After 3 plus years of using FG I realize I'm still making basic mistakes. Being self quarantined has given me some time to dig into the program and try and learn things so I have a few questions which some I'm sure will be embarrassing considering how long I've used the program.
1. Is it possible to create categories on the abilities tab of a character sheet? For example I would like to create tabs for class and race to better distinguish the items that get put in here during character creation and leveling.
2. This is silly but do I need both the PHB and Xanther's guide loaded? It seems Xanther's has everything and my players keep making mistakes during leveling by opening one book over the other.
3. Also if I'm only loading certain books for my players but they own the content is there a way to prevent them from using it other then telling them not too. Example in the new campaign we just started I didn't want stuff from the Sword Coast Guide of the TOA players guide but one of my players was able to use it because he owned it.
4. I suck at effects, I'm trying to learn them and thank god for the complete effects packaged on here but are there any prebuilt effects for racial benefits?
5. See #4 but for magic items or anything else to make DMing easier. I spend so much time trying to get relatively simple things to work.
6. I've showed my players numerous times how to change the damage on a weapon for versatile weapons but they continue to "forget" Is the only method besides this for versatile weapons to have a second weapon in the actions tab set for that?
7. One of my players is playing a hex blade, and has pact weapon. I'll be blunt this player is a bit if a pain, and the thought of having to come up with a weapon of his choosing every time he uses this and make it magical is giving me shivers. Any ideas?
I may have more but this is all I can think of at the moment.
Thanks
