View Full Version : Overriding Help Links for help_library_masterindex

Hi guys,
Im trying to replace/override the help links on three data types for MoreCore.
Basically the help link is using the one defined for help_library_masterindex but I need to add in custom/specific ones for Rolls, Spells and Abilities.
At the moment they go to the Campaign Data help pages.
thanks!

I don’t think it’s going to be possible without some custom coding.
Everything is built to allow indexes to behave similarly. In order to create unique features for any specific window type, the index definitions and libraries to parse them have to be enhanced. (LibraryData and the masterindex class/scripts)
You might be able to do it another way, but it would take more work or be more fragile.
* Does it make sense for those record types to use the master index, or maybe they could be built like the effects/modifiers windows?
* Do the record types belong in adventures, or are they more of an overall game/campaign resource?

Hi JPG they are more like Modifers/Effects.
Ill have a look and see if that gives me some alternate ideas.

Let me know what you find. I would be up to adding some basic customizations to master lists like that, but changes would be queued for next revision which would be 3-4 months out.
I can see custom help URL links being useful for some record types.

TBH I could not work out how I was inheriting that help link so I just overrode the help link for all of them...
