Hi. I was so excited to buy the ruleset for Unity and it's not working. To begin with, when I create a campaign (or upload it), this log comes out:

This is a known issue that is being investigated. I have merged your post with the Official Bug Reports Thread

ShotGun Jolly
April 24th, 2020, 20:13
Use this thread to post any ruleset specific issues to track and get resolved. When reporting, please provide steps in reproducing the issue and any images if possible.

When using FGU, the ability to edit maps and use fgu features (True Visibility) are disabled.

Also, not really a bug. But a clarification, when rolling and you get extra success, it reports doom is generated, when it should be reporting that momentum is generated. Edit. This has been clarified, reports show different results depending on if a player rolls or the GM rolls


FGU Findings

1. When manual dice are rolled in the chat box, the results of those dice to not appear. And the dice do not stick around long enough to be able to read them all.
2. The dice icons for damage do not show in the chat window when rolling the damage dice, as it would in the FGC version.
3. Combat Tracker bug in the FGU side, that any NPCs added to a map will stay invisible to players. Even if you toggle invisibility for the actor on and off, it will stay invisible. (Update: Issue is gone, Removing the images, and then re adding them seems to have stopped this glitch)
4. If you manually add a NPC to the tracker. (Right click on tracker and add new) and not drag a NPCs from the table, when you click on the icon to bring up the character sheet, FGU will crash. Update: The crash does not happen when you create the NPC in the NPC folder first, and then drag to the tracker

General bug (FGU, FGC)
1. When you add a fortune point to the roll. (which should add a dice that automatically add a die which just rolled a 1) it incorrectly adds 2 successes and does not reference if the skill had focus. In other words, if you do not have focus in the skill, when you use a fortune, it should only grant 1 success. If you have any focus at all, then it should grant 2.

Thanks

The dice issue would be due to using dot notation. Once changed to alphanumeric names, it should stop erroring.

Having the ability to roll the stats from the NPCs would be very beneficial. This would allow the same automation as it is for the characters. If using unity, and trying to run the game, there is no way you will be able to see the dice results long enough to be able to determine your successes. Unless I am missing an option here.
Have you tried what I described here? https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?52948-Conan-2d20-news&p=499499&viewfull=1#post499499

It can be a little hit-or-miss to get the double-click on the attribute or expertise field to work, but it does allow you to do rolls similar to PCs.

Although not a bug, but it would be a nice Quality of Life improvement.

If using unity, and trying to run the game, there is no way you will be able to see the dice results long enough to be able to determine your successes. Unless I am missing an option here. Can this be investigated when time permits?

I have a suggestion, as it was something that I had placed into my more core extension.

I was able to select the attribute that needed rolling, and then add the bonus (Exp and Foc) to that attribute prior to rolling. When I made the roll, it took into account the bonus and gave me the success in the chat window.

For example..

If the NPC was to make a parry roll..

My combat bonus is 3
Combat bonus covers the skills (Melee, Parry, Ranged Weapons, and Warfare) Seeing Parry is based off of coordination attribute. I would select that attribute, add the bonus and make the roll.. and it allowed for it to be captured in the dice box, and you can see the successes calculated.

I see what you did, you double click the attribute, then double click the bonus, when you roll the dice, it shows the attribute skill and the bonus in the chat window. It would be nice to be able to have the two add to give you ability to auto calculate the successes. But again until you can see the dice results in FGU you still can not what the NPC rolled. You just see the numbers from the stats.

34514

If you doubleclick the attribute and expertise, like you did, that will set the TN for the roll in the lower gem. Then just grabe the gem and drag it into the chat window. Once you do that, It should roll just fine.

It's one thing to test this in the vacuum of or test group, but it's another for the world to test it in ways we couldn't think of.

If I can stress the importance on one thing to fix.. is fix it so the rolls do not generate "Doom" but generates Momentum. That saying what it says is going to cause confusion.

That's only when the DM makes the roll. When the players make a roll it will say momentum.

I noticed that too - it was when the GM was making a roll. I think it assumes the GM doesn't roll for players. But, as you say, the actual end result of any task roll is that momentum can be generated. It is only unspent momentum for NPC tasks that is converted into Doom. So, the wording is a little misleading, even if the end result they were thinking of was to add doom.

Getting forgetful now are we? ;-)

I saw those too. The first error means that the results on d20 rolls look a little fuzzy in the chat window as FG is writing a number on the dice result graphic where the graphic already has a number.

Not sure about the second one. If the radial menu icons are defined properly elsewhere then it won’t be an issue (other than raising the error).

Hello,

The missing TTF is a known issue that we are actively working on. The file we are using to make the custom die roll results is a fgf file, which Unity does not accept. We are working on that.
The graphics_radial.xml error will be fixed on the next update. For some reason that error was not showing up when I tested it, so I didn't realize I left an artifact in the code.

Thanks for the update. We can work around it until it's fixed.

I've got a game I'm running tomorrow morning. What I've done as a workaround since you can still roll from the sheets and get results is created a fake PC (under GM control) and preloaded dice multiples into the skills and combat tabs. Then I use the sheet as my "dice roller". That way you still get results. It's one extra step and you have to do the math manually (bc there's no way to load all possible combos) but it's doable...

Hi all, today I was invited to play a tabletop game of Conan, so I ran fantasy grounds as we were playing to see how things worked. Here are a few findings.

Some of the things we found were this, and some were already mentioned above.


1. Effects - Vicious - Any weapon that rolled that has this effect, the extra damage is not accounted for and has to be done manual.

