Template:AbilityInteraction/doc

Usage

{{AbilityInteraction}} displays a boxed note describing how an ability interacts with an item or mechanic. It is meant for the interactions parameter of {{AbilitySection}}.

The interaction is chosen by name from a registry in Module:AbilityInteraction, which supplies the header text, color, icon, and link. Call sites supply only the body text and, where relevant, a state.

Nothing else is customizable, and that is deliberate: it keeps a given mechanic looking identical everywhere it appears. A box that needs custom presentation should use {{IconBox}} directly rather than adding parameters here.

Setting state=disabled always produces a neutral (blue) header, whatever type the registry entry declares. A disabled box means the interaction does not apply, so it carries no positive or negative meaning.

Parameters

A boxed note describing how an ability interacts with an item or mechanic. Presentation comes from a registry in Module:AbilityInteraction.

Template parameters

This template prefers block formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
interaction	interaction	Name of the interaction in the registry. Case-insensitive, and aliases are accepted. The Interactions section of this page lists every available name. Suggested values debuff resist dispel indomitable slowing hex unstoppable Example debuff resist	String	required
text	text	Wikitext shown in the box body. May contain wikilinks, templates such as AbilityIcon, and lists.	Content	required
state	state	Omit when the interaction applies normally. Use partial when it applies only in part, or disabled when it does not apply at all. Suggested values partial disabled	String	optional

An unrecognized interaction renders a visible error in place of the box. An unrecognized state does not — it renders as though no state were given.

Adding an interaction

Add an entry to the REGISTRY table at the top of Module:AbilityInteraction. Each entry sets aliases, title, type, iconfile, and link. The table above and the parameter suggestions update on their own.

The registry key and its aliases are matched in lower case. Aliases are assumed not to collide with each other.
