Overview

The Abilities module provides functions for retrieving data about hero abilities and their upgrades.

• The function get_ability_name references Data:AbilityCards.json to link a hero and ability slot to an ability's display name.
• The functions get_ability_prop and get_ability_upgrade_prop reference Data:AbilityData.json to get specific stats from an ability's base data or its upgrades.