2. Minion and group control - There is no easy way to manage squads or groups. As all NPCs are listed individually. It would be cool to be able to have something similar in the combat tracker like in the savage worlds ruleset for handling groups.
3. Table rolling D20 - some tables, which require 2D20 do not roll 2, but only 1 die. A person needs to manually change it.. But they may not know how to do it.

4. Fortune adding wrong. Fortune still adds incorrectly and still auto gives two successes when used on a roll. And does not reference the focus number.

5. The actual Improvised quality description is missing from in the list of qualities, even though the rules explaining how to use the improvised quality is there.

ProfDogg
May 2nd, 2020, 23:44
Some weapons have multiple qualities (or have the Unforgiving quality which is Vicious with a qualifier). So you have to decide whether you use Vicious or the alternate qualities (or if it qualified under Unforgiving).

ProfDogg
May 2nd, 2020, 23:54
I was thinking about mobs today too (I also ran a game using Vultures of Shem). I don't know if there's a way to merge mobs and then separate them (as individuals die and then drop out dropping the mob below 4). I just ran them using GM adjudication.

ProfDogg
May 2nd, 2020, 23:59
Jolly: How are you tracking damage on the tracker (or elsewhere) for same-named foes that have appended numbered names? Since they link to the Foes entry and they all have the same link I couldn't just add in damage for one individual. I ran combats with notes in my head for damage tracking. After the session I figured out I could've just create an Effect on each individual Foe to track the individual damage. I'm trying to think if there's an easier way than that besides the ol' pencil and scrap paper next to the computer....

Correction to my previous statement, I found a ruling otherwise: "If one or more Effects are rolled when rolling for damage, then all Qualities that trigger on an Effect will trigger." (Core, p.151). We had been playing that you only got one Quality per effect (not certain where we saw or thought that). So Vicious always kicks in, just a question of what X value is. An Unforgiving attack would still require GM adjudication.

Corrected from: "Nerd Eye has it on their to-do list. I cant find the exact reference (too many threads on Conan) but they said it most likely won't be in the next update due to time constraints. The workaround is to roll off a sheet for damage dice. One of my players figured out you can roll d20s off the gem in the lefthand corner. Just type the number of dice in it and then roll the gem."

Apologies, just figured out how to do that gem roll myself. You out your target number in the gem and then select the number of pips for number of dice. Then you roll off the gem. Still need to do a damage dice off a sheet...

I'm not seeing this.

The combat tracker code is based on CoreRPG and that copies each NPC (foe) to the combat tracker database - it doesn't link back to the master foe record in the campaign data list.

I'm not seeing this.

The combat tracker code is based on CoreRPG and that copies each NPC (foe) to the combat tracker database - it doesn't link back to the master foe record in the campaign data list.

I just redid it, both by dropping them in directly from the Foes tab and then setting up a Battle with them, and you're right. They are tracking separately. I couldn't get the damage to track earlier so I assumed it was some linking issue. It seems good now...

The tracker works perfectly. The issue is, it does not handle MOBs. Conan, many of the minion fights, are mobs. Lots of mobs, which represent high numbers of canon fodder for the players to wade through. The problem, MOBs which consist up to 5 NPCs, which act as a single entity, they are also damaged and can die as a single entity.
In my games I use the MOB rule as much as I can, as the game mechanics are designed to work best, and most balanced (IMOH) when using mobs.

Essentially, you have
A) MOBs, which are 5 identical minions,
B) Squads, which are 4 identical minions lead by a toughened or nemesis NPC, or a PC.

When playing a game, having over 25 separate entries just for minion NPCs is very cluttered, and hard to track, so I would like to see the base combat tracker streamlined to make it smoother.

So I have two suggestions.
1- Do the grouping technique, that the tracker in the Savage worlds ruleset.
2 - Add a tab or additional sections to the NPC character sheets in which you can track multiple stats for Minions. (Which I think is the best solution to this)

I add a roughed up image of what I am suggesting. When you open up a NPC from the the list.. Nothing changes, it all looks the same. BUT add an addition tab to the side, where it says, Main, Combat, Sorcery, Notes. Add a new tab called MOBs or Squad.. Then when you click on it it changes to the Mob page, here the stats, the rollers are the same as the first page, but has 5 spots to track the minions vigor and resolve a place for any special talents or spends.. You still keep all the dice rolling automation. Doing this, will allow a player to add multiple NPCs to the combat, but keeps it being only 1 entry on the tracker..

34876

This should be easy to do.. and it makes the game work much smoother.

Sorry I think I ran into another bug. While trying to create a map in the ruleset, it won't open map editor. It only has the "Mask, Drawing, and Eraser Mode" in the upper left corner. It works fine in the base 5e ruleset.
I also tried starting a new campaign with Conan. I did not load any modules, Go to assets >folder>paste a png into the images folder. Go to Images on the assets window and drag the map to the images window. Opens the map but with only the above tools. (after I unlock it)

Hi! For some reason the manual GM rolls are not showing in the chat in the Unity version. I have tried the preferences and /die reveal command and reinstalling the program, but nothing works. Its super frustrating when everything else in this game is so well don and we have been having a lot of fun playing it. But not being able to see the rolls in the chat makes the game really hard especially in combat. Is there something I am missing or something I can do? Thank you.36146

@statik367 @Sunspoticus @OmegaCrits

Guys,
3 questions for you.

1.
Has any more thought been put into the combat tracker yet?
IE: For handling MOBs and Squads?
If so, when do you expect it to be ready for update?

