Terminable

This is an old version of this page. You can view the most recent version or browse the history.

Description

Creates an aura that, after each mechanic of its onStart metaskill, checks if a set of conditions is met: If so, the execution of the onStart skill is immediately cancelled. This effectively adds a conditional cancel mechanic after each line of the cascading meta skill.

Attributes

Attribute	Aliases	Description	Default
terminateconditions	conditions, cond, c	The conditions to check against	null
deep		Whether the terminable aura, once its conditions have been met, should also stop the execution of the metaskill it has been called from	false
onterminate	ox	The metaskill to execute once the onStart is terminated

This mechanic inherits every attribute of the aura mechanic

Deep Attribute

The deep attribute is quite peculiar: when enabled, other than the onStart metaskill, it makes the terminate aura also affect the metaskill it was originally called from. So, if we had a situation like the following

ExampleSkill:
  Skills:
  - terminable{deep=true;...}
  - skill:test1
  - delay 100
  - mechanic2

SecondarySkill:
  Skills:
  - mechanic1
  - delay 200
  - mechanic3

Then the ExampleSkill and the subsequently called SecondarySkill metaskill would be stopped if the terminable aura had its conditions met: so, for example, if the terminable aura stopped the execution after 10 ticks, neither mechanic2 or mechanic3 could be triggered

Examples

  Skills:
  - terminable{
    auraName=exampleAura;
    d=2000;
    conditions=[
      - health{h=<50} true
    ];
    onStart=[
    - state{s=charged_attack}
    - delay 20
    - skill{s=ChargedAttackDamage}
    ];
    onTerminate=[
    - state{s=charged_attack;remove=true}
    - state{s=stunned}
    ]} @self
