Origin (Entity Condition Type)

Passes when the player currently has a given origin — on one specific layer, or on any layer at all.

Type ID: origins:origin — an entity condition.

Needs the Origins mod. Registered by Origins, not core Apoli. It only passes for players; any other entity fails.

Fields#

Field	Type	Default	Purpose
origin	Identifier	required	The origin to look for.
layer	Identifier	optional	Only check this layer. Omit to pass if the origin is held on any layer.

Examples#

Is this player a Phantom on the main layer?

{
  "type": "origins:origin",
  "origin": "origins:phantom",
  "layer": "origins:origin"
}

Anywhere at all — including a copy layer they picked it up on:

{
  "type": "origins:origin",
  "origin": "origins:merling"
}

Gating one power on several origins#

This is how a power behaves differently depending on which origin the player picked. Grant the power broadly, then branch inside it:

{
  "type": "apoli:action_over_time",
  "interval": 20,
  "entity_action": {
    "type": "apoli:if_else",
    "condition": { "type": "origins:origin", "origin": "origins:merling" },
    "if_action": { "type": "apoli:gain_air", "value": 4 },
    "else_action": { "type": "apoli:feed", "food": 1, "saturation": 0.5 }
  }
}

Notes#

• This reads the player’s current choice. To test an origin saved earlier, use origins:stored_origin.
• It works on both sides: the server reads the player’s origin state, the client reads its synced copy, so it’s safe in render- and HUD-side conditions.
