public abstract class SkriptEvent extends Structure
A SkriptEvent is like a condition. It is called when any of the registered events occurs. An instance of this class should then check whether the event applies (e.g. the rightclick event is included in the PlayerInteractEvent which also includes lefclicks, thus the SkriptEvent EvtClick checks whether it was a rightclick or not).
It is also needed if the event has parameters.
