Karma Actions & Karma Effects

Karma Actions

A Karma Action is a player driven action which will lead to changes to their Karma Score (and subsequently, their Karma Alignment). In Karma Overload 1.0.0, there is 17 Karma Actions that are available.

These are case sensitive, if you don't type them like they are written in the table you may encounter issues!

When adding a value to a Karma action, it should always follow this format: <value name> = <value>. When a Karma Action requires multiple values (which most of them do), each value should be split with a ;. An example of a complete Karma Action to be written in alignment file is as follows: PASSIVE: chance = 1.0; amount = 1.0; interval = 180;

Values which have an asterisk (*) next to their name require further reading, which can be found at the bottom of this page.

These are also case sensitive, type them exactly like they are written in the table below to avoid issues!

Value name	Accepted value
chance	The decimal probability for the action to be triggered
amount	The amount of Karma to be gained/lost from performing this action
permission	The permission required for the action to be triggered
sound *	The sound to play when the action is triggered
List of Materials, each with [values] *	A list of materials with a set of values each

Some Karma Actions use values that are unique and used just for that action specifically. Here's a table displaying all of them (Case sensitive)

Unique Value Name	Accepted value	Action using it
interval	How often the action should triggered (In seconds)	PASSIVE
babiesEnabled	Whether feeding babies will trigger the FEEDING action - must be true/false	FEEDING
List of words, each with [values] *	A list of words which will trigger the action, each with a set of values	MESSAGING
List of Advancement IDs*	The advancement's id	ADVANCEMENT

Special Values

These are values which require a more thorough explanation.

• Sound: Sounds follow the following format sound = sound.name([volume],[pitch]). The sound.name is the name of the sound which can be played with the /playsound command. Example: sound = entity.lightning.strike(1.0, 2.0)
• List of Materials: Requires one or multiple entries of materials. These follow this format: - [Material]{[values]}. A list of all usable materials can be found here. Example: - GOLDEN_CARROT{chance = 0.5; amount = 1.0; permission = karma.food.golden_carrot}
• List of Words: Requires one or multiple entries of word(s). These follow this format: - [word(s)]{[values]}. The word(s) is not case sensitive, and supports spaces. Example: - silly{chance = 1.0; amount = -1.0; sound = block.note_block.bass(1.0, 1.5)}
• List of Advancement IDs: Requires one or multiple entries of advancement id(s). These can be found here, and follow this format: - minecraft:adventure/adventuring_time{chance = 1.0; amount = 10.0;}
