player:set_wield_item() not working in craftitem:on_use()

by LC Creations » Post

I have a craftitem and it uses the on_use function. However, if i use player:set_wield_item() inside the function, nothing is changed. What the heck? It is 100% required for me to be able to do this. Not exceptions no alternatives accepted. I MUST do this.

Please write what you are tying to do with this item and it's on_use and we can maybe find a solution.

Literally all I did was used "set_wield_item" funtion in "on_use". No other code was there. As for the item I'm setting it to, its just modifying the meta of the item stack.

The return value of "on_use" overwrites the selected item after you called the function.
Modify the itemstack and return that to set the wielded item.
