Abilities are also used for less obvious purposes such as summoning match information UI or managing gameplay phases. Lyra implements abilities for common actions such as using weapons, movement-related actions like jumping and dashing, and passive listening actions such as triggering respawn after death. Instead of forcing concepts such as Health, Ammo, Melee Attack, or Poison Debuff, GAS provides tools to define, replicate, and work with Attributes, Abilities, and Effects, which can then be specialized to fulfill the needs of the given gameplay mechanic. The GAS addresses these issues by providing a foundation that fulfills common gameplay functionality as much as possible, while staying mechanic-neutral. For example, you don't want to spend a significant amount of time ensuring your Health values are replicating correctly, or copying the same lines of code over when you decide to have an Energy value that behaves identically. Writing boilerplate code is often error-prone and time consuming, especially for multiplayer games. GAS attempts to abstract mechanics into common game design patterns, and provides a framework that solves common gameplay implementation problems while letting context vary from project to project. When writing code for complex gameplay mechanics that can include multiplayer, you may write a lot of common boilerplate functionality that applies over many different game types. The Gameplay Ability System is a plugin that provides a framework for quickly implementing and iterating on gameplay mechanics. Abilities can be innate to hero data like jump, granted from an action like a Game feature, gained through Experience, or granted from Equipment. Lyra uses the Gameplay Ability System ( GAS) to orchestrate most of its gameplay.
