Question posted on Discord:
How do we handle it when characters wear armor that they are not strong enough for?

From the rulebook:
Armor and Clothing
Armor includes any clothing designed to protect a wearer from harm and might be made from leather, mail, overlapping scales, or heavy plates. Wearing armor affects your Defense and what your character can do. See Clothing for additional information.
• Type: Armor is clothing, light armor, medium armor, or heavy armor. You make Strength challenge rolls with 1 bane to swim while you wear medium armor. You take a -2 penalty to Speed and you make Strength challenge rolls with 2 banes to swim while you wear heavy armor.
• Requirement: If you wear armor and do not meet or exceed its requirements listed in the table, you make all Strength and Agility rolls with 1 bane. In addition, you take a –2 penalty to Speed. The effects of not meeting the armor’s requirements are cumulative with the other effects of wearing armor.
• Defense: Replace your Defense with the listed number while wearing clothing or armor.

Answer
At this stage use ctrl+scroll over the small modifier box on Speed to set it at -2
Players will need to remember to add +1 bane to strength and agility rolls

At some stage we hope to add some support for effects and we may be able to handle the banes in a more automated fashion at that time.

Question posted on Discord:
Where do we record Spell Traditions?

Answer
Apologies - this didnt make it into 2.70 but will be on the Character tab in 2.71

[slayeneq]

When the goblin swings at Jose( a character) , it calculates whether the goblin hit or not.. But when Jose swings at the goblin.. shows the total, but doesn't state whether it hit or missed.5475754758

I've tried targeting and double clicking the dice, I've tried dragging the dice over the icons on the battlemap. Same Result.. NPC can hit the character, but the character can't get a Hit or Miss result for the NPC.

This is for version 2.70 of the store bought version.

Figured it out. I needed to set the opposing / defensive stats. The wiki had the answer.

[damned]

Thanks for the update - good sleuthing!
Weapons that you add via Gear tab should have teh correct stats in them already.
Did this not work for you?

[damned]

Did you maybe carry this character over from the Forge ruleset?
If so I would recommend that you recreate it as there are quite a few things that have changed over the development of the ruleset.

[slayeneq]

That particular stat did not populate for me. I had to add it manually. (As per your post below, I was using the forge and the store version of SOTDL at the same time? ) I had the forge version still enabled. I've since turned it off. Maybe that will make a difference in the future.

I bought the SOTDL version and made a test character to see how everything was populating and to see the format of the NPC's (since I'd had a question about how they were entered) while I was there I thought I'd test the combat stuff and that's when I ran into the non targeting issue.

[damned]

I think we might have to advise people to disable their Forge subscription as there could be conflicts between the two.
Can you confirm whether new weapons being added to the character sheets are getting their stats set?

Is it possible you have also created some library of equipment for your Forge based game?

[slayeneq]

I just created a new character with forge stuff disabled. The weapons when added did populate the defense / opposed trait field. I had only the official modules enabled. (I disabled the prior forge based modules I'd created)

I just pushed another build for you just now.

When creating a new Character adding the Ancestry it doesn't add the starting talents in the talent section of the Sheet. Adding them after the fact from the ancestry works fine. Not sure if this is a bug or expected.

For now you need to drag them on. See this thread for the in-process wiki.

Were the Talents that couldnt be added in the second column?
Can you share an Image?

i can drag talent onto level 3 , cant drag and drop a talent onto the over pages for level 6 and 9 . this occurs with novice and master paths as well, you can drag on to the first page but none of the other pages for the various level advances

[spoofer]

Madman, thanks for reporting. I fixed vehicles. It will get sorted out with the next update.

[damned]

Ok Ive found the issue Hawkwind
It is queued in the next update

[hawkwind]

One other thing, more a question rather than a bug. Is there a reason the spell button on the right hand side is listed under Campaign rather then Character?

[damned]

One other thing, more a question rather than a bug. Is there a reason the spell button on the right hand side is listed under Campaign rather then Character?

Generally the Character section can be closed except at CharGen and Level Up.
The Campaign section is also used by GM and can be rferenced during play/adventure.

Something like that.

[Moon Wizard]

I think @hawkwind is asking, because it's usually under Character in the other rulesets.

