That's weird, it's working for me. If crit table III works for the other classes, then maybe there is something wrong with the halfling character sheet. Make sure the crit table is set properly in the Weapons Meta dialog box and the player has the core rules module open.Quote:

Hmm, yeah, I can't duplicate it either now though I could during our last game. Must be he doesn't have the rules loaded. Thanks for looking at it.Quote:

I have a question on custom classes. I am adding a bunch of cleric subclasses for my games (similar on the DCC Annual). I noticed in the conversion of the DCC Annual, the canticles have extra effects, etc., for each. In the implementation of my own, how can I add effects to an ability in the class features so that they don't need to be added manually upon getting those new features? (Can this only be done via XML currently?)
Hi seansps,
The spell actions are defined in a data file. I could share the DataSpell file with you if you want to add more of your own as an extension. The 5E ruleset is able to parse actions from the text, but the DCC rulebook is much more unstructured in its spell formatting. Maybe this is something I can work on.
Hi! Yes, I figured it was probably much harder to do w/ DCC because of that-- but that's ok! That would be awesome if you could share the DataSpell file with me. As a coder myself I should be able to figure out how to add the XML needed to get the coding for my custom canticles and such. Is this just an XML blob I can add to the mod's db xml file?Quote:

Thanks! That would be perfect. I've already finished the mod file (for my 12 new cleric "classes") so doing the extension with the canticle coding is the last missing piece :)Quote:

If you want spell actions to auto-populate when a non-core spell is dropped to the char sheet, add them to the LUA file. There are instructions at the top of the file. Do not replace anything in the file (unless you want to change something from the core rules) - just add your own to what's already there.
Post here if you have any issues.
Thanks again! This will help a bunch. It seems like it'll be pretty easy for me to follow these examples and add all my custom stuff. I am noticing some errors though with the provided file:Quote:

- May be other errors after that, but haven't looked further yet
I didn’t really test it, but I will check it out.
Fixed. Try re-downloading from the same link. It should work now.
Perfect, thanks so much! It worked! And I added the effects for my first custom canticle... dozens more to go, haha.Quote:

{ type = "effect", sName = "Cadence of Defense; AC: 1", sTargeting = "self", sDuration = "1d4+CL" },
Thanks for reporting the duration issue. I submitted a hotfix for this.
Awesome, thank you!!Quote:

Are you on Test?
A Test version of the DCC ruleset was inadvertently pushed by someone else internally to Live trying to do a patch fix. However, any fixes to the ruleset are on hold until the beta completes, since we can only do builds for what is currently in source control, not per file updates.
I've rolled back the build to the original Live version from 9/29.

JPG
That was my guess. :) Thanks for the rollback.Quote:

Hi everyone,
First time reporting/asking for help. Here it goes:
I created some spells for DCC, complete with tables, and when dropped in the character sheet allows me to roll checks, effects, and damage. I assumed that since it works in standard FG it would work in FGU, so I copied the module I created in standard FG into my FGU module folder.
However, when I drop a homebrew spell on a character sheet it does not allow me to roll for checks, effects, or damage. I did something wrong but can't quite put a finger on it. If anyone could help it would greatly appreciated.
Hope this post finds everyone happy and healthy. Cheers!
PJ

Thanks leozelig! This works for me!Quote:

1. Create the spell in the Spells category under a folder for your Mod
2. Add the spell to a test character
3. Add all your actions to the spell on the character's copy of if it (under their actions tab)
4. Drag the spell from your character to your Spells list
5. This should create a copy (w/ the effects still linked to it) -- delete the old one
6. Confirm that the new one has all your effects by dragging it onto the Actions tab of a new character, it should add the spell with the custom actions and effects!
Alternatively, if you are creating a class w/ custom effects for their abilities, you must do so by creating an extension that has a modified data_spell.lua file. I did this for my Fantasy Grounds module that adds cleric options for all the other gods. You can check that out at: https://www.realm15.com/dcc
1. Download the Fantasy Grounds module and extract the zip
2. Change the extension on the .ext file to .zip and extract it
3. Open the data_spell.lua file and add all your spell's custom effects here to the very bottom (don't remove any of the others) -- you can use the originals and the ones I created as examples
4. Repackage all the files from the .ext file as a .zip, change the extension back to .ext
5. Bring the .ext file to your Fantasy Grounds "extension" folder
6. Load your campaign, but first, ensure the Extension is loaded
7. In your campaign, ensure your module w/ your custom spells is also loaded, and then drag the spell to a character, it should have the effects you coded to in the extension
8. If you want to change the name of the extension to match your module feel free to remove the name I gave it and rename it, in the extension.xml file of the .ext file

