.treasurepools unfortunately. I was planning to add a full suite of normal bows without Hunting on them, to expand their use, because finding Guns seems like a very rare occurrence. Ive played for 73 hours since release and ive found one gun in a crate in a Floran village. My friends found a level 28 gunship while we were in multiplayer so those are the only other guns ive seen. I really hope they add more Bows, even if they're just hunting bows.

Im on the fence as to whether i want to overwrite all the monster files.
