| Editing or creating power data requires at least a rudimentary knowledge of the power definition file format. No matter the set or type of power, the format is the same:
| | To edit a power definition ("powerset_name".powers) and apply those edits to a server environment, you need the definition files themselves found in faptastic.7z (https://ourowiki.ouro-comdev.com/index.php?title=Magnet_Links), a binning setup (https://corps.ouro-comdev.com/index.php?title=Server_Setup_for_Making_Bins), and a server to test the changes on. Unfortunately, only servers running an Issue 24 setup can make such changes as the definition files for Issue 25 and 26 are unavailable for public use. |

| ==Block 1: Power Facets==
| |
| | |
| ;Category
| |
| :The category file that this power is linked with. It typically includes an archetype name followed by the primary function of the set.
| |
| | |
| ;Powerset
| |
| :The name of the powerset. It must be unique per powerset definition. DO NOT CHANGE IF MODIFYING A SET THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN CREATED.
| |
| | |
| ;Power Name
| |
| :The name of the powerset. It must be unique per powers definition. DO NOT CHANGE IF MODIFYING A POWER THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN CREATED. This name is entered into the database on compile and will break boosts (enhancements) if renamed here.|}
| |
| | |
| ;DisplayName
| |
| :This can be used to override the existing name of a power if you wish to change it. (Best practice is to generate pstrings so that non-English speaking persons may have a translated version in their native tongue).
| |
| | |
| ;BuyRequires
| |
| :This is the requirement for power eligibility. If empty, only level is required. Else, it's a postfix expressions: arguments, then operator. This is what is required to have access to select this power (an archetype, a prerequisite power, or other limiters). Valid Operators are ||(or), &&(and), and !(not).
| |
| *Formats
| |
| **If BuyRequires is a power:
| |
| ***Category.PowerSet.Power1 Category.PowerSet.Power2 ||
| |
| **:- Ex. ''Feral_Might.Feral_Might.Hunter_Form''
| |
| **If BuyRequires is access level (GM):
| |
| **:-Ex. ''accesslevel char> 0 >=''
| |
| **If BuyRequires is an archetype:
| |
| **:-''$archetype @Class_Primalist ==''
| |
| :-Ex: '''BuyRequires''' Feral_Might.Feral_Might.Hunter_Form accesslevel char> 0 >= &&
| |
| :: This means that the power being looked at requires Feral Might's Hunter Form power and (&&) the character has GM access greater than or equal to 0.
| |

| |
| :The text displayed in the pop-up dialog box to accept a teleport or resurrect.
| |
| | |
| ;TargetSecondary
| |
| :Currently for Teleport powers only. To Teleport "Others", this value is always "kLocation".
| |
| | |
| ;RangeSecondary
| |
| :Currently for Teleport powers only. To Teleport "Others", this value is the distance you can teleport them.
| |
| | |
| ;NumCharges
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. Sets the number of charges the power has initially. Each time the power is successfully made current (i.e. endurance is spent), the number of charges decreases by one. If the character gets interrupted during windup, or the power misses, or the target dies in the interim, the number of charges is still dropped by one. Once this value is zero, using the power has no effect. This is mainly used for click and inspiration powers, but can be used on toggle powers as well.
| |
| | |
| ;UsageTime
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. Used for toggle powers only, this sets the number of seconds of use the power has total. While the toggle power is active, a timer is reduced until either it runs to zero or the power is toggled off. If it runs to zero, the toggle power automatically shuts off and cannot be turned on again. If the toggle power is shut off before the timer runs out, it may be activated again. This can be done over and over until the time runs out.
| |
| | |
| ;LifeTime
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. Sets the number of real-world seconds the power will function, regardless of its usage. Attempting to use the power after this time has no effect. Toggle powers shut off when they reach the lifetime. This time passes even if the character is not online. This is useful for click, toggle, and auto powers
| |
| .
| |
| ;NumAllowed
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. Sets the max number of this power you can have at one time.
| |
| | |
| ;MaxUsageTime
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. Maximum use time the power can be extended to in seconds.
| |
| | |
| ;MaxLifetime
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. The max number of real-world seconds extended that the power will function, regardless of its usage.
| |
| | |
| ;MaxLifetimeInGame
| |
| :''For Temporary Powers''. The max number of in-game seconds extended that the power will function, regardless of its usage.
| |
| | |
| ;DoNotSave
| |
| :If True, this power will not save to the database. If the player logs out or crosses zones, the power will be removed.

