5E - Next Level extension

I have finally found time to fix an extension I wrote originally for FGC and ported over to FGU.

The extension adds a new field called "Next Level", when the "Total Level" changes the below code will automatically update the "Next Level" and calculate the remaining XP to reach that level. The code was originally added to "manager_char.lua" in the "addClassRef()" function, looking at the current "manager_char.lua" file it has considerably less code than before. I have trying to find the correct script to put the code in, but I've not had any success.

Here is the manager_chr.lua file from when it was working as intended: 53688

if nTotalLevel == 16 then nNewNextLevel = 225000; end
if nTotalLevel == 17 then nNewNextLevel = 265000; end
if nTotalLevel == 18 then nNewNextLevel = 305000; end
if nTotalLevel == 19 then nNewNextLevel = 335000; end

if nTotalLevel >= 20 then nNewNextLevel = 335000; end
end

Debug.console("Next Level: ", nNewNextLevel);
DB.setValue(nodeChar, "expneeded", "number", nNewNextLevel);
