Send Condition (Entity Condition Type)

Asks an apoli:receive_condition power on the same entity and uses its answer. If the entity does not have that power, or it is suppressed, or its own condition fails, this is false.

That last part is the useful bit: granting and revoking the receiver turns every sender on and off at once, which makes it a clean way to model a state that many powers care about.

Type ID: apoli:send_condition (also shappoli:send_condition)

Fields#

Field	Type	Default	Description
receiver	Identifier	required	The id of a power on the same entity. Nothing happens if the entity does not have it, if it is suppressed, if its own condition fails, or if it is not the right receiving type.

Example#

One power defines what “transformed” means:

{
  "type": "apoli:receive_condition",
  "entity_condition": {
    "type": "apoli:and",
    "conditions": [
      { "type": "apoli:power_active", "power": "vampire:bat_form" },
      { "type": "apoli:resource", "resource": "vampire:blood", "comparison": ">", "compare_to": 0 }
    ]
  }
}

Everything that cares just asks:

{
  "type": "apoli:creative_flight",
  "condition": {
    "type": "apoli:send_condition",
    "receiver": "vampire:is_transformed"
  }
}

Change the definition in one place and every power that asked follows.
