anti's Better Combat Overhauls

!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/c6028edace3fe1ba2a2c9bca086965d44f555a45.png) # ABCO ABCO is a mod designed to add many features to Better Combat necessary to make it a truly engaging combat experience.

# Core Features ABCO is stock full of great features to spice up your Minecraft combat! - Critical hits are now dependent on your combo, usually granted by the last hit in the combo. - Critical damage is now weapon dependent, with higher attack speed weapons giving the biggest benefit. - Some weapons are now _Versatile_, which gives them increased damage, a unique combo, and the ability to special attack. - Some weapons are now _Paired_, which gives them special attacks while dual-wielded. - Some weapons are now _Finesse_, which replaces their special attacks with a parry mechanic. - Two-Handed, Paired, and Versatile weapons now have the ability to special attack. - Weapons only attempt to mine if the block being targeted requires that weapon as a tool (axes and wood, swords and cobwebs) - For mod and datapack developers, an expanded list of attributes for you to use when creating your unique weapon!

# Compatibility As of current, ABCO is NOT compatible with BCE (Better Combat Extension) or Spell Engine.

# Adding Support If your mod uses default Better Combat weapon attributes, then it should support ABCO out of the box!

If your weapon has a unique right click action AND uses default Better Combat attributes, ABCO may overwrite the right click action. To prevent this, set the `special_attacks` attribute of the weapon to an empty array. (i.e. `"special_attacks": []`)

If not, there's a very simple list of attributes you can add to your weapon attributes: ```JSON5 { "attributes": { // ... "critical_multiplier": 1. 5, "paired": false, "finesse": false, "versatile": false, "alternate_pose": "", "parry_pose": "", "parry_duration": 15, "parry_punishment": 20, "parry_resistance": 1. 0, "versatile_damage": 0. 0, "versatile_attacks": [ // ... ], "special_attacks": [ // ... ] }, } ``` If `versatile` is true, your weapon attributes MUST define a valid `versatile_attacks`. Versatile is a weapon attribute that gives your weapon two different attack attributes based on whether you are two-handing your weapon. Versatile damage is _additional_ damage while using versatile and will be shown on the item tooltip.

If `paired` is true, your weapon will get special attacks while it is being dual-wielded with a weapon of the same type.

If `finesse` is true, your weapon attributes MUST define a valid `parry_pose`. Finesse is a weapon attribute that replaces your special attack with a parry on interact. `parry_punishment` is the cooldown your weapon suffers if you fail to block any damage during the parry duration. `parry_resistance` (0-1) is the percentage damage resistance you are granted while blocking.

Versatile, Paired, and Two-Handed are all _incompatible_ with each other. Finesse is compatible with all of them, however Versatile Finesse is unnecessary.

Additionally, ABCO adds new Attack attributes: ```JSON5 { // ... "critical": false, "knockback_multiplier": 1. 0, "attack_speed_multiplier": 1. 0, } ``` These new attributes are mostly self-explanatory but should be powerful tools for creating unique and interesting attack combos, as well as an engaging gameplay loop. In ABCO's default datapack, most attack combos end in a critical hit.

There's no need to check for ABCO, either. If ABCO is NOT loaded, Better Combat will simply ignore these additional attributes!