2.
Again with the combat tracker. Can you consider removing initiative order numbers, and replace it with a completed action toggle or icon. We all know that this game does not have an initiative order. But is decided by the players, and the GM if he uses Doom. So, when a player or NPC acts, the GM just needs to check the button and it moves automatically to the bottom of the list.

3.
Can you consider adding in a Momentum counter for players, much like the group momentum counter. If a player or NPC makes a success and gains momentum, the momentum is added to the counter, when the NPC or player uses the momentum generated, he can just click it as he spends it.. when at the end of the the players turn and the GM selects the next actor, The remainder of the pool is then added the to the group momentum to its max of 6. This was a feature on several of the fan based extensions that are out there. And it was highly used and requested by the players during the time before this official ruleset.

Thanks
Jolly

1.) The Talent Trees and sample Talent tree mages aren't in the module. The info on how to read the talent tree is missing. Seeing the tree is needed to determine experience cost of talents and to hep quickly determine talent prerequisites. The ore book talen't don't give experience cost in the talent's description like in non-core books that have other talents.

2.) When managing and creating characters if I roll a die the result is given as 0 and and error message shows up. Rolling on a table doesn't do this.

3.) The font used to display the name of a character in a character sheet, NPC does not display many common symbols. minus sign, apostrophe, etc. that are in character names in the various Conan source books and pregens from the quick play modules. The text will just show up as blank for those charters. The font most likely doesn't have symbols to use for this.

4.) Some ranged weapons also can be used as melee ones, but the space/entry area for Reach only shows up in melee weapons.

1.) f you drag a PC sheet to the Combat Tracker the character portrait isn't showing up showing up in the tracker.

2,) You can move the character portrait from the combat and also from the character sheet to a map to show a charter on amp.

3.) A player can't drag a token to the character portrait on a character sheet if one wanted to use a token for the character instead of s portrait image to use for maps.

The above are when using the set in FG Classic. No idea if Unity version is also having the same bugs.

I deleated all the Conan files in the Vault Folder and reran the updater to ensure that none of the Conan files were corrupted and I had afresh copy of the Ruleset, etc..

I did some screen shots to show some of the problems.

Two PC Characters - Named : Test 1 & 2 when dragged to combat tracker. The wrong image is displayed in the tracker and not the correct portrait. See highlighted area in tracker. This happens with any PC sheet. It's wanting to use the 1st image in my shared folder or last image used for an NPC.

36871

The 2nd image has a grid over one of the Conan tiles and 4 tokens from token modules. The 2 PC characters can't be added as FG won't allow the portrait to display on the map like a token. NPC tokens show ok along with anything I just drag from a token module onto the map. Character Portraits aren't showing up.

That's weird... Most troubleshooting on these stems from dropping and dragging from the NPC / Foes tabs (technically you're supposed to drop-and-drag only from the Encounters / Battles tab for most rulesets). Then you drop and drag the Minis and Tokens on your map from the Tracker. But that doesn't look like your issue.

Still, try it though, create a Battle and use the button to place those NPCs on the Tracker. See if that works for them. That shouldn't affect your PCs / Heroes though. Maybe it's an issue with the folder your portraits / tokens are in?

I'm not a tech guy btw, just someone who is a frequent end-user for FG.

A few things based off recently running a game.


Difficulty buttons labeled as DC1 etc., but should be D1, D2... A minor thing, but DC is a (single) d20 based mechanic (Difficulty Class), Conan 2d20 has Difficulty 1, Difficulty 2, etc..
Images don't have the ID functionality - this means the GM can't hide spoilers from the players (in an image name - it happens often).
Please, please, please add the attack roll to a weapon combat entry - especially on a NPC. This will speed up combat no end!
Reference manual - split sections into more headings. For example, skills would be GREAT in their own sections. All of my players were new to Conan 2d20 and only one had their own copy of the rules. Being able to quickly and easily share a Reference Manual record specific to one skill (not the whole skill list and say "scroll down - lots") would have been great.
Connected to the previous entry - it would be fantastic to have links next to each skill that open a window showing details of the skill.
Items - would it be possible to add some default "items" (weapons) to make it easier to create PCs and NPC - specifically unarmed melee, unarmed range and steely glare - the three different type of attacks default.
Please add the different threaten attacks to items (weapons). This will make it much easier to use when needed.
No mood lighting button.
Is there a way to track encumbrance?
What are the plans for the combat tracker? I know there isn't an initiative order in Conan 2d20, but having a nicer way to track who's acted, and also easily track stress, traumas, etc..

For Threatened attacks in the type section if you type in Spell it adds in a Range section, even though it isn't a spell. I had to do that when I entered in all the Quick Start PCs and have been entering in all the NPCs from all the source books. No idea why the designers of the set set it up this way.

Jolly,

I'd like to apologize for the delayed response. To answer your questions, for 1 and 2 this is something that is being worked on for the tracker and we hope to have an update in the next few weeks. As for Question 3, We have not considered this as in our experience personal momentum doesn't last very long before it goes into the pool or gets lost. At this time it is not something that we are looking further into.

Som more info on a bug I reported.

The bug with certain text not showing up is because the rulest use the Crom font to display text in certain areas.

I've attached 2 images showing the text problems the red boxes in the illustration show the names in area of the russet that use the Crom font and in area that don't.'

