README.md

Welcome to the Elemental Combat repository.

A summary of the mod can be found on the curseforge page

Wiki

Note: the wiki is still WIP.

Datapacks

The directory structure:

data
 ↳ <mod_id>
    ↳ combat_properties 
       ↳ biomes
       ↳ damage_sources
       ↳ items
       ↳ mobs
       ↳ projectiles

Items

The filename must be the equal to the name of the item. For example the item minecraft:apple will use the file with the name apple.json. This file will look like this

{
	"attack_style": string,
	"attack_element": string,
	"defense_style": {
		"style1": int,
		"style1": int,
		...
	},
	"defense_element": {
		"element1": int,
		"element1": int,
		...
	}
}

You don't have to specify all values. If they are missing in the file, the mod will fill them with the correct default values.

Mobs

Basically the same as the files for items. Again the file must be name accordingly. For example minecraft:pig -> pig.json. The structure is

{
	"attack_style": string,
	"attack_element": string,
	"defense_style": {
		"style1": int,
		"style1": int,
		...
	},
	"defense_element": {
		"element1": int,
		"element1": int,
		...
	},
	"biome_dependency":boolean
}

Note that it has the biome_dependency flag. When true, the mob will gain biome specific elemental defense properties.

Biomes

{	
	"defense_element":{
		"element1": int,
		...
	}
}

a simple file containing all the values that will be added to a mob, if it has biome_dependency enabled.

Projectiles

{	
	"attack_style": "style1",
	"attack_element": "element1"
}

Damage Source

The structure is the same as for projectiles, becaus it does not need defense properties

{	
	"attack_style": "style1",
	"attack_element": "element1"
}

This is used as last resort, if the damage source is neither a mob nor a projectile.

Using the API

Project Setup

add repository to the build.gradle file:

repositories {
	maven {
		name = "CurseMaven"
		url "https://www.cursemaven.com"
}

add jar as dependency:

dependencies {
	compileOnly fg.deobf("curse.maven:elementalcombat-397825:{file-id of the api-version}")
	runtimeOnly fg.deobf("curse.maven:elementalcombat-397825:{file-id of the normal version}")
}

You can find the file-id in the curseforge url: curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/elemental-combat/files/{file-id}

Now rerun gradlew with the '--refresh-dependency' option.