JPG

[damned]

Items and Spells are used by GMs and Players and Items is under Campaign.
All the other entries in Character are almost exclusively player data.

Spells was under Character initially but the playest groups and GMs thought Campaign was more appropriate.

[hawkwind]

any plans to have active effects like ATK:1d6 for example?

[damned]

At this stage I have not learnt how to code effects.
You can add 1 boon to your weapon in the Attacks list it will apply to any Attack rolls (and not damage) and will stack with other boons/banes you add to the boons widget.

[spoofer]

One other thing, more a question rather than a bug. Is there a reason the spell button on the right hand side is listed under Campaign rather then Character?

After a heated argument, we decided to roll a die. But then we were mesmerized by the cool new dice, and completely forgot about the result. In the end, it was the will of the New God that spells be under Character.

(This will be changed with the next update.)

[Kenwoolverton]

Hi, I've noticed the 14-15 result on the Madness table is missing. And on the Interesting Thing Table the nested tables aren't linked to the actual sub-tables.
Thanks for creating this, looking forward to actually playing soon.

[damned]

Thanks Kenwoolverton we will get those fixed in the Tuesday update.

[Skellan]

I recently bought this ruleset and I must say you have done a fabulous job. Considering it is so new it is all really tight - great work.
One thing though, I have noticed that the talents box gets cut off. Well, you can scroll the whole sheet but it feels a bit busy. Might it be possible for the spells to get their own tab or something? At higher levels you get quite a few spells and talents.
55098

[damned]

Hi Skellan,

Thanks for the feedback.
That should be fixed in Tuesdays update.

Whether to move it to its own tab or not Im undecided.
Its nice to have everything you use for combat on the one tab.

Im hoping to have afflictions working also for this update.

[Skellan]

Fair enough, thank you

I also noticed that there is an option in the rules to take a second expert path at 7th level but it doesn't like expert paths being dropped in the master slot. Do we need to do this manually?

To be fair, if this is the kind of thing I am finding, you have done a good job.

[damned]

yes that is something that we havent managed to get our heads around.

You should be able to drag an Expert path into the Master slot but then it breaks down...

it is complicated by the fact that the Expert paths have 3 levels and Master paths have 2 levels.
When choosing a second Expert Path you get Level 3 benefits at Level 7 and Level 6 benefits at level 10 but at level 9 you get to choose from either your first or second expert path and I just cannot fathom a way to code that.

[Skellan]

No worries, it isn' hard to just do it manually. I was just wondering if I was missing something. There are probably better things to spend your time on.

[damned]

Hi guys,
After todays update you might get Character Sheet errors on making attacks. Please do one of the following:
open your Armor, unlock it and add a Min STR - use 0 if not listed in the rules
delete your Armor and add it back in from Equipment
Thanks!

[spoofer]

The following posts describe some recent changes to the ruleset. These changes impact NPC records, item (armor) records, and combat mechanics. I will explain each one in detail.

[spoofer]

The contents of the traits tab and the attacks tab for the NPC record have been changed from unformatted text to formatted text. If you have created your own NPC records, then you need to update those manually. The following image shows how. First, unlock the record. Second, copy and paste the text from the upper slot to the lower slot. Third, and formatting such as bold font as you desire. Eventually, the upper slot will be removed. Please make any changes before then.

55127

[spoofer]

Armor now includes a MIN STR requirement. If a character does not meet the minimum requirement, then a penalty is automatically imposed on melee and ranged attack rolls.

This value needs to be set on existing PC character sheets. Either edit the item record, or delete and re-add the armor to the PC. The default value of zero is not displayed (shows as empty).

55128

[spoofer]

Effects have been added to the ruleset as records in the Core Rulebook Player. The following image shows adding an effect to a PC sheet. The effects automatically impose boons / banes on the various attack and challenge rolls. There is a series of boxes to the right of an effect entry. These boxes indicate the number of boons / banes imposed on each type of roll.

55298

Effects can also be added from the Combat Tracker. This is where you apply effects to NPC actors.

55299

[spoofer]

De is used to set Defense to a specific value. AtB is used to grant a bonus to attackers.

