Skill Parameters (Premium Feature)

Skill parameters are a new feature allowing you to more easily create generic skills and pass parameters to them from other skills. If that sounds confusing, here's an example!

Currently most people have a lot similar damage skills that are just tweaked a bit for all their different mobs for slight variances in damage, but they do basically the same thing otherwise.

The old way of doing it:

ShadowDamage20:
  Skills:
  - damage{amount=20}
  - some shadowy effect

ShadowDamage50:
  Skills:
  - damage{amount=50}
  - some shadowy effect

Mob1:
  Skills:
  - skill:ShadowDamage20 ~onAttack

Mob2:
  Skills:
  - skill:ShadowDamage50 ~onAttack

With Skill Parameters, we can combine these all into a single skill! The new way:

ShadowDamage:
  Skills:
  - damage{amount=<skill.damage>}

Mob1:
  Skills:
  - skill:ShadowDamage{damage=20} ~onAttack

Mob2:
  Skills:
  - skill:ShadowDamage{damage=50} ~onAttack

The "skill parameter" system will pass any options from the skill/metaskill mechanic (except options that are specific to it) down the skill tree where you can reference them later. If a later skill passes the same parameter, it will overwrite it. These can be used anywhere placeholders are supported.

- skill{skill=SomeSkill;anything=2;somethingElse=5}

SomeSkill:
  Skills:
  - particles{amount=<skill.anything>}
  - damage{amount=<skill.somethingElse>}

Mobs

NEW: EXPERIENCE_ORB

• Added EXPERIENCE_ORB mob type (why?)

• Added origin=@targeter option to set the origin in any mechanic. Will pass through to any child mechanics.

BreakBlock

• Added doDrops, doEffect, useTool options

Disguise MAJOR CHANGE

• Renamed disguise mechanic to disguiseOld
• Disguise now just accepts a LibsDisguises config string with d=

FAWEPaste

• Added chestDropTable option
• Allows you to specify a MythicMobs droptable that will automagically populate and randomize any chests in that schematic when it's pasted

FillChest

• Fills a chest at the targeted location with the contents of a droptable

GiveItem

• Added fakeLooting=true option to play the pickup-item animation from the origin

Messages

Projectiles

• Improved collision detection with huge mobs (giants, ghasts, etc)
• Improved collision detection with ModelEngine mobs

RemoveAura

• You can now specify "ANY" to remove all auras from the target

NEW: ChainMissile (Premium Feature)

• Combines the Chain and Missile mechanics, making a missile that will bounce between so many targets

NEW: giveItemFromTarget

• Gives the caster an item while playing the pickup-item animation from the target entity or location

NEW: raytraceTo (premium-only)

Effects

Audiences

Particle Effects - Mob particles??? (premium-only)

• Added special type particle=mob on all particle effects
• You can then specify a MythicMob using mob=[type]
• This is a hacky way for you to use mobs as "particles" in effects using no-tick ArmorStands wearing models or using font characters. You can use things other than ArmorStands if you want, but we don't recommend it for performance.

BlockWave

• Added velocityX, velocityY, velocityZ, and ignoreAir options

NEW: @PlayerByName{name=""}

NEW: @Vehicle
