5E Autowarding Bond (Automatic Warding Bond)

[jammaster]

Hello. This is an extension that helps with the Warding Bond. It does the following:

Creates an effecect that creates a link between caster and target
When the target is damaged, the damage is transferred to the caster
When the target is damaged more than 60 feet away, the spell breaks as per definition
The effect cannot be applied to self
The transfered damage is correctly typed


It cannot do the following:

Handle multiple actors with the same name in the combat tracker (To be fixed soon)


FAQ:

Q: What if the caster is resistant/immune/vulnerable to some of the transferred damage? A: https://www.sageadvice.eu/warding-bond/ (https://https://www.sageadvice.eu/warding-bond/)
Q: What is the source of the transferred damage? A: https://www.sageadvice.eu/is-warding-bond-the-source-of-its-generated-damage-instance/


You need to remove and re-add the Warding Bond spell from the character sheet for this extension to work!

This extension is for D&D 5E, and is tested to work with FGU (Fantasy Grounds Unity). If you use the non unity version, the distance bond breaking probably will not work.

The repository can be found at https://bitbucket.org/JamMaster/autowardingbond/src/master/.

This extension should be compatible with other extensions, but if not, please tell me and I will try to fix it!

Hello, jammaster
Thank you for your creation. When I tried it out by placing the normal Warding Bond effect on a target, the extension did in fact change the target's effect and added an effect to the caster. However, we the target received damage, I got a script execution error - [string "autowarding_bond100:..n_damage_override.lua"]:191: attempt to call field 'getReductionType' (a nil value). The target, foe and caster were all on a map and all within 30'. There were no other effects on the target or caster. I am running FGU 4.4.3 in a 5e campaign. I turned off all extension except for the Autowarding Bond.

Any thoughts?