| This is the default definition file for the Primalist's Feral Blow power from the Feral Might primary powerset. It is a single target melee click attack. It is a fairly standard set-up, with the notable inclusion that it redirects to other powers (a version of the power for each form: Primal, Hunter, and Prowler).
| | #6. Find the aspect that you wish to change and edit the integer or string to the desired value. |
| | |
| ==Block 2: AttribMod==
| |
| | |
| AttribMods, or Attribute Mods, are the nuts and bolts of the powers system. These mods link directly to tables in an archetype's class definition file and uses those modifiers to calculate the effectiveness of a particular attribute in the game environment.
| |
| | |
| ===Categories===
| |
| | |
| ;Name
| |
| :The second half of the name of the table the effects will use (referring to the tables in the individual class definition)
| |
| | |
| ;Table
| |
| :The full table name of the table the effects will use (referring to the tables in the individual class definition)
| |
| | |
| ;Aspect
| |
| :How this effect will modify the Attribute. May only be one of the following options:
| |
| *''Cur''
| |
| *:Modifies a percentage of the Current Attribute value. Sets the initial value or adds to an existing value.
| |
| :Consider:
| |
| ::-An archetype has no innate defense to an AttackType. PowerA applies a Cur.kMelee_Attack of 0.20. The archetype now has a 20% defense to melee attacks.
| |
| ::-If PowerB applies a Cur.kMelee_Attack of 0.05 to the same AttackType, the archetype would then have a 25% defense to melee attacks.
| |
| | |
| *''Str''
| |
| *:Modifies a percentage of the Current Attribute Strength. It represents how much to amplify the modifer that this power casts that affects a given attribute. Be sure to set '''AllowStrength''' to FALSE if you are modifying Strength.
| |
| :Consider:
| |
| ::-An archetype has a Cur.kMelee_Attack of 0.20. PowerA applies a Str.kMelee_Attack of 0.10. The archetype now has a 22% defense to melee attacks.
| |
| ::-If PowerB applies a Str.kMelee_Attack of -0.50, the archetype would then have a 10% defense to melee attacks.
| |
| | |
| *'''Abs'''
| |
| *:Adds the value to the Attribute
| |
| **''Heals''
| |
| **''Damage''
| |
| **''Endurance''
| |
| | |
| *'''Max'''
| |
| *:Modifies a percentage of the Current Attribute Max
| |
| **''HitPoints''
| |
| **''Endurance''
| |
| | |
| *'''Res'''
| |
| *:Modifies a percentage of the Current Attribute Resistance. This is a measure of how much this attribute will resist attempts to change ''any aspect'' of the attribute.
| |
| *:When applying '''Res''' to an attribute like Damage type, the attribute will both resist the damage type and resist resistible resistance debuffs.
| |
| :Consider
| |
| ::-An archetype has a Cur.kMelee_Attack of 0.20. PowerA applies a Res.kDefense of 0.10. The archetype now has a 20% defense to melee attacks AND a 10% resistance to buff and debuff effects that modify Defense.
| |
| | |
| ;Attrib
| |
| :The particular effect being applied to a target of the power.
| |
| See Google Sheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-M0krQPyjBcM1Aa7x-CmLfaOWAL7VEtvbSCWljiuctk/edit?usp=drivesdk
| |
| | |
| ;Target
| |
| :The target of an attribute that is being applied. Can be used to have some effects of a power modify a foe, while another effect modify the caster.
| |
| *kSelf
| |
| *kSelfsOwnerandAllPets
| |
| *kTarget
| |
| *kTargetsOwnerandAllPets
| |
| *kFocus
| |
| *:Test effect. Unknown application.
| |
| | |
| ;Scale
| |
| :How much the table (specified by Power Type and Effect) will be multiplied by. May be an absolute value, scale multiplier, or percentage. Further modified by class tables found in the class definition files.

| ;Type
| |
| :Establishes the type of value the scale corresponds to. Most effects will be Magnitude. Use Duration for Boolean effects like Stun, Immobilize, or Sleep if you want the duration to be resistible and scalable by level of caster. For Duration Toggle powers that effect targets other than caster, the duration should be set to 3 times the ActivatePeriod (to prevent hiccupping when using that power against targets much higher level than the caster - also, in this case, StackType should be kReplace).

| ;Delay
| |
| :Time in seconds before the effect goes off.
| |
| | |
| ;Duration
| |
| :For Magnitude Type Attrib Mods, How long the effect will last. For the Power, the Duration starts every ActivatePeriod; For the AttribMod, the Duration starts every Period (after any Delay). If set to 0, the effect will happen once for click powers. For toggle or auto powers, if both activate period and duration are set to 0, the effect will happen every tick (this is bad). Must be at least 0.125. A Dur of <.125 (e.g. 0), will be auto set to 0.125. For Duration Type Attrib Mode, Ignore This!
| |
| | |
| ;Magnitude
| |
| :For Duration Type Attrib Mods. The amount a targets base value will increase by. For example, for Boolean effects, this number will increase the targets Base Value by this much. For Magnitude Type Attrib Mods, Ignore This!

| |
| | |
| ;NearGround
| |
| :Set to True if you want the target to be on the ground to be effected. If all Attrib mods are set to NearGround=True, then the target of the power must also be on the ground in order for the power to activate.
| |
| | |
| ;CancelOnMiss
| |
| :Mostly used in conjunction with Period and Duration and Chance: The effect will continue to activated every period for the life of the duration. If the effect fails Chance one period, the effect is cancelled if CancelonMiss is True.
| |
| | |
| ;RadiusInner/RadiusOuter
| |
| :If the entity is in the power's overall effect area, and is between RadiusInner and RadiusOuter, then the AttribMod will be attached to the entity. Otherwise, it will not.
| |
| If you leave out the inner or outer radius, then the attribmod is not limited by the one left out. For example, if you have a RadiusInner but no RadiusOuter, then anyone inside RadiusInner won't get hit. Every outside the RadiusInner to infinity (or the edge of the Power's radius, actually) will get hit.
| |
| | |
| ;Attrib Requires