55136

[spoofer]

The above examples use afflictions. The effects system can also be used to handle other aspects of the game, such as bonuses from spells or penalties from the environment. You can add your own directly to the actors as needed. Here is what Blessing would look like. Finally, note that the effects have an on switch. This is useful for dealing with bonuses from cover that apply to some attackers but not others.

Ok, I have figured out that when I upload, there is a sequence of mouse clicks that works and another one that messes up the files. If I don't mess them up then they work.

[Skellan]

Is the description for Close Wounds right? It doesn't seem to make sense?

[damned]

No you are right it is incorrect.
The Triggered text is appearing in the Description.
We will get that fixed asap.
There are other affected spells to it looks like.

[spoofer]

Thank you for pointing this out. I was not aware of this specific pattern and did not code for it. As damned said, we will fix asap.

[Skellan]

I think the link to the reference manual may be broken for Dead by Dawn

[damned]

I think the link to the reference manual may be broken for Dead by Dawn

Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

[Skellan]

Sure. When I click on Reference Manual it just opens an empty window. It is probably just a broken link somewhere :)

55587

[spoofer]

Thank you for reporting. I have fixed the reference manual, and a few other things, including NPCs. The new version may take a bit of time. We need to work a few bugs out of the revised NPC attack tab before new versions of stuff with NPC data can be released.

[Skellan]

Great! Thanks for your hard work

[Arcanus888]

Hi, first I want to say thanks for the hard work. For how new the system is it's working great.
I'm unsure if this best place to ask but I noticed there is a space for initiative in the combat tracker but it doesn't allow me to input a number.
SOTDL doesn't really roll for initiative but there is the option to roll a d6 to resolve conflicts.
With my players coming from 5E they're used to acting individually and the option to give them a turn order would be much appreciated.

[spoofer]

Initiative is set as either FAST or SLOW From the main tab of the PC Sheet for PCs, and from the Attack tab inside the Combat Tracker for NPCs. Doing so fills in that space. Turns are completed one actor at a time, individually, as in D&D.

In general, we do not implement options, as we need to need to give priority to the core rules first (which are still yet to be completely implemented). However, I will make sure that Damned is aware of your request. Meanwhile, initiative ties are broken by Agility --- higher Agility goes first.

Ah, thank you. This implementation of SOTDL's initiative is actually pretty good. I'll simply allow players to act in the order they appear in the combat tracker.

[Skellan]

I noticed the effects seem to be duplicating the attack/challenge modifiers. I am not sure if this is a known issue?

Welcome Synmad

Fantasy Grounds effects do not normally adjust the stats that they effect. What happens is that any rolls using or targeting those stats also check the Effects list and will apply those values as well. Please note we found after the last attacks update that Attack Effects were kind of being applied twice, once if Strength/Agility was effected and once more if Attacks were effected. We have thus today removed Attacks from the Effects values - they are still mentioned in the descriptions and all Effects/Afflictions etc that we found so far that effect Attacks also effect Strength/Agility so we think this will address the issue.

Please note that about the same time you posted your message an update went live - so update again to grab that new build. But note that it contains an Error (see message above) that should not effect game play once loaded.

[spoofer]

There is also an empty table : 55968

Thank you for reporting. I reparsed all of the Shadow paths to remove the broken links.

[Skellan]

The damage from NPCs in modules seems to have disappeared. This seems to be affecting all the modules I have looked at, One Perfect Moment, The Slaver's Lash, The Man who Fell to Urth etc. Monsters & Characters from the core rules are ok.

Yikes thanks for reporting Skellan
We are working on that right away.
Which adventures are you running right now?

[Skellan]

No worries. I am running One perfect moment at the moment but I have the pdf too, so no rush for me.

[damned]

Gwydion and I have chained poor old spoofer to his desk and anytime he looks like slacking off one of us pokes him with a very big stick.

This was due to the changes in how we make spell and weapon attacks and challenge rolls being more aligned.

[spoofer]

We are in the middle of a major overhaul of the NPC attack tab. I updated the core books and supplements first. I am working on the adventures, but as there are a lot of them, it is going to take some time. Give me a week to get through everything. If you an urgent request, please post it.

