About this project

What does RaceAPI add?

🧬 Race API — The Core of the OriginsX Race System

A powerful, extensible race and ability API for NeoForge: everything is data-driven via datapacks and fully expandable through code.

✨ Features

  • 59 Power Types: From flight and dashes to seismic waves, teleport strikes, and conditional buffs.

  • 50 Conditions: Deep conditional logic for abilities, including held items, moon phases, biomes, breath, hunger, XP, scoreboards, nearby entities, and composite logic (all_of / any_of / not).

  • Translated Condition Descriptions: (EN/RU/UK) — the interface displays clean, readable names instead of raw IDs.

  • Robust Core Mechanics: Built-in support for resource systems (Mana/Stamina), cooldowns, toggles, and weaknesses with heuristic balance weights.

📦 For Players — Datapack Driven

  • data/<namespace>/raceapi/races/*.json — Define your custom races.

  • data/<namespace>/raceapi/powers/*.json — Define reusable powers.

  • Live Reloading: Apply changes instantly in-game using /reload.

  • Validation: Use the /raceapi validate command to check your datapacks for errors and identify ability slot conflicts.

Full format documentation is available in the mod's repository.

🛠️ For Developers — Java API

  • One-Line Registration: Easily register races, powers, and conditions (AutoRace / AutoPower).

  • Custom Conditions: Create your own condition logic via Condition.register().

  • PowerPipeline: A powerful hook for modifying abilities on the fly (utilized by the Skill Tree add-on).

  • Events: Hook directly into RaceChangedEvent.

⚙️ Requirements

  • Minecraft: 26.2

  • NeoForge: 26.2.0.67+

  • LDLib2
