public class LAUGHING extends BABBLING
Uncontrollable laughing effect that forces a player to repeatedly laugh.

LAUGHING is a specialized variant of the BABBLING effect that forces the affected player to laugh uncontrollably instead of speaking babbling nonsense. Like BABBLING, this effect applies periodic damage and forces the player to speak messages at random intervals. However, LAUGHING uses a custom dictionary of laugh exclamations (16 different laugh variations) instead of generic babbling words, and is configured with a 50% probability threshold for triggering laughs. The effect displays continuous uncontrollable laughter, creating a humorous but harmful status condition.

Mechanism (inherited from BABBLING):

  • Periodic damage applied every 3 seconds with clamped magnitude (0.5-10 health)
  • Forced speech output at random intervals (1-5 custom laugh messages per damage cycle)
  • 50% probability threshold for triggering laugh messages each cycle
  • Custom laugh dictionary with 16 humorous laugh variations
  • Detectable by information spells (Informous)
  • Detection text: "cannot stop laughing"
