Hey playing with the demo, getting some friends involved, but have a few quick Qs:

1) When creating a character, how do I keep my PCs from altering their stats? I've logged myself in to localhost and on char creation I can alter my ability scores. Is it on the honor system? Not worried about cheating so much as a mis-click.

2) Weapon/armor addition. Can someone explain the addition of some mundane items to the weapon/armor slots? How do I keep my PCs from adding "Lindsey Lohan's Bourbon Bottle +20" to their inventory? Honor system again?

3) Map unveiling. How do I limit what the PCs can see on a particular map? Like seeing around corners and such?

TIA!

1 & 2 - how do you manage the same with a paper character sheet around the gaming table? At least with FGII, the GM can easily check the sheet and can even modify the sheet themselves.
3 - There's a mask function for the map. Right click on the map to bring up the radial menu. The option is on the low right hand side (Layers, Enable Mask)

There's a User Guide in the Library (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/userguide/). Weapons list entries comes under the topic: Using the character sheet (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/userguide/charactersheet.xcp)

For one and two I would suggest finding a group of players with a maturity level higher than that of a 12 year old...... And give that bottle back to the Lohan, VERY interesting things happen when that girl is drunk :)