I also did some tests by typing out various names in a Word file and looking at how the looked in the Crom font and in other fonts and can confirm that the Crom font is the problem. Another Conan based font ought to be used indited in the ruleset so names, etc. will display correctly. Many names from the various Conan RPG books won't display corrector currently.

Update on the portrait bug. The bug is only occurring in old campaigns now. I made a new campaign yesterday and the bug didn't show up. Not sure if something is occurring that is causing some sort of corruption f older campaigns.

For Talent can you add an entry to out in the experience point cost of the talent. In all the Conan supplements for the new Talent Tree ones give an Experience cost.

You currently can't get text to be bold or italic in the Talent description for some odd reason.

Hello everyone, I am sorry for the delay in responding to most of these. I could say it's been a busy time for us, but there really isn't any excuse. We will do our best to respond quicker going forward. That said, this will be a long post where I do my best to answer everything I can thus far that has not yet been answered. After writing it all up, I had to break it up into two posts.


1.) The Talent Trees and sample Talent tree mages aren't in the module. The info on how to read the talent tree is missing. Seeing the tree is needed to determine experience cost of talents and to hep quickly determine talent prerequisites. The ore book talen't don't give experience cost in the talent's description like in non-core books that have other talents.

2.) When managing and creating characters if I roll a die the result is given as 0 and and error message shows up. Rolling on a table doesn't do this.

3.) The font used to display the name of a character in a character sheet, NPC does not display many common symbols. minus sign, apostrophe, etc. that are in character names in the various Conan source books and pregens from the quick play modules. The text will just show up as blank for those charters. The font most likely doesn't have symbols to use for this.

4.) Some ranged weapons also can be used as melee ones, but the space/entry area for Reach only shows up in melee weapons.

1. I assume Talent tree mages is a typo and you meant images. With these fantasy based games, sometimes it's hard to tell. We are working on doing a complete overhaul of the roulebook, and hope to have that out to everyone as soon as we can.

2. I don't know when this happens to test it. If it is when you grab the d20 and drop it into the chat window, then that was fixed. If it happens at a different time, can you please give me more details of how you create the error, and maybe a screenshot or two would also be helpful.

3. That is a problem with the TTF font we were given. We can look into it and see if we can get a better font.

4. Under Combat, if you click on the Type (TYP) it can be changed to the different types of combats. Once you do that and then click on the shield to open the details window, it will show you the areas you can then fill in for that type of attack. The System will save it, even when you change the type again, and you no longer see that. Once you switch the that type after you enter the data the first time, it should auto populate those fields.


1.) f you drag a PC sheet to the Combat Tracker the character portrait isn't showing up showing up in the tracker.

2,) You can move the character portrait from the combat and also from the character sheet to a map to show a charter on amp.

3.) A player can't drag a token to the character portrait on a character sheet if one wanted to use a token for the character instead of s portrait image to use for maps.

The above are when using the set in FG Classic. No idea if Unity version is also having the same bugs.

1. I'm not sure why this is happening to you. When I did it, it worked fine. Maybe the file path saved in the campaign DB is messed up. I know you said you reinstalled the files. Have you tried creating a new campaign and seeing if it does it still?

2. Also not sure about this. I can move a portrait to the CT and then from the CT to the map. You can not move from the character sheet directly to the map, is that what you are looking to do?

3. The images on the character sheets are portraits , not tokens. Which is why you can't drag a token on. That can be changed, if people think it would be better, but the way 2d20 works and their very lax and loosey goosey way of combat, we figured a portrait would be better in this case. If people disagree, we can always change it to a token, but be aware, if we do that, all portraits currently saved to characters will disappear and they will have to be replaced with new token images.

1. We can look into that. I will bring it to our UI guy and see what he says.
2. We removed the ID function, again, because of the loosey goosey way 2d20 is, we din't think it would be needed. We actually have a bit of internal conversations about this. If everyone thinks this is needed, we can add it back.
3. Maybe it's too early on a Monday morning, but I am not understanding what you mean by this.
4 - 7. I will bring this to the team and get their thoughts on it. It makes sense.
8. We can add it back in, if those feel it is useful.
9. There is not yet, but it is on our list of things we are looking to add in the near future.
10. We are actively working on the combat tracker now. We are hoping to have something put out in the next couple weeks. As I have said about the loosey gooseyness of 2d20, we are working on a way to make the tracker useful and look good, which for a system like this is turning out to be a bit harder than we expected. But this is actively being worked on, and hope to figure it out soon.

Som more info on a bug I reported.

The bug with certain text not showing up is because the rulest use the Crom font to display text in certain areas.

I've attached 2 images showing the text problems the red boxes in the illustration show the names in area of the russet that use the Crom font and in area that don't.'

Crom Font Bug 1.jpg

Crom Font Bug 2.jpg

I also did some tests by typing out various names in a Word file and looking at how the looked in the Crom font and in other fonts and can confirm that the Crom font is the problem. Another Conan based font ought to be used indited in the ruleset so names, etc. will display correctly. Many names from the various Conan RPG books won't display corrector currently.

Update on the portrait bug. The bug is only occurring in old campaigns now. I made a new campaign yesterday and the bug didn't show up. Not sure if something is occurring that is causing some sort of corruption f older campaigns.

For Talent can you add an entry to out in the experience point cost of the talent. In all the Conan supplements for the new Talent Tree ones give an Experience cost.

You currently can't get text to be bold or italic in the Talent description for some odd reason.

1. Thank you for this update. I should have read all the comments before I started answering them, but now that I did all this typing, I'm too lazy to go back and fix it. As I mentioned earlier, we will definitely look into this font issue.