Select the action you want to add - Add Check is a good place to start. You should now be able to roll your spell check. Next add the effects. You will need to click the magnifying glass button in the far right column of each effect action to enter the description, duration, and targeting details.
It’s a little bit of work, but I’m working on automating some of this for the next update. It’s a little more complicated than 5E, which follows a very structured format for the wording of everything.
Let me know if you still have questions!
I was too slow! More help is not a bad thing ;)
Hehe :D indeed- I forgot to mention *how* to add the custom effects on the character's copy of the spell, so your response is still relevant! Let us know if you're still struggling, PJ.Quote:

Woo! Glad to see another module go up on the store. I do not remember if I posted this already but I may have found a bug:
If you have the setting where initiative is rolled automatically when an npc is added to the combat tracker it does not take the d16 initiative into account. This can be just dropping them on the CT or adding them through an encounter. If you roll their initiative manually or through the "roll npc initiative" menu it does work properly.
Thanks Ramza! I will put that on my list for the next update.Quote:

So if an Effect Duration is set for 1 or 2 rounds it expires at the end of 1 round; if duration is set for 3 or 4 rounds it expires at the end of 2 rounds. I tested this on a clean load with no extensions.
It does the double count down on spell effects too, so it seems universal. I tried both friendly buff spells on allies and debuffs on enemies.
That is definitely a bug. I fixed it a few weeks ago, but all ruleset updates are on hold for the CoreRPG changes currently in beta. Sorry about the trouble - I think the Test channel is running the bug fix. If not, then it will just have to wait until I get the go-ahead to update the ruleset.
While we're on the topic, I have a few other updates in the works:
* Duration added to "onHover" display for mini actions - useful for judges running NPCs with spells that have lots of effects.
* Slash command /funnel adds contents of pushcart.
* Slash command /funnel updates max ammo in weapons list.
* 'Unable to find table' error message now includes table name.
* Improved parsing of NPC special properties for resistance, immunity, and vulnerability.
Are you still running a regular game, Tab? I have some extra time these days, wouldn't mind playing some DCC if you have space.
I'm running a regular game on Wednesday nights, starting 7:30 pm EST; currently have 4-5 players. You're welcome to join. I'm usually running published adventures with few modifications. Currently we are about half way through The Emerald Enchanter. The party is roughly 2nd-3rd level. My players each have a stable of characters so they don't always run the same characters and have been running two characters at a time most of the time. If we go to 6 players I'll likely drop it down to one character per player with maybe a 0-level henchman. Legacy characters are welcome (while reserving the right to deny specific magic items).
Awesome! I will message you on Discord, and maybe you can make some space for me :D
I'm making good progress on parsing actions from custom spells. For example, when you drop a custom spell to the Actions tab on your char sheet, the ruleset will recognize the phrase 'DC 15 Reflex save' and add the appropriate save action for that. I've finished saves, damage, healing, and some effects (DMG, DMGO, and conditions). There might be some imperfections or duplications, but it will be better than nothing. Currently, only the core rules spells automatically add actions, and those are coded into the ruleset. The core rules are a good starting point for formatting guidelines, but I plan to post a thread with most of the trigger phrases in case that's not working for you.
Thinking about revisiting an automatic increase in disapproval range. In the past, my concern has been that the extra automation would be confusing because you don't really see it happening, but a chat message might help with that...
