This is an extension that takes the base critical hit data from the ruleset and allows you to (personally and privately) modify it to display the full (copyright protected) critical injury text - rather than the "See page XXX..." text.
I can't provide the full critical injury text in the base ruleset for copyright reasons. But this extension will allow you to spend approx. 10-15 minutes to enter the copyright text into the extension (XML editing required) and use it to display full critical hit info in your own games. Please don't share any resulting extension if it contains copyright data.
The extension contains two LUA tables - one for personal critical hits (called critical_injury_result_data) and one for vehicle critical hits (called critical_vehicle_result_data). A sample of the critical_injury_result_data is shown below:
critical_injury_result_data = {
["Minor Nick"] = {
d100_start = 1,
d100_end = 5,
name = "Minor Nick (1)",
description = "<p>See Page 217 Edge of the Empire(tm) or page 231 Age of Rebellion(tm).</p>",
severity = 1,
},
["Slowed Down"] = {
d100_start = 6,
d100_end = 10,
name = "Slowed Down (1)",
description = "<p>See Page 217 Edge of the Empire(tm) or page 231 Age of Rebellion(tm).</p>",
severity = 1,
},
["Sudden Jolt"] = {
d100_start = 11,
d100_end = 15,
name = "Sudden Jolt (1)",
description = "<p>See Page 217 Edge of the Empire(tm) or page 231 Age of Rebellion(tm).</p>",
severity = 1,
},
The highlighted entries are the text you want to change.
Steps to do this:
Rename the extension file from "Star Wars EotE Criticals.ext" to "Star Wars EotE Criticals.zip"
Extract the ZIP file into your <FG App Data>\extensions directory - you should end up with a directory called <FG app data>\extensions\Star Wars EotE Criticals
In this directory open the sw_custom_critical_text.lua file in a text editor. I use Notepad++ (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/)for all my FG editing.
Edit the text as highlighted above - between the <p> ... </p> tags.
Save the file.
Load FG and activate the "Star Wars EotE Criticals" extension for a "Star Wars EotE" campaign. Load your campaign.
Drag a critical to a PC/NPC to test. Note: the text won't display in the chat window (I'll add this to a later version of the ruleset). On the PC/NPC sheet, open the critical (click the link) to see the custom critical text.
For example:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39085830/Screenshots/Fantasy%20Grounds/Star%20Wars%20EotE/Star%20Wars%20-%20custom%20crit%20text.jpg
If you want to make the extension into a .ext file, ZIP up the two files (extension.xml and sw_custom_critical_text.lua), rename the .ZIp file to "Star Wars EotE Critical.ext" and put in your <FG app data>\extensions directory. Delete the extension directory created in step #2 in the list above - this is no longer needed, the .ext file will be used instead.
