== Events ==

I see two different approachs here:

# Active one, in the form of ''onAttack'', that requieres something like

Player.onAttack(target, weapon)

{

if(target is of type ghost)

{

return false;

}

return true;

}

# Passive one, in the form of ''onAttacked''

Ghost.onAttacked(source, weapon)

{

return false;

}

I think passive approach can lead to simpler more mantenible code. So I break the below list in those two categories.

Creatures can recieve the next list of events:

===Passive way===

====boolean onAttacked(attacker, weapon)====

''called when attacked by someone with a given weapon.''

====void onStopAttacked(target)====

''called when target stops attacking us''

====boolean onDamage(type, amount)====

''called when entity is damaged with the damage type (physical, fire, poison, magical, ... ) and the amount of damage done.''

====boolean onKilled(attacker, weapon)====

''called when attacked killed us with the given weapon''

====boolean onMove(x,y)====

''called when entity moves to x,y ( before moving in fact )''

====boolean onCollidedWith(source)====

''called when entity collide with another entity''

====boolean onEquipped(source, slot)====

''called when entity is equipped on the source entity and in the given slot''

====boolean onDropped(source, x, y)====

''called when entity is dropped by source to floor at position x,y''

====void onChat(source, text)====

''called when someone speaks near entity or write to entity''

====boolean onUsed(source)====

''called when entity is used by source''

====boolean onUsedWith(source, base)====

''called when entity is used by source on base item''

====boolean onStop()====

''called when entity stops moving, attacking, etc...''

===Active way===

==== boolean onAttack(target, weapon)====

''called when attacking a target with the given weapon.''

====void onStopAttack(target)====

''called when we stop attacking target''

====boolean onDamage(type, amount)====

''called when entity is damaged with the damage type (physical, fire, poison, magical, ... ) and the amount of damage done.''

====boolean onKill(target)====

''called when entity kills target''

====boolean onMove(x,y)====

''called when entity moves to x,y ( before moving in fact )''

====boolean onCollide(x,y)====

''called when entity collide at position x,y''

====boolean onCollideWith(target)====

''called when entity collide with another entity''

====boolean onEquip(item, slot)====

''called when entity equips item on the given slot''

====boolean onDrop(item, slot)====

''called when entity drops item from the given slot to floor''

====void onChat(source, text)====

''called when someone speaks near entity or write to entity''

====boolean onUse(item)====

''called when entity use item''

====boolean onUseWith(base, item)====

''called when entity use item on base item''

====boolean onStop()====

''called when entity stops moving, attacking, etc...''
