Genesys (FFG RPG) work in progress

I dunno if it is because I am in the test channel. But dice don't work. At all. Neither in a new campaign or an old one. Will try this new version and see if it helps.

Haven't had that much time to test the combat tracker in depth yet, but I can see what you're going for now. I think It is a much better way of doing things! One suggestion I got from a player was that there was (perhaps on entries on the combat tracker) and option to add Boost or Setback dice to next rolls. For myself I would prefer if the initiative options from the menu, was turned into buttons placed at the bottom of the combat tracker, so you didn't have to enter a menu to roll the initiatives. Just seems more efficient to me.

Keep up the excellent work!

Now, your issue with the token, can you give me a step by step? I wil test it

When I create a minion group I do all those things. What I am saying is there away for FG to check and see how many minions are in the group then when you drag the NPC on to the encounter it will add as many tokens that you have minions. That way placement on the map would make more sense. I mainly would want to do this so you could have an encounter all prepared and ready to go an not have to add the tokens after the fact.
BTW I like the look of the new layout for NPCs. You probably know this but the stats for a weapons damage and the crit rating don't line up with the column they are in when you are looking at the combat tab.

Token instructions
I just dragged 1 of the tokens from the encounter I made on to the board, just like you would if you were prepping a dnd encounter. Once it has been placed there is a check mark over the token. If you try it and you happened to be at the right size of the token with out doing anything, try adjusting the size after you placed it on the map and see if it keeps the same size or reverts back to the default size.

Unfortunatelly as far as i know, there is no easy way to make what you ask.
A minion is supposed to represent a group of npcs, and they act as one, they are not meant to be several separate tokens, and FG handles tokens as separate npcs :(


I promisse i will keep this in mind, maybe for the future? Altough what you ask, I feel like it could lead to confusion with players, as they will think they have different targets, but anyway, i will keep this open...

Did you drag the encounter token from the encounter window, into the combat tracker or the map?

Tokens should go from npc or encounter to combat tracker..... and from the combat tracker to the map

If you already did that, i apologize, i will test this later
I will try this later, i w

I have fixed the issue and will upload a new version below.
If the issue persists, it will mean that it was a talent added in the previous version.
To fix: delete the talent from the pc/npc sheet, and add again...
This should only happen with talents added prior to the version in my next topic

I tried the TEST version. I wouldnt advise you use it for playing though, as it is not a "production" version.
But i did fix the error messages, so for now the ruleset is working in regular and test versions of FGU

I had to disable dragging dice for the time being, players need to double click dice to move them around.
FGU is doing too many changes and breaking this all the time, i will reimplement dice dragging once FGU is more stable code.

NEW RELEASE

RELEASE NOTES:

- Fixes some issues of error messages related to dice rolling in FG Unity
- Fixed issue with incorrect data type in Talent "ranks" field. (If you still have issues opening a talent on a pc or npc sheet, try removing it and readding it. It should fix and it only happens if you added the talent on a previous version of the ruleset)


- Temporarily disabled dice dragging:
You have to double click dice to move them from the sheet to dicebox, and click the dicebox button to roll dice.
When FG Unity gets stable enough with dice rolling code, I will re-enable dice dragging.


Ruleset download:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...R-?usp=sharing

EDIT:

So I didn't update the thread before posting. My bad. Now the issue is that I cannot drag and drop any of the dice. Which is really what I like to do. However no more errors are being reported and results are being displayed again.


And I nealy died of happiness when I saw the NPC sheets. Gotta stop making such awesome stuff man. That is dangerous to my health!!! *grins*


EDIT 2: I really need to read more. Didn't notice you'd already mentioned the dragging. Kinda bummed that that Unity thing is holding Classic back, but that is at least understandable.

if I just take a die and toss it into the chat window. And no results are shown.

I didnt get that error...
Make sure you dropped the new version of the ruleset in the following folder:

..\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\channels\Test

And not:

..\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds\rulesets

Because you are using Test


Let me know if you still have the issue, because the only dice you should be able do drop on chat are "normal" dice



Oh and thanks so much, i think you will love what i have in mind for our sheets in the future
Imagine something very slick... like the ones in dnd5 :)

And... i already have plans to automate a few things, like adding effects from weapon properties, etca :)

Read my edited post.

