AD&D 2e - new charecters starting with 0 hit points.

[Citael]

New characters are starting with 0 hit points.

GM must set initial HP. Is this correct?

Are hit points 0 after selecting a class?

Until you add a class they will have no hp.

HP 0 after seting the class

Now log says ... 'character' gained level 1 Mage. Gained 0 additional HP.

Old character log says ... ' gained level 1 in Thief. Gained 6 additional HP.

I cant reproduce this so you'll need to explain all your steps and stats/etc. Are you using a PHB (from FG book) class, if so which/etc.

Running with a clean campaign im able to reproduce this. I'm looking into it. My only guess is that FGU/CoreRPG changed something with dice and broke it as the code has been same for 3-4 years.

I'll update when I find it.

[celestian]

So it looks like "StringManager.convertDiceToString" no longer returns 1d4 when you send it a "dice" type of "d4". Works as expected with 2d4 or anything but 1. This causes the code that depended on that format to work to break. I've corrected it and will submit it as hotfix.

[Citael]

Thank you!

[celestian]

Thank you!

It looks like they've pushed out the hotfix. You should be working now.

Me again ...

HP for new character is ok ... but ...

in effects, [1d6] is not working, always return "0". Sintax [d6] works fine.... STR: [1d6] returns "Effect ['STR: 0'] -> [to Baelin Ironshield]"

STR: [d6] returns "Effect ['STR: 4'] -> [to Baelin Ironshield]"

Hum, perhaps this is related to that other core change. I'll run some local tests and see. If it is I'm just going to report it as bug.

I did find the issue and wrote a work around. It seems the stringToDice() has a bit more strict formatting restrictions now and it broke previous behavior. I've correct it and will submit in this week for next Tuesday update.