[Skellan]

Stuff like this happening just means you are working to improve the ruleset. No stress, it is cool.

[damned]

We pushed updates to 10 products last night and James has pushed them live.

[Skellan]

Wow, you really do have him chained to a desk ��

Good job ��

[damned]

Watching him work made me tired and I may dozed off. He must have snuck in and posted while I was cat napping.

[spoofer]

I was able to create some tools to automate much of the task. I have updated the NPCs for the adventures.

[damned]

We have queued up updates for 13 more products. They wont hit till sometime tomorrow.

In 'The Apple of Her Eye", in several of the encounters the npcs are missing their attacks - The Inn, The Lady's Claim (changelings), The Lady's Heralds, Yosef.

Ive found and fixed. This probably wont be updated in the live build until Tuesday.

[RadioWiz]

I am getting the following error after the the latest update in Fantasy Grounds:

56867

I get this error when loading an existing campaign, or when I create a new one. I don't have any extensions loaded.

The issue appears to be with the GM's Book, as that module claims it has no contents when loaded.

[damned]

Hey radioWiz - Im really sorry - I can replicate the issue - there is a broken xml record in the data. I am reviewing right now and will update shortly but I dont think there is anyway I can get the updates live at this time of day.

No worries, just wanted to let you know.

Thanks for all you do!

Hi Damon sorry the session got messed up.
As we add support for more automation over time it often requires updates to the data.
We just realised recently that items in Parcels didnt update when we updated the master Items list
What was happening here is that there was no minstrength value in the armour in the parcel scored from the slavers

We will have to dice back into all (30+) adventures and rebuild the parcels to make sure.

If it happens again in the meantime - open the equipped Armour and add a minstrength of 0 if it is missing.

Hi @spoofer, I know the tons of data you and all oher Module Developer manage for every release and I have no word to thank you all for your effort.. I try to do my best to help and without any rush!!! But you are very very fast..
By the way thank you for your suggest to check the errata (unfortunately having everything in Italian I can't think of buying everything again in English and therefore I'm "behind" with the updates.. so sorry for the lost time for this reason..)..

Since I'm translating a lot of materials (so in the next month check a lot of FGU modules), let me know how you prefer me to point out any further "oversights"..

I passed these on to Damned

[cd8dman]

I'm messing with effects. The Defense box doesn't seem to do anything. Am I missing something.

Also, is the "Uses Ammo" affect anything or is it just information on ranged weapons?

I will need to check how the Defense effect works.

I did initially code full support for Ammo and ammo tracking but in playtesting it was voted to remove the feature. I will track down and remove that control.

Ok guys another block of things I noticed..
IMPORTANT: please consider is absolutely possible that I made error to notice you some thing due to I don't know how the content is updated (there are a lot of pubblications that impact on core manuals) so please be patience with me..

By the way is a huge work to do this thing but is a gift for you that made a huge effort/work to bring SotDL on FGU.. so is a great pleasure help you..

[damned]

Hi redba I can confirm the Attacks/Range issue. We will work out what the right fix is.

I love Errata!

Order would be useful (at least it would be consistent) Im really not sure why its not working... Ill fix.

[spoofer]

Thanks Redba. I will fix those mistakes.

I was not aware that the following rule was removed from the book...

Demons, devils, spirits, and undead typically have Corruption scores equal to half their Will scores.

Thanks for catching that.

(The following fixes were done for all genies)

It looks like Immutable Form was removed from the monster. I will remove it.

Core Rulebook GM >> NPC >> Water Genie > Other Traits > I find Water Congeniality but I can't find it (I can't find any errata for this)
I added this to cover the next point.

Core Rulebook GM >> NPC >> Water Genie > Attack Options > Fist > Lack of following text "the genie makes the attack roll with 2 boons if the target is in or in contact with a liquid."
This text if left in the attack is impossible to deal with, and it was just deleted. I added it back in as a trait. Thinking about this one more time, I now realize that I should make a second attack with two extra boons to help GMs quickly roll attacks in this case.

Core Rulebook GM >> NPC >> Earth Genie > Other Traits > I find Object Destruction but I can't find it (I can't find any errata for this)
See next comment.

