Greetings! Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, these forums' search function aren't the best =P
One of my players is a Ranger who took the Hunter's Edge: Flurry feature, which when he designates a target as a 'Hunted Prey', he gets bonuses (or rather, less harsh penalties) to his 2nd and 3rd attacks against said target on turns. So I've been trying to work out how to get either of the "IFT: CUSTOM (Hunt Prey); MAP: -3" or "IFT: CUSTOM (Hunt Prey); MAP2: +2; MAP3: +4" and "Hunt Prey" scripts to work. It took me forever to figure it out, but eventually I got it; it relies on us still using the MA# Modifier Buttons. The MAP: -3 requires the player to exclusively use their first 'to hit die' on all of their attacks, and instead utilize the MA# buttons. And the MAP2/3 versions let them use the 2nd and 3rd 'to hit' dice, but again still with the appropriate MA# button clicked.
Either way, it kind of sucks; I sort of figured that the players, by using the default character screen with the 3 columns of attacks indicating their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd+ attacks, those 2nd and 3rd attack buttons would negate me or the player having to hit the MA# Modifier button. Is there any way around this? I can see in the chat window that the game recognizes it to be [ATTACK #2] or [ATTACK #3] when rolling the respective to hit dice, so I tried an effect of "ATK2: 2" but it didn't work unfortunately.
Also, completely separate but while I'm posting, there's no way for the game to recognize the range of a target for the sake of To Hit modifiers, is there? Both for if beyond a weapon's range, or also while doing this I noticed that Longbows have the Volley trait that makes them harder to hit with if the target is within 30 feet. That'd be nice to be able to automate; "IFT: <= 30; ATK: -2", or so on. This one I understand is a bit of a long shot, but you never know, haha.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
