Reset Hit Dice?

[egrog1717]

Was playing around with character creation and rolled my hit dice... It disappeared out of the HD box and now I can't figure out how to make it go back...

Level 1 character - Should have 1 HD after a rest... How do I tell FG to rest my character?

Thanks!

The GM can trigger a rest. See #13 in the Main tab screenshot here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/5E_Character_Sheet#Main_Tab

Awesome, thanks! :D

Also, I believe the player can right click on their character sheet to rest as well.

The GM can invoke a rest from each sheet individually or from the CT menu for the group.

I thought this as well but I can't get it to work; possibly because I'm joining my own game? Or possibly it was removed.

Joining your own game doesn't make a difference in terms of player functionality - if you can't see it while connecting using localhost then you won't see it any way/how. I think it's been removed (was it ever there?).

I could have sworn that it was when I was writing up the Wiki articles but I am, as you know, very old so it could be that memory is playing tricks on me. Also I hesitate to contradict Moon Wizard so I was sort of keeping my options open and not just coming out and saying that it was not so :)

[Moon Wizard]

Zacchaeus is correct. It's one of the drawbacks to working on the same stuff for so long. ;)

It was probably removed as too easy for players to "mess up" and rest before the GM agrees that the rest was successful before recovering spells/abilities/etc.

Another way to reset the hit dice used up from the player or GM side is to click on the class details link, and manually set the HD Used field for each class to zero.

Dice have been removed from my players character sheets, and using right clicking players character sheets and clicking Long Rest isn't restoring their Hit Dice.30076

Welcome to the forums.

That's not Hit Dice. HD are on the first page of the character, but what you want are damage dice. Click the magnifying glass to the right of the "fire" line. That will open an editor that will allow you to specify (drag in) the damage dice you want the spell to deal.

I must have worded it wrong "Dice have been removed from my players character sheets, also another problem is when I right click player's character sheets and click Long Rest it isn't restoring their Hit Dice"

I know how to add the now missing damage Dice back (for spells, weapons) and how to remove them that wasn't the issue, its the Fact that it happen and now i have to fix it. (even tho this shouldn't be the case)

What I don't know is how to Fix it or to prevent this from randomly happening again and how to fix the Bug that is the Hit Dice an the Dice being removed from players character sheets.

I'm not sure I correctly understand your problem, but lets see what I can help figure out. If this doesn't help, can you post screen shots and you step through the issue?

First, my experience is that your players are probably doing something wrong, simple because they don't know the proper method.

So, on the first tab of the character sheet at the bottom is the Hit Dice;
30078

When you click on the magnifying glass to the left of the HD the Health Cal window opens as shown. Make sure the PC sheet looks similar.

To use a hit die, the player can drag the die to their character on the CT (or double click too, I think).

Make sure the PC is on the CT when you apply a long rest from the CT menu.

The problem is this the Hit Dice are not there and are not coming back, resetting, being restored, or adding when I click Long Rest, whether or not if try, Leveling them, or even drop the dice on the hit dice box.
MY players were not the cause of this problem I updated and then this happen, no one was online looking or messing with player character sheets.
this seems more of a BUG or a Coding error. b/c it is not just my one player character sheets it is all of them and any new ones i make.
I have no extensions, i have not done anything different or downloaded anything to effect FG other than updating it.

[Zacchaeus]

I suspect what has happened here is that the hit dice has been cleared from the Class & Level data dialog. Click the magnifying glass at the right hand of the line at the top of the sheet where it says class & Level and you will almost certainly find that the HD is missing. Drag the correct dice and drop it into the box and everything will restore.

If this is happening in a new campaign with no extensions then find your FGData folder (click the small folder icon top right of the start screen) and find the rulesets folder. Delete the 5e.pak file and then update FG. If that doesn't cure the issue delete the 5e.pak and the CoreRPG.pak files and then update.

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't read far enough back. Since there is more than just the HD issue I would do the above. It looks like your ruleset didn't update properly.

TY this (Delete the 5e.pak file and then update FG.) fixed the issue for making new character sheets. I'm going through and fixing the HD now TYVM

ok, I'm having a weirdly opposite issue. Hit dice don't go down when they're rolled. Rolling the Hit dice does heal as it should, but it always says the PC has max HD. If you click on the magnifying glass under class, you can manually type in how many hit dice have been used, which will make the number at the bottom of the sheet go down accordingly.

Is the player or DM using the hit die? Is the PC on the CT? What extensions is the DM using? Does it happen with all extensions off?

Thanks for the response Lord Entrails! Issue solved. Ran through your questions. It's only when the DM does it. When players use HD it does mark down.

Glad you got it sorted and thanks for posting back. I actually didn't remember their was different behavior between player and GM. :)