2. Re: portrait bug. Same as above, should have read ahead. But I'm glad it's working now. Unfortunately, how FG is set up, any updates done that adjust the system itself, do not always auto correct itself in the individual campaigns. We are trying to keep any major fixes like that to a minimum and push them all at once, so that you all don't have to constantly restart your campaigns.

3. Re: Talents. I will bring the experience cost to the team. As for the bolding, I believe that is a downside to how those particular fields are hard coded into the system. There is a notes field we could use instead, but it wouldn't show the "Description" title. We went with this because we felt it looked better this way, but if people want it the other way, we can certainly look into it further. However, this will be one of those things that won't break your campaign, but all the preloaded data would go away. Obviously, we would update the books to work correctly, but anything dragged to a PC sheet or such would have to be removed and re-dragged over.

That was a lot, Sorry for the info dump. I will nervously say this... For the time being, if for any reason we do not respond within 1 business day, please feel free to DM me. I say 1 business day, because obviously, weekends and holidays may delay a response. We do, more or less, work every day, but sometimes we tempt fates and venture out of the house.

Thanks for the responses. Some further info:


2. We removed the ID function, again, because of the loosey goosey way 2d20 is, we din't think it would be needed. We actually have a bit of internal conversations about this. If everyone thinks this is needed, we can add it back.
Images can have spoiler names - e.g. the necromancer's secret lair, and when shared with the players that results in spoilers. Being able to quickly change the name displayed to the players is a great tool available to the GM - they lookup images with the normal name, but the image name shared with the players is different. This is generic record sharing in FG, I don't understand why this wouldn't be a good piece of functionality due to the loosey goosey way of 2d20. Sure, if it was something that wasn't there already and took development time to do, then I can understand prioritizing over other development work. But I'm really surprised that this was actually removed from standard functionality.

Case in point - the "Neferet" image in the Vultures of Shem adventure module - when the PCs first meet her she's passing herself off as a handmaiden, if the players realize she's not who she says she is (which is easy when the image is shared) it'll break part of the adventure.


3. Maybe it's too early on a Monday morning, but I am not understanding what you mean by this.
For a GM to roll an attack they have to double-click on an attribute, then double-click on an expertise, and then drag/drop the TN to the chat window. The attribute and expertise will always be the same for a certain weapon type (melee or ranged), it would make the GMs life so much easier if there was an attack button/field in the attacks section of the NPC record that does all of this in one double-click - just like a PC can do on their skill TN field.

Related to this - it would be a good idea to add the same to the PCs attack entry, even though the PC has access to Melee and Ranged Weapons skill checks on their sheet, it's my experience that new-ish players waste a few seconds finding it - so it would be a time saver for players too, if they could just double-click on a field in the weapon entry in the A



8. We can add it back in, if those feel it is useful.
Please do. I find it a great immersion tool.

2. I don't know when this happens to test it. If it is when you grab the d20 and drop it into the chat window, then that was fixed. If it happens at a different time, can you please give me more details of how you create the error, and maybe a screenshot or two would also be helpful.

Thank you very much for the updates. Makes me feel better.

I wondering about this quote though. I'm using FGU and this has defiantly not been fixed. If I drop either the d20 or d6 on the chat I get a blank output. I've tried in new and old campaigns. I retry every time the ruleset is updated, hoping it was fixed, but so far no change. This is on two different computers with FGU installed.

A few more bugs and things.

Core Book - the Foes Shadow on the Wall and Child of Derketa have both a Minion and a Toughened version but the names don't indicate which is witch is witch.

Some foes in the other Conan RPG books have additional information that can be entered for Courage.

Example the Skeleton Warrior Giant in Conan the Thief has a Courage 0f 2D (Loyalty) and the Spider Horrors in Conan the Thief has a Courage given as 4 (Horror).

Ruleset- Some Items in other Conan products can't be entered.

Example 1.) In Conan the Mercenary has Siege Weapons these are like normal weapons but Encumbrance is not a number and is the word Crewed often followed by a number and they use other sizes than normal weapons.

Maybe adding in another Type called Siege that would allow for entering of the info for them would be a fix.

Naval Artillery from Conan the Pirate has the same problem.

Example 2.) Stats for Ships of the Hyperborean age can't be entered.

Example 3.) Watercraft from Conan the Barbarian can't be entered.

The fix in all cases seems to be to added other Items Types and/or Sub-Types so that these Items can be entered.

Some Foes have abilities that can't fit anywhere on the sheet.The Drauger for example, from Conan the Barbarian, has a section titled Curses and an Entry a description of Hospitality. The Vulture, from Conan the Brigand, has a section title Note and info on a Survival Test in it. Some other Foes in books have special sidebars of info that can't be linked.

Welcome to the FG forums Carlo.

Make a copy of the foe first. In the foe data list, drag/drop the link of the foe you want to copy - briefly drag it just a few pixels and then drop it - a copy will be created. Open up the copy and edit as required.

I did a quick search through the thread, so sorry if these have been reported already.

1) Foe expertise doesn't adjust the roll focus, it remains at 1 even when the expertise used isn't 1.
2) The Carousing events table has 1d20 assigned as the dice to roll, it should be 2d20.

Also re-mentioning the ability to automatically track total encumbrance on a PC - this is coming up more and more in my games. Functionality to track item weight and carried total is within the CoreRPG ruleset, which this ruleset is built on, so hopefully should be a fairly straightforward thing to do.

