PocketBots:Modding API

PocketBots is built to be extended. Other mods can add their own bot types, abilities and bonuses.

Overview

The public API lives in the api package of PocketBots:

Class	Purpose
BotType	Base class for a bot type: id, name, model, fixed bonuses and an optional ability.
BotAbility	A special ability that runs while the bot is out.
BonusType	A bonus that can be fixed or rolled at random.
MaxStatBonus, PercentBonus	Ready-made base classes for stat and percentage bonuses.
PocketBotsApi	Entry point: registerBotType and registerBonusType.

Adding a bot

1. Extend BotType and describe your bot.
2. Optionally return a BotAbility for a special trick.
3. Register the type with PocketBotsApi.registerBotType when your mod starts.

Bots from other mods live in the generic Bot Capsule items and show up in /pb types.
