changeling
Vars | |
| active | used by a few powers that toggle |
|---|---|
| chemical_cost | How many changeling chems it costs to use |
| dna_cost | Cost of the ability in dna points, negative values are not valid |
| helptext | Details displayed in fine print within the changling emporium |
| ignores_fakedeath | usable when the changeling is in death coma |
| req_absorbs | Similar to req_dna, but only gained from absorbing, not DNA sting |
| req_dna | Amount of dna needed to use this ability. Note, changelings always have atleast 1 |
| req_human | If you need to be humanoid to use this ability (disincludes monkeys) |
| req_stat | Maximum stat before the ability is blocked.
For example, UNCONSCIOUS prevents it from being used when in hard crit or dead,
while DEAD allows the ability to be used on any stat values. |
Procs | |
| try_to_sting | Contrary to the name, this proc isn't just used by changeling stings. It handles the activation of the action and the deducation of its cost. The order of the proc chain is: can_sting(). Should this fail, the process gets aborted early. sting_action(). This proc usually handles the actual effect of the action. Should sting_action succeed the following will be done: sting_feedback(). Produces feedback on the performed action. Don't ask me why this isn't handled in sting_action() The deduction of the cost of this power. Returns TRUE on a successful activation. |
