SkillTrees are an implicit feature of Mythic and, while they cannot directly invoked like Metaskills or otherfeatures, play just as an important of a role.

SkillTrees are created each time a mechanic is fired by a trigger, and it is the place where skill scoped variables are stored and inside which metaskills exist

    }

Skill Scoped Variables

Since they exist in the skilltree itself, skill-scoped variables can be accessed by any metaskill in the skilltree from the moment they are created, regardless of which metaskill created them

MetaSkills

Each Metaskill that is being called in the SkillTree has their own set of data regarding who the caster, target and trigger is:

• The Target is whoever has been targeted or inherited when calling the Metaskill, and inside the metaskill itself it is the Inherited Target(s)

  Skills:
  - skill{s=ExampleSkill} @PIR{r=10} ~onInteract

The ExampleSkill metaskill that is being executed will have every player in a 10 blocks radius as the inherited target.

• The Trigger is first set as the entity that triggered the SkillTree initially. Each time a new metaskill is called, it inherits the trigger of the calling metaskill, unless it has been overridden by the [sudoskill]'s mechanic casterastrigger attribute, in which case the trigger from that metaskill forth will become the caster of the sudoskill mechanic
