Group,
I gave one of my characters a feat that gives them advantages on saving throws vs. magic. I would like to automate this somehow. I am using D&D 5E rules. Any ideas how to do this? Thanks,
Brian

See "Magic Resistance" on this page; 5E Effects for Advanced Automation - Fantasy Grounds Customer Portal - Confluence (atlassian.net) (https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996642031/5E+Effects+for+Advanced+Automation)

Thanks for the quick reply. I do have to apologize, as I am a complete novice on this kind of stuff. I am assuming you meant this portion of the webpage "Other Traits
Magic resistance Include a trait called 'Magic Resistance'. The NPC will then automatically rolled saves vs spells with advantage". The question I have is, where do I put the words "Magic Resistance"? See my attached screenshots. 56089 56090

I haven't tested this, but try this:
56096
Notes: I gave it a target of Self so that it always gets applied to the PC. I gave it a power group of Boons so that it gets its own area/category; I do the same with racial features, class abilities, magic items, consumables, etc
