Use Shape Ability (Entity Action Type)

Triggers whatever ability the player’s current shape has, as if they had pressed the ability key. Nothing happens if the shape has no ability.

Type ID: apoli:use_shape_ability (alias shappoli:use_shape_ability)

Fields#

Field	Type	Default	Description
force	Boolean	false	Use the ability even if it is still on cooldown.
apply_cooldown	Boolean	true	Whether using it starts the cooldown. Set to false for a free use.

Example#

A free, cooldown-ignoring use as a reward for a resource:

{
  "type": "apoli:action_on_key_press",
  "key": { "key": "key.origins.secondary_active" },
  "entity_action": {
    "type": "apoli:and",
    "actions": [
      { "type": "apoli:change_resource", "resource": "mypack:focus", "change": -1 },
      { "type": "apoli:use_shape_ability", "force": true, "apply_cooldown": false }
    ]
  },
  "condition": {
    "type": "apoli:resource",
    "resource": "mypack:focus",
    "comparison": ">",
    "compare_to": 0
  }
}

Needs WoodWalkers. This type does not exist without it, so a pack using it must depend on the mod.
