abstractQuality

public int abstractQuality()
Description copied from interface: Ability
Returns a constant value notifying the system of the general quality of the skill, whether it is malicious, beneficial, indifferent, or qualifiably beneficial (ok), as well as whether it is intended to target the invoker (self) or others. These constants are defined in the Ability interface and called QUALITY_*

See Also:
Ability

isAutoInvoked

public boolean isAutoInvoked()
Description copied from interface: Ability
An autoinvocating ability is an ability which affects the mob just by having learned the ability. Dodge is an example of this. This method returns whether this skill is classified as one of those kinds of abilities.

Specified by:

Overrides:
isAutoInvoked in class StdAbility
Returns:
whether this is an autoinvoking skill

canBeUninvoked

public boolean canBeUninvoked()
Description copied from interface: Ability
Whether this skill is allowed to be uninvoked. If it returns false, then it behaves as a permanent property of the object it is affecting. Not death, dispelling, or other negations will remove it.

Specified by:
canBeUninvoked in interface Ability
Overrides:
canBeUninvoked in class StdAbility
Returns:
whether this skill can be uninvoked.
See Also:
Ability.makeNonUninvokable()

classificationCode

public int classificationCode()
Description copied from interface: Ability
Returns a bitmap describing the general classification of the skill (spell, skill, chant, or property, etc) and its domain. It is made up of the ACODE_* constants the Ability interface, and optionally the DOMAIN_* constants also defined in this interface.

See Also:
Ability.putInCommandlist()

setupCheck

protected void setupCheck()

displayText

public java.lang.String displayText()
Description copied from interface: Environmental
Gets the raw string used to show what this object looks like in the room. May be used as a basis for other methods, such as the title of rooms, and what an exit looks like when open. The value for Items may be null if the item is not displayed when the room is seen.

Specified by:
displayText in interface Environmental
Overrides:
displayText in class StdAbility
Returns:
the string describing how this object looks in the room

executeMsg

public void executeMsg(Environmental myHost,
                       CMMsg msg)
Description copied from interface: MsgListener
The general message event handler for the object. Messages passed herein may not necessarily be FOR this object, or from it, but will almost always represent events happening in the same room. The messages have already been through an approval process, so this method is called only to affect the final execution of the meaning of the message. Every game event goes through these methods.

Specified by:
executeMsg in interface MsgListener
Overrides:
executeMsg in class StdAbility
Parameters:
myHost - either the initiator of the event, or the host of this object
msg - the CMMsg that needs to be executed
See Also:
CMMsg

tick

public boolean tick(Tickable ticking,
                    int tickID)
Description copied from interface: Tickable
this is the method which is called periodically by the threading engine. How often it is called depends on the parameters passed to the threadding engine when it is submitted for thread access. Typically the period is once per TIME_TICK period, but that is determined when the object is submitted to the thread engine.

Specified by:
tick in interface Tickable
Overrides:
tick in class StdAbility
Parameters:
ticking - a reference to this Tickable object
tickID - the TICKID_ constant describing this periodic call, as defined in Tickable
Returns:
true always, unless this object no longer wishes to ever tick again, in which case false
See Also:
Tickable, ServiceEngine, TickableGroup

setAffectedOne

public void setAffectedOne(Physical P)
Description copied from interface: Ability
Sets a reference to the room, item, mob, or exit that is currently being affected by this skill. Does not apply to non-affecting skills like kick, but more to auto-invoking skills and spells that affect people like sleep, and especially to properties.

Specified by:
setAffectedOne in interface Ability
Overrides:
setAffectedOne in class StdAbility
Parameters:
P - the room, mob, or item being affected
See Also:
Ability.affecting()

setMiscText

public void setMiscText(java.lang.String text)
Description copied from interface: Environmental
For objects which have false for their isGeneric method, this is used to set any internally coded strings to change the nature or behavior of the object. For objects which have true for their isGeneric method, this is used to set and parse the XML which will be used to fill out the fields in this object. Since Ability objects are never Generic, this will always be where parameters are read from an Ability instance.

Specified by:
setMiscText in interface Environmental
Overrides:
setMiscText in class StdAbility
Parameters:
text - either an open internal text string, or XML

affectCharStats

public void affectCharStats(MOB affectedMob,

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

                           PhyStats affectableStats)
Description copied from interface: StatsAffecting
This method is called by the recoverPhyStats() method on other Environmental objects. It is used to transform the Environmental basePhyStats() object into a finished phyStats() object, both of which are objects implementing the PhyStats interface. See those methods for more information.

Specified by:
affectPhyStats in interface StatsAffecting
Overrides:
affectPhyStats in class StdAbility
Parameters:
affected - the host of the PhyStats object being affected
affectableStats - the particular PhyStats object being affected

invoke in interface Ability
Overrides:
invoke in class ThiefSkill
Parameters:
mob - the player or mob invoking the skill
commands - the parameters entered for the skill (minus trigger word)
givenTarget - null, unless being auto-invoked. Represents an override target.