I posted the original thing, without seeing the update. It works fine!

Really like your initiative tracker over the old one. Well done.

I just found an error in FGU, when deleting tokens from the combat tracker.... i will fix later

Ok just to make sure we are both on the same page, there is Encounter directory. In this directory its main function is to place tokens on the map ahead of time so when the PCs come across them all the GM has to do is bring up the encounter he wants to run and click the down arrow. This shows the GM where his previously place enemies are for the encounter and adds them to the combat tracker.
When you creating an encounter in this way you drag an NPC to the encounter window. It will default to having only 1 enemy of that type but as you add more additional tokens appear below. The way it works in dnd and pathfider is you grab those tokens and place them. That was what I was referring to when I dragged the tokens from the encounter to the map.
I haven't tried dragging stright from the character sheet or combat tracker but typically that's not what you do when prepping encounters.

ahhhhh
I see now what you mean, and i am so sorry i didnt understand before.

It seems to be working now, I am not sure if it was the latest fix i did, can you try again?

I just tried the following:

I created an encounter, like the image i have attached

Attachment 37769

Then I opened a map, and dragged each token to the map
As I drag them, each icon in the encounter becomes a checkmark, showing me i have added to the map

After that, clicking the down arrow added all tokens to the combat tracker, and it seems to be working ok, identifying each token on the map to the corresponding one in the tracker

Right but remember the issue was the size of the token not staying at the scale I set. Everything else regarding that works fine.

ok great, tomorrow i will investigate

Also my next step is adding vehicles. the combat tracker will work nice now with it, and i dont have to worry on coding too much
After that, i will add more fields to the tracker... and from there we clean up the visuals, and it is 1.0

I wont stop there though, i think i can add a lot of nice stuff in it

I don't know if you saw my earlier post but the stats of a weapon don't line up with the column in the combat tab.

thanks! i will work on that

I will probably have a new version sunday only, but i am noting all this issues to work on and fix

Hopefuly with vehicles done

So am I good to start working on adding the NPC Library?

-Some things of Note-

• Also while you are fixing the column placement issue you might think about adding a weapon qualities column, so you don't have to click into the weapon every time to look.
• One other thing I was going to add page numbers for skill descriptions, but when I created a new skill I got this error:
  Runtime Error: desktop: Unable to create window with invalid class (referenceskill : skill.id-00001)
  Script Error: [string "campaign/scripts/campaign_button_new.lua"]:28: attempt to index local 'w' (a nil value)
• As far as some minor changes you could do something similar to what you did with weapons and have the ranked box for talents only show after answering yes to wheather it is ranked or not. You then could change 1 to the default rank since you can't have a ranked talent and have 0 ranks :). Also it would be beneficial to show the ranks next to the name when looking at the list of talents.
• Lastly a place for spells on NPCs and possibly PCs. I know you said you were thinking about adding a spells database. It would make sense to be able to drag and drop pre-made spells on to NPC's Character sheets.

I wanted to get these all out before I forget them. I know you have a lot of things to do already, I am sure. You probably had plans to do some of these things already, in which case just ignore me. :)

I need to fix that skills window. I will work on that.
Also, for npcs, i am thinking maybe i need to finish a racial traits database? Let me double check this, i will let you know

I will also work on that weapon display, actually i will soon remake that too

In the next days i will do it

I have fixed the issue with the Spells record window, but I will work on the others before i upload a new version.

I had a great idea on how to add spells to the character sheet, and it will work not only for spells, but also for Aether powers (Crucible) or any other future power like skills, i hope

So i will see if i can finish these, and you will be able to properly create the skills and npcs

Sounds exciting I am looking forward to the next update.

I dont want to leave you guys waiting too long with no news so, this is just a quick update.

