Description copied from interface: StatsAffecting

This method is called by the recoverCharStats() method on other MOB objects. It is used to transform the MOB baseCharStats() object into a finished charStats() object, both of which are objects implementing the CharStats interface. See those methods for more information.

Specified by:

affectCharStats in interface StatsAffecting

Overrides:

affectCharStats in class StdAbility

Parameters:

affectedMob - the host of the CharStats object being affected

affectableStats - the particular CharStats object being affected

public void affectCharState(MOB affectedMob,
                            CharState affectableMaxState)

Description copied from interface: StatsAffecting

This method is called by the recoverCharState() method on other MOB objects. It is used to transform the MOB baseCharState() object into a finished charState() object, both of which are objects implementing the CharState interface. See those methods for more information.

Specified by:

okMessage

public boolean okMessage(Environmental myHost,
                         CMMsg msg)

Description copied from interface: MsgListener

The general message event previewer for the object. Messages passed herein are in a pending state, and may be safely modified or rejected without fear that they might be in the middle of being executed. Messages passed herein may not necessarily be FOR or FROM this object, but will almost always represent events which want to happen in the same rom. This method should always always return true UNLESS this message needs to be canceled, in which case it is necessary to tell the mob initiating the event (CMMsg.source()) why it is being cancelled. Every game event goes through these methods.

Specified by:

okMessage in interface MsgListener

Overrides:

okMessage in class StdAbility

Parameters:

myHost - either the initiator of the event, or the host of this object
