Jnbernstein: /* Tidings */

These are things that happen! Generally (always?) you'll be seeing these in the context of [[Effects]].
For some less technical descriptions, take a look at the [[Story Inputs and Outputs#Types of Outcomes we support|Types of Outcomes we support]].

== Mission ==
[[File:MissionDefault.png]]

Starts a fight to the death. A fair amount of stuff can be specified here.
* '''sitePlanOverride:''' Overrides the site plan (environment) that the mission takes place in (cave, forest shrine, library, etc.)
* '''format:''' Overrides the format of the mission (assault, defense, ambushed, or arena)

=== Combatants ===
The people and monsters fighting in this battle.

You can now set the '''role''' of a combatant and their '''side'''. You don't ''need'' to use party or foes, so if you want an event with only one player fighting, go for it. You can also put NPCs on your side, which you'll be able to control. ''(Even monsters! Though, maybe use with caution? It's not really supported right now?)''

You can specify a '''customThreat''', which can include a '''flavor''' and '''strength''' (if not set, they use the defaults), or you can specify specific '''monsterTracks'''.

You can add '''custom items''' to humans, either via ID or by Role. By ID is nice and easy, standard items. By Role is probably for when you want an item to have certain aspects, and you create it beforehand in the implications. In both cases, items will be equipped to the combatant for the duration of the mission. If you want a player to keep an item afterward, you can add an AddGear Outcome to manage that.

=== Combat Modifiers ===
Add advantages or disadvantages to the player faction
* '''type:''' Should the player have an advantage, or a disadvantage?
* '''number:''' How many advantages/disadvantages should the player have? (This many will be picked randomly based on the type)
* '''specificModifiers:''' If set, these specific modifiers will override the type and number fields.

====Modifiers include the following:====
''Advantages:''
* '''Fortitude:''' All party members gain 1 temporary hitpoint
* '''Courage:''' All party members gain +1 damage/potency (3 turns)
* '''Cunning:''' Flanking attacks this combat deal +1 damage
* '''Intimidation:''' All foes suffer 2 damage to start the mission
* '''Insight:''' Double the stunt chance for all party members
* '''Endurance:''' All party members gain 1 armor and 1 warding (2 turns)
''Disadvantages:''
* '''Nausea:''' All party members lose 1 hitpoint.
* '''Disorder:''' Walling provides no armor this combat.
* '''Misalignment:''' All augment bonuses are nullified this combat.
* '''Dismay:''' All foes gain 1 hitpoint to start the mission.
* '''Wound:''' One party member loses half hit points to start combat.
* '''Disable:''' One party member gains stun(2) to begin combat

=== Some Other Notes on Missions ===
* '''If you want to fight someone from your party''' (as a doppelganger or possessed or whatever), don't just put the actual player on the enemy side, because then they'll ''actually'' die. Instead, [[Effects#Cloning a Role|make a clone of them in Implications]]!

== ChangeControl ==
[[File:ChangeControl.png]]

Used to assign control of the given target to a given controller.

Using something like '''becomeAllyOf: party''' and '''makeHero: true''' will recruit the given role to your party!

== Tidings ==
Tidings can be used to create follow-up anecdotes to events. To create a Tiding:

1) In the original event, under the Effects Tab, under the choice/outcome that you want to connect a Tiding to, click the "ADD OUTCOME..." button. This will open the "New Outcome" window.

[[File:Add_Outcome.jpg]]

2) In the New Outcome window, start typing "AllowFollowup" in the text bar on the upper left. This will filter out all the other options for Outcomes. Once "AllowFollowUp" is the only thing left in the drop-down list, click on it. This will open the description window. Fill in the Stub field. Note the ID assigned by the system. You'll need to know this later. Then click "CREATE".

[[File:AllowFollowUp.jpg]]

3) Now you're done with the original file. Go back to Effects and Start a New Event.

4) For event type, go to the drop-down menu and select "Tiding-Followup on a Specific Outcome" (it's down near the bottom of the list).

[[File:CreateTiding.jpg]]

5) Now a new drop-down menu will appear under the Event Type menu. This is a list of events with outcomes that need Followups. Find the outcome ID that matches the one you saw in Step 2. This will connect the Tiding to the Event.

[[File:SelectTidingID.jpg]]

6) Now name the Tiding and create the event as usual.

7) Use the comics editor to create the Tiding. NOTE THAT TIDINGS SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN ONE LINE OF COMIC PANELS.

Tag Reference

2019-01-18T23:34:10Z

Jnbernstein: Corrected all biome tags to target "overlandTile" instead of "tile"

Wildermyth accomplished Dynamic Writing by using Tags to control what text is inserted into a passage.

Tags use <angle brackets> and allow a fairly wide variety of functionality.

Note: mostly case insensitive
Note: comma and slash as separators, most of the time!

=Top-Level Tags=
These are simple tags that work in any context and insert names of interesting things.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! tag !! example !! might render as !! explanation
|-
| Town || <town> || Ninesprings || Finds either the nearest town, or the origin town for the heroes.
|-
| Company || <company> || The Fellowship of the Eagle || Gives the name of the player's company, which they get a chance to choose at the end of the introduction.
|-
| Site || <site> || Moosetunnel || Finds the relevant site in a situation, if there is one, or falls back to the nearest interesting site.
|-
| Tower|| <tower> || Cranespire || Finds the name of the Heroes' main base, their home tower, which they gain control of during the introduction.
|}

=Role Tags=
Most tags (and the most useful tags) rely on [[Story Role]]s. A role is used to refer to a particular target, usually a hero, and then select text depending on properties of the target.

Role tags use this form:
* '''<roleName>''' gives the short name of the target
* '''<roleName.tag...>''' most tags work like this, has a variety of effects depending.
* '''<roleName.#.tag...>''' where # is a number like 1,2,3,4... Which is useful if more than one entity is assigned to a role.

Numbered roles are not generally recommended because they're a bit awkward to think about, but sometimes they're convenient if, for example, you know there are 2 heroes in the party and you just need to list them or something.

==Names and Specials==
Use these tags to insert names.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! tag !! example !! might render as !! explanation
|-
| || <leader> || Barlox || Use a plain role tag to show the short name, which, for heroes, is always their first name.
|- style="color:#AAAAAA;"
| shortName || <leader.shortName> || Barlox || Short name. Same as unadorned role.
|- style="color:#AAAAAA;"
| firstName|| <leader.firstName>|| Barlox || First name. Same as short name.
|- style="color:#AAAAAA;"
| name || <leader.name>|| Barlox || Same as short name and first name.
|-
| lastName || <leader.lastName> || Spidermusk || If the entity has a two-part name, return the last part.
|-
| fullName || <leader.fullName> || Barlox Spidermusk || The whole name. Very formal.
|-
| nameCAPS|| <leader.nameCAPS> || BARLOX || BARLOX ARE YOU SERIOUS.
|-
| namelower|| <leader.namelower> || barlox || stream of consciousness, mumbling..
|-

|-
| lastnamelower|| <leader.lastnamelower> || spidermusk || no one will use this tag. go ahead prove me wrong.
|-
| singular || <foes.singular> || Gorgon || Useful for monsters, if you want the singular version of the monster group name.
|-
| plural || <foes.plural> || Gorgons || Gives the plural version of the name of a group of monsters.
|-
