Radical Cobblemon Trainers API
by hd42
Radical Cobblemon Trainers API supplies trainer management and battle features for Cobblemon, and it can be used as a library by other mods.
What it does
The library keeps a registry that links trainers to entities, and it defines several battle formats, including single, double and multi battles. Custom battle rules can cap values such as the number of item uses in one battle. Trainers can carry and use items during a fight, and a set of trainer and Pokémon models gives other code a simple structure to read.
The API was first written as the base for the Radical Cobblemon Trainers mod, and it stands in for a discontinued dependency that older trainer setups relied on. It is built as an independent library that offers a subset of those features to any mod. Architectury API and Cobblemon are required dependencies. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. It is released under a custom license and is not open source; the source code and issue tracker are public. Fabric and NeoForge files are published for 1.21.1, currently 0.16.2-beta.