Core Rulebook GM >> NPC >> Flame Genie > Attack Options > Fist > After "Fist (melee) +10 (6d6" lack of ", or 36 to an object); the genie makes the attack roll with 1 boon if the target is contact with earth, sand, or stone."
This is impossible to parse as is. I changed the 36 against object to a trait.

Oh, I did not know that the ruleset does not allow two attacks of the same name. I will change the name of one of them.

It is done too :bandit:

[cd8dman]

Couple things I have discovered.
- Ranger Level 3 appears to be missing the +1 bonus to Perception.
- When using spells on NPC's, the attack appears to be targetting the persons defense even when it is set to target an attribute. For example, when I used the spell Pain on an NPC, it targeted the persons Defense even though it was set to target Strength.

[damned]

Hi cd8man

Thank you for your reports.
Can you upload the db.xml from your campaign and let me know which character?

Also can you retest the DEFENSE field in an effect as that was fixed in last update.

[spoofer]

Hmm, it looks like there was an update to the the ranger, and the path now gets the bonus at level 3 instead of level 6. I have updated the FG data. Thanks for catching that.
As for the spells bug, I was not able to reproduce that in an new campaign with a new character. Maybe Damned can help you out.

[cd8dman]

Do I have to create a new campaign to get the changes to work?

[cd8dman]

Defense field appears to be working now. I had to recreate the effect and then it worked.

[spoofer]

Do I have to create a new campaign to get the changes to work?

Normally, no. We fix things and submit the changes to Smite Works. Then Smite Works pushes them out to everyone as an update. If there is an update for SotDL, then you will see an update FG option when you first start the program. You will see the changes in game after updating.

[cd8dman]

OK, After we leveled a character, any time a player character attacks the newly leveled character, we get an error.

Script execution errror. String IPFG SDL Attempt to perform arithmetic 'nTarget' a nil

[cd8dman]

When using a finesse weapon, boons applied from effects do not appear to work for Melee weapons.

[damned]

hi cd8man

any chance you can share the db.xml with me?

Ok, sorry for the delay. I recreated most of the characters.

I also discovered a bug with AtB on player effects. It doesn't appear to do anything.

[damned]

Hi cd8man Im not near my home system just now but AtB I think gives people attacking you a boon/bane.

[cd8dman]

Thats what I expected it to do but it wasn't working. It works on NPC's though.

[damned]

Thank you - I will check it out tonight!

[vonBlashyrkh]

Hi, just prepping for a session later and I've noticed when trying to create a new character that when adding any ancestry talents from an ancestry record - all of them link to blank records. Everything else seems to be fine, but every single ancestry talent is absent from the main talent list.

Established characters already populated work fine.57820

Have tried making a new campaign with the ruleset freshly loaded, same issue. Reverted talents & manual, no change. Running the FG updater didn't change anything either

Any idea what may be causing this?

Bane calculations on Spell Attacks also updated and queued for Tuesday.

[damned]

Fixes are live.

[Haxxaw]

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem, but boon/bane rolls don't seem to be working anymore (they worked last week). See attached images from below.

After I add a boon to the character sheet (addboon.jpg), get this on the roll "1d20+3+1g6k1". d20 roll works, 3 was the attribute modifier, d6 looks like it should roll but it's not auto-rolling the dice. Tried with different characters, restarting program, etc. I did add some adventure bundles from the steam sale (shouldn't matter but who knows, it's the only thing I know for sure that I did on my end). Also update FGU prior to every session.

[damned]

Hi Haxxaw

I havent uploaded any changes this week. Can you share your db.xml and let me know that character you are doing this on?

[damned]

Urk. I can replicate the issue. Am at work right now - Ill work out whats happened tonight and try and get a hotfix in for the weekend.

[damned]

It is a major bug am working on it.
Thanks for reporting.

[damned]

psicodelix and I have found the issue. Ill see if SmiteWorks can push a hotfix before the weekend.

[damned]

Patched version is live now.

[cd8dman]

Couple small bugs:

The effect for Frightened (source not in sight) has the wrong banes for Intellect.
Under "Other Attacks", Knock Down is misspelled as Knick Down.

