I think I've found a bug. With psionic powers, the effective level doesn't change as you invest points into it. It remains at the functional 1 point level regardless of points invested, or if points are reduced to 0 to test defaults. This applies to both powers in the Abilities tab and their techniques.

The ruleset doesn't do any special handling of psionic powers, they should be treated as any other skill. If it is not calculating properly, then the most likely cause is the skill/ability details are not properly configured. Click the little brown All-Seeing-Eye icon next to the skill level to check everything is correct.

Is it not supposed to be in the Powers section? When I put the power in there it doesn't calculate correctly, is what I mean. I figured psionic powers would function as a power rather than a skill.

I also don't know where to find this All-Seeing-Eye icon, if you could direct me to it.

Powers is a section of the character sheet where you can track powers, but no calculation is performed on the level and points spent....At this point...This will be added in future. If you need a calculated level then you can use the skills tab as powers, like spells, are essentially skills.

That makes a lot more sense, thank you for clarifying.

In the chat window, I type "/importchar" and it opens a file browser to select the file. Then I get a window. The line says "[ERROR] import: An error occurred while parsing EntityName. Line 350 position 36." I was able to import a character from GCA in the past but something seems to not line up. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

EDİT: I have just figured out I replied a super old comment :D I am sorry. But, if any of you need this information, it's here for you.
Hello there.
I am not sure but I believe I have encountered this problem before. As far as I know, there is a difference between how FGU and GCS handle "special characters." When there are & or any other special characters in the character sheet, this problem occurs. You can manually search for & in GCS, if you find it you may change it to something like this "&amp" without quotes or anything you like ("and" can work too). If this doesn't work, you can open the file with a text editor (notepad can do this, I believe) and CTRL+F, and "find and change" the symbol &. You can change it "and" or anything you want.

At least, this is the solution for my GCS importing problems. I believe it can work for GCA too.

I am sorry for my bad English, I hope I could explain my thoughts.

NOTE: "EntityName. Line 350 position 36" is the coordinates of the broken character in the XML file. "Line 350" means row 350, "position 36" means 36th character of that row. But, there may be more after this one too. So, CTRL+F would be better.
