Player Skills

# Player Skills A library mod that provides a baseline implementation of player-specific skills. On its own, this does very little as it is meant to be as un-opinionated as possible. Like GameStages and GamePhases, this provides a registry for tracking possible skills as well what skills a given player currently possesses. Unlike the other mods, skills are added to a player immediately and leverage ability checking via Skill Types.

That includes providing a way to (de)serialize the skill into a persistent format. More advanced use cases can leverage the skill type for determining if a skill is of a sufficient threshold. Because of this nature, skill types cannot be created via KubeJS. #### Builtin Types 1. `Basic` provides a simple boolean `true`/`false`. Great for simple skills such as "can read." 2. `Numeric` provides an integer value (0, 1, 2, etc). Great for skills or attributes which can be improved such as " strength." 3. `Tiered` are specialized version of `Numeric` in that strings can be used. One example could be "education" education (crude/primary, basic/secondary, intermediate/university, advanced/postgraduate, top/doctorate). 4. `Specialization` provide a skill which allows one or more specializations out of a list. An example is "magic type" ( red, black, white, green, blue). ### Skill A skill tracks the data needed for SKill Types to calculate if a player _can_ perform a skill-based action. Skills get serialized and persisted in player-specific NBT data. Skills are exposed via KubeJS for modpack authors to manipulate as they see fit. This mod provides no built-in skills, as we want to encourage modpacks and other mods to provide that shape. ### Restriction A restrictions handles the logic for determining if a player has an ability based on the set condition, current dimension, and current biome. It may also provide a replacement to the target resource. Like Skills, we provide no restrictions here. The other xSkills mods implements restrictions for many vanilla elements. ## More Information Documentation, examples, and more can be found in the [readme on Github](https://github.com/impleri/player-skills). ## Modpacks Want to use this in a modpack? Great! This waBecause os designed with modpack developers in mind. No need to ask.