Last note, not sure if this is a bug or not:
Initiatives no longer reset at the end of a turn. This would be a great one to have as an optional in settings because there are times when it is nice to have and times when it is nice to not have them reset.

[spoofer]

Thanks for reporting. The spelling mistake has been fixed and and queued up for patching.

As for frightened, I am not sure what you are referring to. He is the text in the book.


Frightened
A frightened creature makes attack rolls and challenge
rolls with 1 bane or 3 banes when it can see the source of
the frightened affliction.

As for initiative, I will defer to Damned.

[spoofer]

Just to confirm, the number of banes should be the same---three---for all four stats. Is that not what you see?

[damned]

I changed the option for INIT to not reset automatically to make it easier on the GM primarily.
Players generally only have to deal with a single Actor but the GM may have many more to manage.

[cd8dman]

There are two prebuilt effects for frightened. One where you can see the source, and one where you can't. If you can see the source, you have 3 banes. If you can't, you only have 1 bane.

The prebuilt effect for (can't see source) should only have 1 bane but it has 3 banes for intellect.

[amanwing]

Enchanted item tables. Are these not included or am did I miss these?

[amanwing]

I also found another thing that is supposed to work I guess. You can't drag the attack dice roll to the hotkey bar.

[damned]

All rolls must be done from the sheet.

[Haxxaw]

Tiny errors I've seen in the "Quintet" module. Nothing game breaking.

Creature Revenant

Under descriptor says "id-00005",

Under Special Attacks - "Eyes of the Underworld - The id-00005 uses an action to make a Will attack roll against the Will of one target creature within short range that can see it. On a success, the target becomes frightened for 1 minute. On a failure, the target becomes immune to that id-00005's Eyes of the Underworld until it completes a rest."

Under Other Traits -
Surprising Return
When a id-00005 would become incapacitated, roll a d6. On a 6, the id-00005 appears dead; 1 round later, it heals 2d6 damage and stands up.

One Foot Grave
"A id-00005 heals only half the normal amount of damage from magic and potions."

Creature "Butcher" similar issue only in the traits, except with "id-00008"

Creature "Devikin", similar issue in Defensive, Vulnerability, and Other Traits "id-00011"

Creature "Gargoyle", similar issue in Defensive, Vulnerability, and Other Traits "id-00006"

Can you revert those two modules?
Updates were pushed for them both.

Reverted, no changes though. Madness still empty. Verlaine's House still blank. First log is when starting the campaign. Second log is after closing out the Madness and Terror mods and then reopening them.

[damned]

Please update and test again ProfDogg

Eureka! Madness is back and no more errors reporting but Verlain's House maps in Terror are still blank.

Not a bug per se, but since the update to various windows in Core a week or two ago, the party sheet inventory no longer shows the player inventories or has the function to auto transfer assigned loot and share coins to the player characters

[damned]

This fix should have gone live yesterday I think...

[vonBlashyrkh]

I saw there'd been something addressed, but nope, still nothing, getting this error when I first open the Inventory section of the party sheet, and the player sections are still absent. There are no extensions activated

[ERROR] Script execution error: [string "CoreRPG: ps/scripts/ps_inv.lua"]:8: attempt to call field 'populate' (a nil value)

(Space added by me between CoreRPG: and ps/ to prevent emoji)

[damned]

Thanks for rreporting. Can you confirm your build number? Im on 3.53.

[vonBlashyrkh]

Hmm, I am on 3.52, ran the updater, but I don't get a new version

[damned]

It looks like it is not live - Ill see if I can get SmiteWorks to push it...

[vonBlashyrkh]

All sorted now, thanks Damned :)

[damned]

Thanks for confirming.

Hello. I've had a issue where when one of the PCs targets another PC, when they make an attack roll they get a script error. The error only shows up on their screen as the PC, not mine as the GM. This has happened a few times so I captured the db file as well as a screenshot of the script error, however I can't seem to upload any images or files. I'm able to choose an image to upload but there's no option to upload it. How do i upload the db.xml file as well? Someone on the FGU discord channel said PvP in this manner should be viable. Just wanted to see if this could be rectified as I want to end my campaign with the party in a big pvp battle.

Edit: I was able to add attachments in the edit post after posting section.

