personality

Personality Singleton

Contains information about a personaility.

A personality is designed to be a small modifier to the way a mob reacts to moodlets or world events.

For example, a mob with the Callous personality would not receive a positive moodlet for saving someone's life.

They're not meant to be full blown quirks that hold state and such. If you NEED state, consider making a quirk, or moving your behavior into a component the personality applies.

Vars
desc	Required: Description of the personality. Phrased to be "In character" - i.e. "I like to help people!" Rather than OOC 0 i.e. "When helping people, I get a positive moodlet."
groups	What groups does this personality belong to? Personalities in the same group are mutually exclusive.
name	Required: Name of the personality
neg_gameplay_desc	Optional: Short blurb on what negative effects this personality has on gameplay, for ui
neut_gameplay_desc	Optional: Short blurb on what neutral effects this personality has on gameplay, for ui
personality_trait	Easy way to apply a trait as a part of a personality.
pos_gameplay_desc	Optional: Short blurb on what positive effects this personality has on gameplay, for ui
processes	Does this personality need to process every tick? If true, you'll need to override on_tick() with logic
savefile_key	Required: The key to use when saving this personality to a savefile. Don't change it once it's set unless you want to write migration code
Procs
apply_to_mob	Called when applying this personality to a mob.
on_tick	Called every SSpersonality tick if `processes` is TRUE. Don't call parent if you override this, that's for error checking
remove_from_mob	Called when removing this personality from a mob.
