AuraSkills

Note: If you are using the 15 skill legacy preset and previously updated to 2.0.8, your sources files for alchemy, agility, and enchanting may have been forcefully updated to include duplicate sources due to a bug in source updating. While this update fixes the bug going forward, you may have to manually remove sources that are duplicated with healing, endurance, and forging, respectively.

New Features

• Add menu conditions system
  • Conditions on items are used to add requirements for viewing or clicking an item
  • View conditions will hide the item if not all conditions are met
  • View conditions are added with a view_conditions key under an item
  • Click conditions will prevent click actions or built-in click behavior from running if not all conditions are met
  • Click conditions are added using the on_click_conditions key, or for a specific button trigger like on_right_click_conditions
  • The syntax for any condition key is a map list of conditions that all must be met. This is similar to the click actions syntax.
  • Permission condition type:
    • Permission conditions check if the player has a permission
    • Uses type: permission (optional due to auto type detection)
    • Must specify a permission key for the permission node to check
    • An optional boolean value can be specified (defaults to true)
  • Placeholder condition type:
    • Placeholder conditions compare two values that can contain PlaceholderAPI placeholders
    • Uses type: placeholder (optional due to auto type detection)
    • Must specify a placeholder string key as the left side value to be compared
    • Must specify a value string key as the right side value to be compared
    • An optional compare string can be specified for the type of comparison operation to perform (defaults to equals)
      • equals checks for numerical or string equality
      • greater_than checks if placeholder is strictly greater than value
      • greater_than_or_equals checks if placeholder is greater than or equal to value
      • less_than checks if placeholder is strictly less than value
      • less_than_or_equals checks if placeholder is less than or equal to value
    • Any compare other than equals requires both placeholder and value to be evaluated to doubles
• Add menu on_open and on_close actions for running actions when a menu is opened or closed
  • These are map lists of actions defined directly in the top-level of the menu file
  • on_close will run even if the player switches to a different menu immediately
• Add sound menu action
  • Plays a sound for a player
  • Uses type: sound (optional due to auto type detection)
  • Must specify a sound string key as the sound type to player. This uses the vanilla names matching the /playsound command.
  • An optional category string can be specified (defaults to master)
  • An optional volume number can be specified (defaults to 1)
  • An optional pitch number can be specified (defaults to 1)
• Add syntax to duplicate default menu items with placeholders
  • Creating a new item with a name in the format item_name(1) will replace all the display_name and lore placeholders exactly like the default item_name.
  • Any number can be used within the parenthesis
  • This is useful for duplicating default items across multiple slots with different materials and custom_model_data for resource packs
• Add syntax for duplicating the exact same menu item easily across multiple slots
  • Specify a list of slot values with the pos key instead of a single value
