On Cinematic Start

Description

Executes the skill when a cinematicCamera path begins playing on a player.

The caster of this trigger is the player the cinematic is playing for. There is no separate associated @trigger.

This trigger fires for every cinematic start, regardless of whether the path was started from a named file or from inline keyframes. To run a skill only for one specific cinematic, prefer the mechanic's onStart attribute instead.

Because the caster is the player, this trigger only runs skills that belong to that player, such as MythicCrucible item skills or MythicRPG skills. It never runs a mob's Skills; for those, use the mechanic's onStart attribute.

Examples

On a MythicCrucible item, the skill runs for the player holding or wearing it.
