I think I remember this being discussed before, but I couldn't find it by searching the forums. Anyway, an ability-modifying effect (eg INT: 2) on the Combat Tracker doesn't modify the save DCs based on that ability for spell classes in the Action tab on the character sheet. Is this something that can be fixed, or is it hard to do?

I'll have to save this one for the next update after v2.9.1. It's not a couple lines of code, or I would try to slip it in.

Here is a summary of the changes required:
* Add spell casting attribute to the "castsave" roll generated (i.e. [MOD:INT])
* Add a mod handler for the "castsave" roll type
* Parse the attribute and current DC, adjust the DC based on ability effects, and replace the DC in the roll.

Will be patched in v2.9.2. You can check out by using Test mode in the Settings, and following beta information in the Laboratory forum.
