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)

note

This type needs WoodWalkers and doesn't exist without it, so a pack that uses it must depend on the mod.

Fields

FieldTypeDefaultDescription
forceBooleanfalseUses the ability even if it is still on cooldown.
apply_cooldownBooleantrueWhether using it starts the cooldown. Set it to false for a free use.

Example

{
  "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
  }
}

On the secondary key, this spends a point of mypack:focus for a free use of the ability that ignores the cooldown.
