Hello,
I've been using Fate Core for my campaign, and I was playing around with the party sheet, trying to see if I could figure out how it works (and I did). But what I discovered when I tried to clean up my mess is that there appears to be no way to subtract coins from players under the Fate Core ruleset. The best that I can figure is that this is because the Fate Core character sheets do not have a currency section of any kind, and it doesn't get pushed under Notes or Gear or anything like that, so individual currency amounts do not actually seem to be exposed to the user anywhere in an editable fashion like they are in other rulesets. I'm aware that the number under Party Coins is information only, and is not supposed to be editable, so that's out. I also discovered that many people were saying that if you simply try to give the players negative currency, it subtracts from the party total. However, this appeared to do nothing in my case.
I did manage to lower the amounts, but only by shutting down the server, editing db.xml, and then restarting it, which as you can imagine, is not a particularly sustainable solution. Is there some way to lower the individual currency under Fate Core that I'm simply missing, or have I stumbled upon an oversight in the UI/ruleset? Either way, I would appreciate any assistance.
I don't have any extensions going, and I only have the Wood theme running (which does not seem to affect the character sheets in any way).
Thank you in advance.