The CT support is super basic - all I really do in it is put a "1" in the order when someone has acted. Beyond that there's not much there in the CT.

Having said that, the ruleset is definitely in a playable form. I'm 3 sessions in to a campaign using it, and it allows us to play fine. Are there things that I think are missing and should be addressed/added? Yes. But, don't let that stop you playing. The main things for playing in a VTT are there. But, if you're expecting a high level of automation and tight integration between the usual FG functionality, then you may need to hold of a while longer.

If you roll off the character sheet, it tells you success levels and momentum (or Doom for the bad guys) that you generate. If you add a Fortune Point, it correctly calculates it being included. Honestly with this system, that's all the automation you need since the players and GM have to bargain for results from Momentum and Doom spends...

It is impossible to automate damage versus armor since all of that is conditional on how you spend your Momentum. If it tried, a GM would constantly have to keep rolling back the results like how you're stuck doing it in 5e or Pathfinder all the time.

Here's my new request: the ruleset had at one point the option to pin maps and images to the background like you can do it some of the other sets (so it's one less window to juggle). Somewhere along the way the option disappeared. Can we get it back?

Valyar
July 21st, 2020, 06:55
There are a lot of things that can be automated, even with the complex combat flow in Conan where we have different ways to spend momentum. The framework is there, I already know the ways how this can be done, but it is now up to the ruleset developers to actually make it work.

What bothers me is the way NPC rolls are handled - manually building dice pool and having to compare each time their attributes and exp/foc values in the character sheet. Why there is no automatic roll for NPC stats as it is for the damage? It is ok to add bonus dice to a pool from the widget in the bottom left but complete lack of roll?

I'm fairly certain that they're working on that based on your earlier feedback. But I've been running mobs with it as is now and I haven't had any issues. Honestly, I really don't like all of the automation that other GM's apparently love. I find that the computer just doesn't have the capability of handling every situation. I spend a lot of time correcting the computer in the 5e and other rule sets.

Ah, right you are. Sorry for my misunderstanding.

There does seem to be a few things that are in recent CoreRPG versions that have either been removed, or not included due to how the ruleset XML merges the FG GUI windowclasses - off the top of my head there's image identification (already reported/asked for) and the three image presentation modes. I'm sure there's more throughout the ruleset.

Valyar
July 22nd, 2020, 14:01
Can you give us specific examples of things you would like to see?
Absolutely! :) I would love to give feedback for improvement, as Conan 2d20 is one of my favourite games and I want the official ruleset in much better shape. At the moment, there are two community extensions for MoreCore that provide much more functionality than this one, including automation.

I will focus only on the NPC and Combat tracker, as this is the key for running a good game in efficient manner. Let me know if clarification is required.

NPC Sheet
- Implement rollable Expertise for NPCs and enable reporting related to the roll result like the players. I find extremely inconvenient to make manual rolls and count the degree of success against NPC sheet as I am playing pen and paper. I want to double-click on expertise such as Combat or Move and get roll made against the selected Difficulty and the chat output to display the same information.
- Implement Minion/Toughened/Nemesis markers to affect the default dice pool rolled for Expertise. When I double click the expertise I should roll the proper amount of dice. The pool should be modified accordingly using the Modifier box if the GM is using Doom.
- Implement trackers in PC sheet to track the amout of Wound/Trauma treated. In Conan wounds persist throughout adventure. You can treat them with successful first aid check, but can't get rid of them. There should be some way on the PC sheet to track how much wounds you got and how much of them are treated successfully, in order to reduce the increased difficulty for checks.

Combat Tracker
- Link PCs and NPCs Vigor, Resolve, Wounds and Trauma to columns in CT. Opening each time NPC sheet to make adjustments is time consuming and very '80s. :)
- Expose the NPC Expertise as rolls in their CT instance. This will speed up the game and you can link it to the targeting mechanics supported by CoreRPG. This way the chat will show much better information what is going on. Here you need to work with the OOB and etc.
- Expose the weapon/ damage in CT to roll damage from the CT

There are other improvements that I think of, but I think this is good start. :)
Since I already have Conan Core, Thief, Pirate, Barbarian and Geomorphic tiles as modules for my modules, I wonder if you like those proposals how long it will take to implement them?

I'm sure you know this, but I'm just covering off the basics so we're on the same page. You don't just roll Expertise in isolation - you need to also select the relevant attribute to go with the test. For example: Agility attribute + Movement expertise for Acrobatics, Brawn attribute + Move expertise for Athletics. The current ruleset allows you to double-click on the Attribute and double-click on the Expertise in the NPC sheet, this will populate the target number info in the graphic in the bottom left of the desktop - then you drag/drop that to the chat window to roll. This works (except for the already reported issue of Expertise not being used as the Focus level for the roll). So, you kinda get the reporting you're asking for already - you don't need to manually calculate the successes and doom from the NPC roll. So the core of the NPC roll system is there now.

However, it is very laborious to use. So, like @Valyar, I'd like some way to make this easier - maybe a radio check-box for the Attribute and then double-click on the expertise - one click, and a double-click; rather than the double-click, double-click and drag/drop we have now - plus, assuming the radio button remains in place, it will be quicker for repeatable skill checks (just a double-click).

Where the attribute and expertise can be combined together is for attack rolls (and maybe parry rolls as well?) - and this would be great to make combat checks a quick double-click on a melee attack, ranged attack and parry field (three fields in total) - or maybe even a single-click button, with the ruleset automatically combining the relevant attribute and the Combat expertise and rolling, all as part of the double-click/button press. This is definitely my biggest gripe about the implementation at the moment - combats just seem a big mess of double-clicks plus drag/drops from the GM side.

