Rebuild – Skills

RBSkills — Choose your path, one tree at a time.

A unified, gated progression hub for your skill trees. One command opens a clean tablet GUI where you commit to a discipline — hold the click, watch the ring fill, and unlock it for good. Built on Pufferfish’s Skills, wired straight into the real unlock state, capped so power is earned, day after day.

🧭 One command. One choice. One tree at a time.

Everything is locked by default. You don’t get handed power — you choose it, you hold for it, and the world hears the level-up. Progress is deliberate: a hard daily cap means no marathon-grinding your way to god mode in an afternoon.

🧩 The Trees — Six disciplines, one hub

/RBSkills opens a portrait tablet of six slots, each showing the tree’s own item icon. Lock icon, theme color, French tooltip — the whole picture before you commit.

Best for: anyone who wants their character build to be a real, visible decision.

✋ The Unlock — Hold for it, hear it land

No instant clicks. Selecting a tree is a ceremony you have to mean.

Best for: making "I’m going Offensive" feel like a moment, not a checkbox.

🔗 Linked to the real thing — never a lie

RBSkills doesn’t keep its own shadow copy of your progress. It reads and writes Pufferfish’s Skills directly.

Best for: a setup where the menu and the mechanics never disagree.

⏳ The Cap — Power is earned, not farmed

A hard per-cycle level cap, enforced by clamping XP itself — surplus is discarded, never banked.

Best for: a server that wants steady, paced progression instead of a one-day power spike.

✨ The Magic Path — Iron’s Spells, capped too

The whole Iron’s Spells chain is folded into the same cap system: Magic I → Primary School → Secondary School → Magic II — irons_skills:{magic1,school1,school2,magic2}, all at 4 levels/cycle.

Best for: mages who should level their spellpower at the same deliberate pace as everyone else.

🛰️ The Banner — It tells you when you owe yourself a point

Drop-in RBHUD integration: a side-tab behind your inventory that lights up when you’ve got something to spend.

• 🔔 Notified state — the banner glows with gold particles the moment any tracked tree (the 6 hub trees and the 4 magic trees) has an unspent point
• 🖱️ Smart click — click it and it opens straight to the tree that actually has points waiting
• 🧩 Optional — RBHUD missing? The banner just turns off. The mod runs fine without it

Best for: never logging off with three unspent points you forgot about.

🎯 What makes it feel good

• 🇫🇷 French tooltips — themed color, separator, content list, hold hint, warnings
• 🪶 Vanilla-native UI — dirt-tiled background, real button sprites, slot bevels — looks like it belongs
• 🔒 Everything locked by default — you start with nothing and choose your direction
• 💾 Persistent & death-proof — cap tracking lives in a per-player attachment that survives death and disconnects
• 🛠️ Op tooling — /RBSkills next (advance cycle), /RBSkills reset (clean slate)
• 🎁 Skill trees shipped in the JAR — the four rebuild trees load automatically, no datapack to enable

⚙️ Built for play — and built for the suite

• ✅ Server-authoritative — unlock state, XP caps and points all enforced server-side; screens are pure client
• ✅ Drop-in for the RB suite — sits alongside RBHUD, RBJobs, RBDailyQuests without stepping on toes
• ✅ One table to balance — every cap is one line: category → levels-per-cycle
• ✅ No Mixin, no AT — pure NeoForge attachments, payloads, saved data and screens, on top of the puffish_skills API

// Per-category cap, one line each — rebuild trees at 2, magic at 4
record Cap(int limit, String name) {}

CAPPED.put("rebuild_skills:offensif", new Cap(2, "Offensive Skills"));
CAPPED.put("irons_skills:magic1",     new Cap(4, "Magic I"));
// Cap by clamping XP — points stay 100% native to puffish:
//   maxLevel = dayStartLevel + limit
//   if (xpTotal > getRequiredTotal(maxLevel) - 1) clamp;  // surplus discarded

📦 Install

Drop the JAR into your mods folder.
Requires: Minecraft 1.21.1 + NeoForge 21.1+ + Java 21 + Pufferfish’s Skills.
Optional: RBHUD (for the notification banner).

🚀 Roadmap

• Per-tree HUD progress bar — "Offensive: 1/2 today · next level in 540 XP" to replace the native bar at a glance
• Configurable caps & curve — move the cap table and XP formula into a config file
• More gated trees — fold Class & Weapons into the daily cap on request
• Respec ceremony — a hold-to-confirm reset that refunds a tree
• Set-and-forget cycles — optional real-time auto-advance as an alternative to /RBSkills next

Choose your path. Hold to commit. Earn it, one cycle at a time.
