This power is in range, but the SWADE system thinks its out of range.

Somethings fishy with SWADE and CORE - lots of range stuff like the blood splats appearing at random locations on maps, Gang Up bonus not always working etc.

From testing I can see this only affects powers that have damage, like Bolt. If you remove the damage from the attack information, the (Out of Range) message doesn't appear.

I have seen this as well. I have been putting off running tests on a few things. Will add to the list.

Yeah, I noticed this in a SWADE game I ran a few Saturdays back, the blood splats were appearing at random locations on the maps, along with Gang Up bonuses and Encumbrance penalties not updating when encumbrance changed.

I'm not familiar with the system, but trying to help cover while Ikael is away.

Can someone help walk me through specific steps to see these issues? (assuming I know nothing about Savage Worlds or how the ruleset works)

Thanks,

I am happy to help, do you want to arrange a screen-share?

I gather the blood-splat issue is a sign of a larger problem that is not limited to SWADE as the third party portal extension which was created for 5e but works with all CORERPG sets is broken as well.

If we can find a time; my schedule is pretty randomized with kids, which is why I'm working all sorts of hours.
Otherwise, just a step-by-step would be useful too.

Yes, the blood splats is a larger issue to do with FGU vs. FGC image data being vastly different; which needs some API fixes that I haven't had a moment to fix yet.

Ok, I was able to find the Out of Range issue for the next patch; but the Gang Up seemed to be working fine.

As I mentioned to Doswelk, the blood splats is a larger issue where I need to investigate and refactor APIs.