I would like to report another missing feature from the CoreRPG that must be there, as all my players are using it during combat:
- The Maximize/Minimize buttons on the image window class are missing. This prevents an image (like battle map for example) to be stretched as desktop between the chat box and the sidebar. This is very convenient in case players have many windows open and want to see the map at all times as background.

I would like to report another missing feature from the CoreRPG that must be there, as all my players are using it during combat:
- The Maximize/Minimize buttons on the image window class are missing. This prevents an image (like battle map for example) to be stretched as desktop between the chat box and the sidebar. This is very convenient in case players have many windows open and want to see the map at all times as background.

Screenshot is provided for reference:

That and the option to pin it to the back of the app like wallpaper... I can definitely get behind that change...

I hope all is going well and we will receive the new update soon! :) In the meantime, after few sessions, me and my two groups would like to place the following feature requests that we consider improvement in the quality of the ruleset:


Equipped weapon from Inventory tab appear in the Attacks section automatically. It is very annoying to have two instances of the items.
Counters for Treated Wounds/Trauma - implement counter to mark which of the wounds/traumas suffered during adventure is treated. In my previous campaign and during recent play we had cases where not all wound managed to be treated between the scenes. In the current sheet there is no convenient way to track this.
Automatic DC increase when Wound/Trauma is not treated - If there are wounds/traumas that are not treated, when skill roll is made the difficulty is increased automatically with the amount of untreated wounds.
Counters for Fatigue/Despair with automation - There is no way to track the Fatigue/Despair and implement their effects on the stress types. At the moment I am giving negative bonuses, which does the trick, but I am not sure if this was the intention or not. This is mostly cosmetic.


We also found the following very annoying bug:
Using tab to cycle between vigor/stress/wounds/trauma on NPC sheets is not working properly, only part of the boxes are cycled through, two of the resolve ones require a click.

Counters for Treated Wounds/Trauma

I added an Effect to my PCs called Wounds X (or Trauma X) Taken and set the duration for 999 rounds. Then whenever the PC is finally healed I just remove it. It doesn't do anything other than act as a counter and the duration really never expires (I doubt we'd ever have 999 rounds between adventures and I can always reset it at any time). Set X to number of Wounds taken.

Hi,

Sorry for the lack of responses, we are working on some of these. A few of the suggestions are being pushed off till we get other things implemented. Not that we are not considering them, it's just that some of them will be better once we get other things updated, like the CT. The map fix should have already gone out. I think we had a snag in the process on our end. I will look into it and see what I can do to make sure it goes out, if it didn't. As for the NPC lock button and the tab through issues. We will work on those and get them updated as soon as we can.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I think this is an issue only in FGU. The FGC version is working. I also have FGU and am seeing this behavior.
Not being able to just pick up a die and roll it as well, kinda limits FG. I've had to add "bonus die" to combat attacks so that the player can adjust it and roll damage or re rolls if necessary. However rolling a random d20 is not in the cards yet. I just have to note the number before the die disappear as nothing is in chat.

I believe he means, double clicking AGL and the CBT values to then selecting the number of dice, then grab the red crystal for a melee attack. It would be easier to have a ranged, melee and threaten button on the CT. Select the number of dice to roll and click the melee, ranged or threaten button on the individual foes in the CT. The buttons could add the two numbers from the foe entry sheet.

Currently I use the pips below the red crystal to add dice. Then use the "leaders" attributes to generate the TN.

However some way to group foes together in a squad or mob would be better. A mob or squad can quickly have more dice to throw than is allowed by the pips.

I keep getting the above error when ever trying to copy an item. Say make a copy of a creature so I can edit it in the current adventure. Adding weapons, equipment, spells to the Foe template. Moving creatures to a new category. Basically moving a "link" to any other item.

I've tried unloading all modules and extensions. Even creating a blank campaign with only the corebook. Same issue.
I have to click on the close button on the console before I can do anything else. Rather annoying.

To me, it seems like you may have an extension running that is interfering.
As you can see in the screenshot from @Jaybob32 above, there are no extensions being loaded. You can also note from that screenshot that FGU uses v3.3.12 of CoreRPG - which is a release ahead of FGC. This contains the file mentioned in the error message.

I said this before, but I am going to say it again in hopes NERD EYE will fix this. And with most of the fixes people are asking for, this should be one of the easiest of them all.

But when a GM rolls dice for an NPC, any successes beyond the difficulty generates momentum, it does not generate DOOM. What is stated in the current ruleset when ever a GM rolls the dice is not as per the rules of the game.

A GM never rolls and gets doom, he gets momentum and then can change it to doom after.

If a GM rolls any dice for a Player character, it shows in the tracker the the GM rolled dice for that particular player. BUT if that GM rolls dice for any NPC in the tracker, it simply states the GM rolls dice and does not tie it to the selected NPC. I though this may have been a preference setting, but I can not find any setting to correct this.

One more thing, a small thing.

The default number of dice for the Carousing Events table is only 1D20. Which means, any new user would need to click on the "lock" and then add another D20 to the roller. Not a game breaker in any level, just a quality of life improvement. This should be set to 2D20 per default.

During tonights game stream, there was some talk about the font size and text being cut off and fuzzy in the skills section and also in the backstory area. Also how fuzzy the dice looked when rolled. All of which has already been noted in this thread.