[damned]

Thanks for the report and the db. Can you also tell me what attacks you have gotten errors with.

[VinnySpermatozza]

It was both melee and ranged attacks.

Please be specific. I cannot replicate.

I'll run another test this week. Are there any logs the players can download from their side?

[Haerilis]

I am getting "windowclass: ct_targets - DEPRECATED - 2022-08-16 - Contact ruleset/extension/forge author" whenever i click on the targeting button on the tracker. I have got no extensions installed. Any idea how to fix it ?

[damned]

Hi Haerilis it wont be something you can fix - I will need to work out the new changes and implement.

Ok thanks!

[damned]

I have submitted a patch. Should be available tomorrow.

[Haerilis]

Thanks for the report and the db. Can you also tell me what attacks you have gotten errors with.
Just clicking on the aim button on the tracker was triggering that message, not clicking on attacks.

My response that you are quoting is from 5 days before your report - eg it wasnt in response to you.
The error you reported is fixed if you the FGU updater.

[damned]

It looks like James has already published my update - run the updater and it should be fixed.

[DJR77]

Just a few small things scattered throughout that I've noticed over time.
- Natural Born Scoundrel's NBS Rogue path has attribute gains at level 2 and 8, and shouldn't.
- Freeport Companion Player's "Undine Personality" table is missing 13-15, I believe.
- The Core Rulebook Player's Spear item (basic melee weapons) should not have ranged property, also should not say Requires Strength 11+ (both are for the military spear which is entirely missing).
- Monstrous Page Pack 6: The Remainder's "Weird Miscellaneous Traits" table has a partial unnumbered entry at the top.

[damned]

Welcome DJR77

Thanks for the post - we will get those fixed up!

[andywo12]

Hi there are a number of effects that seem not to be working properly e.g instead of applying a bane to your attack they apply a boon instead.

Sorry I have not checked all of the effects but I will use fatigue as an example.

As you will see in the attached images it is applying a boon to the attack which should be a bane

Sorry for the extra work

hello, I found some bugs:

Core Rulebook GM:
images:

Gauntlet Structure -> missing image
Web Structure -> missing image
Well Structure -> missing image

Core Rulebook Player:
reference manual:

Chapter 2/Afflictions -> "Poisoned" is in paragraph format instead of title
Chapter 6: Equpment -> typo "Equipment"
Chapter 10: Bestiary/Animated Corpose -> typo "Animated Corpse"

ruleset:

when rolling a 6 while dying (fate roll) nothing changes. (it should go back to disabled)
The Cumbersome trait of a weapon adds a bane which adds the number on the d6. (the bane should subtract the d6 number to the roll)

[RadioWiz]

Not a bug per se, I posted in discord about being able to assign tokens for the new 2.5D/3D view in Fantasy Grounds. Moon Wizard replied and mentioned that it should be available in the CoreRPG layer of the ruleset, but it would need to be enabled by the DLC developer. Is this something that would be possible?

Thank you for the request. It wasnt a feature that any of us were overly excited by. Ill discuss and consider.

[DJR77]

A few more we noticed over several more Saturdays.
- Tombs of Desolation Player's "Salamander" ancestry has immune to fatigue, believe that it shouldn't.
- Freeport Companion Player's "Undine" ancestry has shadowsight in description instead of having the shadowsight talent.
- Expert Paths of Shadow>Bloodletter path "Story Development" table has the second entry twice.

My group has also ran into the cumbersome banes counting toward the totals one last session, and just to second RadioWiz we also would be interested in testing out the new view mode. If it's not a huge hassle anyway, as ultimately we may only try it to find out we have no use for it. Also since I didn't in my earlier post I want to just give huge thanks for this ruleset and content, it has been immensely valuable to my small group and overall learning this game.

[vonBlashyrkh]

Me and my group are now also experiencing the result of bane dice being added to the result instead of subtracted. The odd thing is it doesn't happen all the time, but I can't figure out how or why.

We looked at the view mode and went huh, not sure of the point of it and went back to our old style top down maps.

[damned]

I cant seem to lock down exactly where the bug is either!
I have "fixed" it several times but Im still missing something...
If you can recreate it please share your campaign and the steps to recreate it - thanks!
