When do you use a basic action?

Creating a basic action is the simplest and fastest way to create an action between players. On the other hand, the behaviour of this type of action is always pre-defined. This means that you cannot add any additional functions. If you want to add greater intelligence to an action, you must use an advanced action.

What is the behaviour of a basic action and which players can be combined?
