Examples

In this example, the target players would only hear growling from any number of nearby bears once every 10 minutes.

# Mob File
BearMob:
  Skills:
  - skill{s=BearGrowl} @PlayersInRadius{r=40} ~onTimer:60
# Skill File
BearGrowl:
  TargetConditions:
  - variableEquals{var=target.heardbear;value="yes"} cancel
  Skills:
  - message{m="&7You hear a growling noise..."}
  - setvariable{var=target.heardbear;value="yes";type=STRING;duration=6000}

In this example, the extra "IgnitionDamage" skill would only fire if the "do_ignite" variable were set on the skill tree.

Strike:
  Skills:
  - setvariable{var=skill.do_ignite;type=STRING;value="yes"} 0.5
  - damage{amount=20}
  - skill{s=IgnitionDamage}

IgnitionDamage:
  Conditions:
  - varEquals{var=skill.do_ignite;value="yes"}
  Skills:
  - ignite{ticks=20}
  - effects:particles

In this example is a placeholder from MMOItems being stored inside a int/float variable.

PlaceholderDamage:
  Skills:
  - setvariable{var=caster.new_skill_damage;value="%mmoitems_stat_skill_damage%";type=INTEGER} @self
  - damage{a="100 * <caster.var.new_skill_damage>"} @PIR{r=5}

Other variables can be stored inside a int/float variables.

VariableSend:
  Skills:
  - setvariable{var=caster.VariableA;value="%mmoitems_stat_skill_damage%";type=INTEGER} @self
  - setvariable{var=caster.VariableB;value="<caster.var.VariableA> * 2";type=INTEGER} @self
  - setvariable{var=caster.VariableC;value="<caster.var.VariableA> + <caster.var.VariableB>";type=INTEGER} @self
