Let me start of saying i am terribly sorry if this Thread is in the wrong category, i'm uncertain where to put it, will delete and move if someone tells me where it should go
Hi everyone, i am new to the Fantasy Grounds forums and program, been working for many years building my own custom system and have had relative success on Tabletop Sim but now i want to expand and as such i am moving my system over to Fantasy Grounds (If anyone is interested, it is based off of an old cult classic favorite of mine, Warlords Battlecry)
I have decided that the DnD 5.0 Ruleset is the closest akin to what i have been using, it just requires tweaking, personally i am a graphic designer and i have a few friends who are proffesional coders so i am certain it can be made to work
I do have some questions that i would like to see if anyone here can anwser for me, will look through the tutorials some more, but i would like to have as much of this basis as possible before taking up their time with helping me create
Things i am trying to figure out:
1. Adding damage types, in the base there is fire, slashing, piercing, that kind of thing - can anyone direct me to the .XML that holds the root for these values? and if applicable, where the calculation is in order to make the code add these when it picks up things like Vulnerabilities, Immunities and so on
2. In regards to said Vulnerabilities - What XML is that located in? as my system uses a variety of Vulnerabilities and Resistances in contrast to the DnD flat 50%
3. I have located how to alter the values within say, the character sheet, but i have failed to find how to add additional categories and the like within the sheet, as in i would like my characters to have a trackable Mana value - is it as simple as creating a new one, copying the Anchor section values and tweaking them until it fits on the screen?
For anyone that takes an interest or has any knowledge to offer on any of the above i would be eternally grateful :)
