Action On Kill (Power Type)

Runs an action when this entity kills another.

Type ID: apoli:action_on_kill

In the context of this power type, the actor is the entity that has the power (the killer) and the target is the entity that died.

Fields#

Every field below works under every ID this power type answers to. The legacy ID you write only decides where a legacy entity_action lands — it never turns other fields off.

Field	Type	Default	Description
bientity_action	Bi-entity Action Type	optional	Action run with the (killer, victim) pair.
self_action	Entity Action Type	optional	Action run on the killer (the entity that has the power).
attacker_action	Entity Action Type	optional	Action run on the killer. Here the killer is the holder, so this is a synonym for self_action.
target_action	Entity Action Type	optional	Action run on the entity that died.
entity_action	Entity Action Type	optional	Legacy field. Runs on whichever side entity_action_target names.
entity_action_target	"self" / "attacker" / "target"	"self"	Which entity entity_action runs on. Set automatically by the legacy ID below.
bientity_condition	Bi-entity Condition Type	optional	Gates firing on the (killer, victim) pair.
target_condition	Entity Condition Type	optional	Gates firing on the entity that died.
attacker_condition	Entity Condition Type	optional	Gates firing on the killer.
damage_condition	Damage Condition Type	optional	Gates firing on the killing damage.
cooldown	Integer	1	Ticks the power needs to recharge between fires.
hud_render	Hud Render	{"should_render": false}	How the cooldown is shown on the HUD.

Apace compatibility#

Legacy ID	entity_action runs on
apoli:action_on_kill	the killer (holder)
apoli:self_action_on_kill	the killer (holder)

apoli:self_action_on_kill is an alias only. It no longer renames or consumes fields, so a power written under it can use bientity_action, self_action and target_action alongside its entity_action.

Examples#

{
  "type": "apoli:action_on_kill",
  "self_action": {
    "type": "apoli:heal",
    "amount": 2
  },
  "target_condition": {
    "type": "apoli:in_tag",
    "tag": "minecraft:skeletons"
  }
}

Heals the killer one heart whenever they kill a skeleton.

{
  "type": "apoli:self_action_on_kill",
  "entity_action": {
    "type": "apoli:add_xp",
    "points": 5
  },
  "target_action": {
    "type": "apoli:spawn_particles",
    "particle": "minecraft:soul"
  }
}

The legacy ID still binds entity_action to the killer, and target_action works alongside it.