But what we also noted was if you scroll down to read text in the background section, as soon as you scroll down everything becomes out of alignment and looks like garbage.. see attached screenshot.


40645

The other question that popped up.. are the staggering of the skills and boxes intentional? They look like they are all out of alignment.

In this screenshot, some players were saying the last letter in the skill listings seemed like they were cut off. If you look at the command skill, it looks like part of the d is clipped. But the players were stating that on their screens many of the skills were effected this way.

Thanks Moon Wizard,

There seems to be a fine line in the settings to get it to look a little better... 100, is very small and hard to read and cut off.. 120 is a little better for reading and not cut off so much, but 150 its even easier to read but the the letters are cropped again. The 120 picture shows the dice, but I am sure that this had already been reported earlier in these forums.

After investigation, the die text doubling is a ruleset issue that will need to be addressed by the ruleset developer. For some reason, the developer replaces the icons for the dice display with icons already containing numbers; so the die result text is being drawn centered on top of the die icon.

I've forwarded on to Steve Albany who is the developer for the ruleset.

I believe it's only when you scroll the text box down. The lines don't match the text anymore and overlay it.

This has zero to do with scrolling, it's the skill names getting cut off at the end. See the picture. 40679 I made it bigger :)

The reason we did this is because 2d20 requires special facings for their dice that are not inherent in FG. To fix it, we had to load a font without the numbers defined and put a picture of the numbers on the dice. When we did it, we only had an FGF file. Because Unity doesn't allow for FGF files, it was defaulting back to the original font, which is why the numbers were doubled. I was having trouble fixing it because I don't have a lot of experience with editing TTF's. However, I was able to figure it out and this will be corrected next week.

The drag error is back as reported originally on this page: https://fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?56822-Official-Conan-2d20-Bug-Reports-Thread/page16 However now it's in both FGC and FGU for me.

Whenever I begin to drag a shield link the following appears: Script Error: [string "common/scripts/link_record.lua"]:33: attempt to call field 'getSingleDisplayText' (a nil value)

I'm guessing this is related to v3.3.12 CoreRPG being pushed to live today?

- Character sheet box alignment fix
- Font increase in unity for sheet labels and text to be more readable and easy on the eyes. Unity is looking bad compared to Classic.
- Reference Manuals - Add images, also in Images library, fix encoding issues all over the place

In the new release , the text in the RCH box is not centered but aligned left. Please fix.

I had mentioned this before I think But it a little more clear now. When some players are connected to the game, if they change the Melee/Ranged/Presence bonus in the box on the character sheet, combat tab. It just keeps adding or subtracting the bonus to infinity. I've seen Ranged bonuses of +3000.

I'm able to clear it if the player disconnects from FGU and I remove the +1 from the bonus, then change the appropriate stat to force a recalculation.
Some players have talents that add damage dice when make a certain kind of attack. ie melee
For now we are just adding the bonus die to each weapon.

This kinda happened to us as we were streaming 2 weeks ago.. the players bonus was just wildly scrolling and it went to 1000+. And there was no way to stop it. I also could not clear it, as the only way I was able to adjust the bonus was to use the mouse wheel. (But now I know thanks to you) Weird thing was, it was just scrolling up and up and up. Even when I took control of the character sheet.

The only way to stop it that we could figure out, was the effected player had to disconnect, and I had to re import the character sheet back into our game fresh.

I got video evidence of this if people need to see it in again.

Not entirely sure why it throwing those errors. Those variables are not in the code. It seems to be pulling the those files from CoreRPG instead of our ruleset.

Yep, that'll happen - because those scripts are called in the XML definition within the layered ruleset. Not being able to access the ruleset I don't know the exact way of avoiding this in this specific ruleset.

New bug:

Go into any NPC record. If there is data in the NOTES section (on the "Notes" tab) when the record is opened, it cannot be edited. Doesn't matter if it's locked or unlocked. The only way to edit existing NOTES entries is in the XML currently.

If you go into any NPC record and there is no data in the NOTES section, you can type text into the field as expected. However, if you do so, and then close that record and reopen it, you will find that you can no longer edit it.

This seems to be true for both NPCs that came with the ruleset and those that have been added by hand.

P.S. As an aside: every single panel and window has a completely broken tab order ... most of the fields you can't even get to just by tabbing, and those that you can get to often highlight in unpredictable ways (the selected field jumps around the page). Making new NPCs is painful because of this. If I had my druthers, the tabbing would work according to standard conventions and best practices.

Thank you for pointing this out. The notes tab was locking, however, you had to lock or unlock it, and then close the window and then re-open it. Obviously not intended. This will be fixed in the next update.

We also fixed the tabbing in the NPC sheet, so that should now work correctly as well.

Hi Netzilla,

statik37

Hi Shotgun,

Thank you for pointing this out. This one had us stumped for a bit. But it seems this error only happens in Unity. And that's because when you drop a token on the map, it is looking for a field names "senses" to tell it how to handle dynamic lighting and such. This is where darkvision would go, as an example. Unfortunately, NPC's in Conan have a stat field called senses. So the table is looking for a string field, and it's finding a number. We are looking into trying to figure out the best way to correct this with the least amount of impact on everyone. The quick fix would be to rename the field to something else, but then we would have to adjust that naming convention in the rulebook as well as Vultures of Shem and all other books we are currently working on. But most importantly, everyone would have to delete their current campaign and start a new one, as the DB has already been populated with this field.

We will get this resolved as quickly as we can