I am still preparing the changes in the "powers/spells" sheet for the characters, and i think it will be really awsome (if i manage heh)... but i will probably only have time to finish this on saturday or sunday

Ran in to a couple of interesting bugs. FGC on live:

Despite having formatting on NPC / Charactersheet in the notes tab/section (CTRL+1 to 6), you cannot drag and drop a link to an image (or any link I suppose). (forgot to get the error message. Amateurish of me). Likewise, if you're on the notes tab in on NPC's you cannot edit the text in the top of the sheet (names etc). On charactersheets that only happens to the last line of the of the same box. (I hope that makes sense). Player confirms that this issue only exists in the notes tab.

I have found the issue, but I wanted to get some input from you before i do the change:

- The issue is mainly because the two notes fields are simple text in the character/npc sheets, and i need to change them to "formatted text", which allows formatting and linking images etca
- I was thinking of removing the separation of "Motivations" and "Notes", and maybe just keep one big notes field. People could still input their motivations, and any other background info, and other notes, but formatting with headers etca, and they customize as they want. What do you think? Should i do this, or do you like the two separate notes?

- On the matter of changing the field, existing records will cause an error message when opening the sheet. To fix that I have to decide if I create a script when loading the campaign, to convert existing records created by the current ruleset version you guys have, or ignore and start from scratch.

So, if we go with the option of having one big field instead of two notes fields, will it be a big problem to lose current notes? I can write the script if that is the case....

NEW RELEASE

Attention! - In this release I am testing a change in the character Note's tab.
I have changed it to allow formatted text and dragging images etca, but the old fields are not acessible.
If you really need to access the old notes you input into your char, let me know and I will create a way to reimport.
If you dont mind though, please rewrite your notes from scratch in your current chars. I apologize for this trouble.


Release Notes - July 25 2020

Bug Fixes:

- Fixed issue with not being able to drag images and other links into the character notes
- Fixed issues in character and npc notes tab, where the top fields (like name) were not editable
- Combat Tab: fixed alignment of items header, added Properties back to each weapon on the list
- FGU: Fixed issues with adding talents and other abilities to character and npc sheets
- Error message when clicking link icon on Skill list: this is not really an error, but lacking a feature which I have added now: Create a record for the skills in the database, and the link will work.


Improvements and new features:

- New tab in character and npcs: "Actions"
This is just the first version and does not have a lot of features but it will improve with time.
The Actions tab is a very flexible part of the character sheet, allowing players and npcs to have custom spells, powers and other skill checks

My idea is to create a "future proof" character sheet. This tab will allow adding any powers specific to current and future settings, for example Spells (for magic enabled settings), Aether (legends of the crucible) and even Star Wars specific powers (for now, since i did not create a new SW ruleset yet)

For now you can create new Powers, and add Actions. Later I will add more fields to powers, allowing the addition of Effects, Combat Damage rolls, Extra fields to keep track of experience points, etca.


Quick Tutorial on how to use the tab:

1) Go to your character or npc sheet, and open the "Actions" tab
2) For now it will be empty. At the bottom of the sheet, click the red "Edit List" button
3) Click the blue "Add Power" button

4) You will notice a new record.
4a) Give this power a name, for example "Fireball"
4b) On the other field you need to give this power a group, for example, type "Spells"
4c) Right Click this new power record, and on the radial menu, select "Add Action", and then "Add skill roll"
4d) This will add a line to the power, were you will input a skill roll
4e) On the first field, type the exact name of the skill you want to roll, for example "Arcane"
4f) Optionally, on the next field add a default difficulty. (this will be used in your roll to automatically add Difficulty dice to the roll)
4g) On the next field, change for the Range this skill will be used

5) Repeat the process above to create new powers. If any power you create are in a different group, groups will automatically be created and powers sorted under them
6) When you are finished, click again the red button at the bottom of the sheet, to leave edit mode
7) You will notice at the bottom left a button "Display: Group"
7a) You can change this to:
- Summary: this will hide each power's "Group" field and show a "Summary" field, which you can use to add descriptions to each power
- You can also change to "Actions". This will hide the "Groups" and "Summary" fields and just show the power and the roll skill icon

