How to maneuver templates behaviors

I'm struggling with a problem, I have a template that is inherited by lots of BuildTypes (or other classes/template), this template contains some common tasks but sometimes tasks are not needed or have to be changed in their parameters. There is a way to pilot the template behavior from the inheriting class?

Below an example:

open class MyBaseClass : MyStandardBaseClass() {
    init {
        steps {}
        triggers {}
        failureConditions {
            failOnMetricChange {
                id = "someFailureOnMetricChange"
                threshold = 1 // I would like to dynamically change this
                units = BuildFailureOnMetric.MetricUnit.DEFAULT_UNIT
                comparison = BuildFailureOnMetric.MetricComparison.DIFF
                compareTo = value()
                param("metricKey", "MyKey")
                param("anchorBuild", "lastSuccessful")
            }
        }
    }
}

object MyBaseTemplate : MyBaseClass() {
    init {
        name = "MyBaseTemplate"
        id = "My Template for something"
    }
}

object MyBuildType : BuildType({
    templates(myBuildTypes.templates.MyBaseClassTemplate)
    // for this build type I need the threshold in someFailureOnMetricChange set at 1
}

object MyOtherBuildType : BuildType({
    templates(myBuildTypes.templates.MyBaseClassTemplate)
    // for this build type I need the threshold in someFailureOnMetricChange set at 100
}

Hi,

You can parametrize the threshold and give the parameter different values in different build configurations. Would that help in your use case?

perhaps I did something wrong but I tried this path but it seems it works if I extend a class but not if I'm using templates, templates apply objects masks to the caller class.

I tried also adding some myTestVar in the

object SoftwareUpdates : Project(
        {
            id("N2OSPipelineDSL_SoftwareUpdates")
            name="Software Updates"
            template(myBuild.templates.MyBaseClass)
            subProject(myBuild.someProject.MyBuildType)
        }
) {
    var myTestVar: Int = 123
}

but it works if I call the myTestVar on MyStandarBaseClass but I got an error if I try to set some different value in BuildTypes
