Module:AbilitySection/doc

Overview

Lua backend for Template:AbilitySection. Renders a two-column layout with the ability card on the left and an optional tabbed details panel on the right.

Between the card and the details panel, an interaction-hint rail of small item icons is rendered via Module:AbilityHints (showing how the ability interacts with items — dispellable, reduced, blocked, etc.). When a rail is present, the card and rail are grouped in a .ability-section-main wrapper so the rail always wraps together with the card rather than onto the details' line; abilities with no interactions keep the flat single-card structure.

Only tabs with non-empty content are shown. If two or more tabs have content, a Show All tab is automatically appended that stacks all content in sequence with section headers between them.

The Notes tab is height-constrained with a scrollbar when content overflows (see Template:AbilitySection/styles.css). Other tabs are unconstrained.

If no content params are provided, no details panel is rendered at all — only the ability card (and its hint rail, if any).
