Damage Would Kill (Bi-Entity Condition Type)

Simulates the actor hitting the target and checks whether the target would die. The damage source carries the actor, so attacker-side apoli:modify_damage powers, which way a shield faces and damage types that pierce armour all count. The simulation applies the same reductions the real hit would (invulnerability, shield blocking, the damage cooldown, armour, Resistance, Protection and absorption), and returns false if an apoli:prevent_death power would save the target.

Type ID: apoli:damage_would_kill

Fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
`amount`	Float or Expression	required	The raw damage to simulate, before any reduction. Expressions are evaluated on the actor.
`damage_type`	Identifier	required	The damage type to simulate, such as `minecraft:player_attack`.
`modifier`	Attribute Modifier	none	Applied to `amount` before the simulation.
`modifiers`	Array of Attribute Modifier	none	The same, for several modifiers.

The condition is false when the target isn't a living entity, and when the target is already dead.

Examples

An execute that only triggers on the finishing blow:

{
  "type": "apoli:modify_damage_dealt",
  "bientity_condition": {
    "type": "apoli:damage_would_kill",
    "damage_type": "minecraft:player_attack",
    "amount": 7
  },
  "bientity_action": {
    "type": "apoli:add_velocity",
    "y": 0.4
  }
}

Mark a target your next swing would kill:

{
  "type": "apoli:entity_glow",
  "bientity_condition": {
    "type": "apoli:damage_would_kill",
    "damage_type": "minecraft:player_attack",
    "amount": 7
  },
  "red": 1.0,
  "green": 0.1,
  "blue": 0.1
}

note

A render power such as apoli:entity_glow evaluates its conditions on the client, where enchantment protection and conditions that only the server knows read as absent, so the prediction there is close but not exact. Anything evaluated on the server (damage, actions, modify_damage) gets the full picture.

note

The simulation reads the world and never changes it, so no armour is damaged and no action fires. Damage handled by other mods' own pipelines is invisible to it.

The entity version is the same check without an attacker, for asking whether incoming damage would kill you.
