Making my first Mod. Anyone help?

[linolino]

I posted a few days ago that i wanted to increase the price of the elixir of life to 100,000 points, but that's not possible since the prices are stored as a 16 bit number in the game so the maximum value to the price 32767
(read thread here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,5262.0.html)

Since i cannot raise the price to the amount i wanted..

I'm trying to create a clone of the love potionn and recolor the liquid inside green, then make it have the same effect as the elixir of life when a sim drink it, except that it would give you the effect of a single dose of the elixir (3 days) and then disappear.

Ok so I already recolored it green, and im trying to change the menu strings.

However i have no idea how to make it work like the elixir.
Im thinking about deleting the behavior functions (BHAV) related to the love potion effects and copying the BHAV from the elixir...

Help anyone? i don't even know where to look for infrmation on how to do this...

I think you need items in the TTAB that match the elixir, as well as the BHAVs.
