Dungeon Crawl Classics Role Playing Game Ruleset - Bug reports, feedback, etc..

[leozelig]

Happy New Year, crawlers!

I have been busy adding adventures to the store, but I am due for some ruleset maintenance. I am working on a fix for save actions (in powers) not working for ability checks. It's a bit more of a rewrite than I anticipated, but on its way. I am also going to add some new modifiers for the power cycler - definitely HP and possibly HD (useful for lay on hands). Stat multipliers are also being considered - for example, half HP damage. There will be 1 or 2 minor bug fixes in there as well.

Check out the Discord server for a list of anticipated future DCC/MCC/XCC releases for the FG store!

Cheers,
Leo

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. How do I start using the new crit tables in Dungeon Denizens? I see they are in there. Is there a trick to activating them?

Hi wingspan99,

Great question. Currently, it's a manual roll from the table. I will build this into the DCC ruleset so you only need to enter the letter and dice like usual - for example, 'A/d6'. Should be working in a week or two.

Thanks for the feedback.

Update 2026-02-26:


[Fixed] Character creation with Add Zero button not working for 'Any' or 'Demi-Human' race selections.
[Updated] Slash command /funnel prompts for the roll method for ability scores.
[Updated] Slash command /funnel accepts a game system parameter. For example, '/funnel 2 xcc' creates 2 PCs for XCC RPG, as long as you own the core rules module for the specified game system.

Update 2026-03-12:


[Updated] Slash command /funnel checks for core rules module when character type is specified and generates error message if module is not found.
[Added] Support for NPC auto-crit rolls on Dungeon Denizens tables.

The latest update adds support for the Dungeon Denizens monster crit tables. Let me know if you have any questions or issues with it.

Cheers,

I may be doing something wrong. But when I try to make a monster wearing armor use the right crit dice it just keeps rolling a d4.

Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug? Image attached.66953

It needs a table name first. Use the full table name exactly as it appears in the tables list. For example:

Table 4-2: Fumbles/d12

Updates are on hold for a few weeks until the next CoreRPG release, but at the next opportunity, I can modify the parsing to look for a dice clause only.

Sorry it took so long to respond! That did the trick. Thank you very much for your help.

Also being able to just click and drag the tables over would be easy for the user. Not sure how practical that is to implement though.

How did you fix it

Fix what??

I’m planning some basic ruleset maintenance once the new CoreRPG update goes live. I’ll post a list of changes as usual.

I might have send that by mistake but I was looking how to fix the sanity and honor extension error for 5e

I am getting errors when using the dice tower. It basically doesn't work.

I get this errror:

[5/17/2026 10:18:11 PM] [ERROR] Handler error: [string "GGDCCRULESET:..pts/manager_dicetower_gg.lua"]:15: bad argument #1 to 'match' (string expected, got nil)

It doesnt seem to occur in other rulesets.

Just pushed an update that should address this. Please run a new Check for Updates.

Thank you! I can confirm its working. :)

The Dice Chain buttons (+1d, +2d, -1d, -2d) seem to be broken; they do not change the die nor automatically turn off after the roll.