Notice also each power has an icon to the right (a small spyglass). You can use this to expand/collapse each power.
For now, each power can at the most have one line, the Action line, but in the future we will be able to customize powers further


- Genesys Dice and Dice Symbols added to formatted fields
This is an old item I was working on.
I am slowly adding back this feature, for now we have it available in the Notes fields in character and npc sheets, and also in the "Summary" field in the powers sheet

While typing text into those fields, you can type some special text, and the ruleset will replace that with special icons representing genesys dice and dice symbols

Dice Symbols:
(S) - Success
(!) - Triumph
(F) - Failure
(T) - Threat
(A) - Advantage
(D) - Despair

Dice
[A] - ability die
[D] - difficulty die
[P] - proficiency die
[C] - challenge
[B] - boost
[S] - setback


For example, in the notes field, if you type this:

Quote:

---

Add another [D] to your roll if target is hidden under cover
Can only crit on (!)

---

Closing the window and opening again, the ruleset will now display the special icons

Attention: for the character sheet it seems we have an issue, and only after the campaign is closed and opened again, will it update with icons.
I will fix this later


The new version of the ruleset can be downloaded here:

Hey Sevrick i fixed a few things from the list above

You can now add npcs and skills to your files!
For now, i did not create a spells or power database, since they will be specific usually to different npcs, so you will have to create them if you need specific spells.
I will see if i can create a database later

I corrected the issue in the combat tab for now, i want to merge combat and the new actions tab later in the future

Please let me know what you think and your feedback, thanks a lot!

Awesome. I am on it. I do think the symbols need some work though they look the size is off. Also when bold they look completely different. I assume it isn't a representation of the final product?:)
Also I noticed that bolded text shrinks and looks weird.

Ah yeah, it is because each style is a different font, i will have to improve my skill on font editing
I will check that and try to make them clearer :)

Also I have been adding species/races in my own modules. What is your plan for the races section? You technically can do it all text, but you could add a description box at the top, have characteristic boxes, starting wound/strain thresholds, starting xp, starting skills. Those are pretty much things that all species have in common. The abilities seem to work as is. If you did decide to add those boxes, it would be laying the ground work for drag and drop race features.
Just something to think about. As if you didn't have enough things to add. :)

EXACTLY!

What i plan for species/races is something like this:

We will have the base characteristics, starting xp...
I also want to add special abilities and other stuff there

I want it to work like dnd5... you select a species, it will add all that stuff to your character

ALSO...

I plan on creating a "settings" database
Imagine you have records for each setting.. lets say, terrinoth
In the setting we will have the list of skills.

so, when i create my chat, i will select the setting, and it will apply the skills to my char there


I want to add this to other parts of the ruleset later on

Believe it or not.. it is not all that difficult to do this!

I want to make it as soon as i finish vehicles

Just wanted let you know you are doing an awesome job and am looking forward to another release. I will release all the libraries at once when I am done with them.

Thanks a lot man....

And I really appreciate all your feedback, and your fantastic libraries

Not sure if you know or not but when creating a character in FGU, the character sheet is completely blank with no box or tabs except the name and a few other fields. I know Unity is secondary just thought I would mention it since it is a really big issue for Unity.

I also had an idea for the skill section. You could have a button that cycles the skills and the way they are arranged, like how you did for the Actions tab. For example maybe have a button that says "All" which shows all the skills in alphabetical order. "Grouped" Shows the skills separated into General, social, combat, and Knowledge. "Ranked/Group Skilled" Shows only skills that the npc has ranks or group skills as in the case of minions. Just some ideas I had floating around.

Edit: I also have been adding abilities to the actions tab and am seeing the possibilities. Like adding Skill vs Skill to the radial menu. I know it like dnd they have a target where it lets FG know where you are targeting your spell/ability. It could then get the ranks of the target and upgrade the current spell. It seems rather complicated though. As I am adding more and more NPCs I am noticing a lot of Skill vs Skill abilities in there stat block.
