Release v3.0.4

Hello all. I like this new update. The new look is fab. We played just last night (Pathfinder ruleset) with it and found a few oddities.

We saw that some of the weapons and spells in the Actions tab, had to be rewritten. Some of these were ones we had created, especially for specific classes such as the monk or witch. These are no problem or minor issues.

The main concern we have is with players not being able to cast spells on other players. That is, one PC targeted another, confirmed by map arrows and the combat tracker, but when the healing spell was cast it did not automatically heal the targeted PC. We tried damage spells, healing spells, buff spells and even attacks. Nothing affected the targeted PCs. I had to manually adjust the results for each of these actions.

Are we missing a new setting that allows this or is there a different method of "targeting friendlies" now?

Thanks.

Just tried in my test campaign based on my last PFRPG campaign, and targeted healing was working for me. I tried targeting from map, as well as targeting via targeting button in CT.

Can you provide a ZIP file with your campaign to [email protected], and walk me through the steps to recreate?

Thanks,

I responded to another thread that was having issues, and had an idea.

Are you running extensions for your campaign? If so, can you disable and test again?

Thanks,

Hi I play games of PFRPG with Angloson, the issue we are having was that when targeting a friendly PC under another players control you cannot effect them (heal, damage, attack), this is happened both in a game he runs and a game I run although we may use similar modules,

we can however target friendly PC's under the same players control as well as any NPC's and hostiles, unsure why only PC's under other players control.

As far as I know i'm not using any extensions, I've not really added anything to fantasy grounds other than Modules

Thanks
Geanon

Thanks for the detail. I will see if I can recreate locally.

Cool. :)

When you post hot fixes would you mind mentioning which XML or LUA files are updated so that us extension developers who have already updated our extensions to 3.0.4 (or whichever future version) will know if we need to update our extensions again to take the hot fix into account. That would be great! Thanks. :)

Yeah, a bit more hotfix needs than I like to see on this one.

The changes were in CoreRPG ruleset in the files: campaign/template_campaign.xml ("button_record_locked" template), and scripts/manager_actor.lua (getActor function).

As a general note, if you are having to replace the global script files in CoreRPG for your extension, we should talk to see how I can make hooks for you since these are the basis for how lots of things work.

In 3.0.4 5E ruleset, targeted healing issue (sorry just noticed this was happening). Heal die rolls but heals are not applied to target. Can drag from chat to target and heals just fine.

Is this before or after the hot fix update that came out today?

THANKS!!! We appreciate the speed at which you all work!

Yes, thank you. You get right on top of issues, acknowledging them even if its not what your working on that moment.

Is it just me or I can't modify spell actions now? Looked through forums and this thread and nobody seems to mention it.

You may need to press the magnifying glass icon at the end of the action line to bring up a window with more details.

If this doesn't work, which ruleset are you using? Is this for new spells or existing spells with actions? Is this for PCs or NPCs? Are you running any extensions?

That's it. It was something I could not figure out. I believe in previous version it worked in a different way and I didn't noticed it. That's a huge relief, I was afraid something is broken in my FG and for some reason I could not figure it out myself.

a) I am dumb
b) Magnifying glass icon is not legible enough
c) Both :)

My friends and I are having an error. We're using the new world of darkness community ruleset, and when we opened up our character sheets today, our GM can't see the sheet, all she can see is the X button for exiting it. She's running version 3.0.4

Another one of our players is also running 3.0.4 and they also cannot access their character sheet. However I have not updated yet, I am running on version 3.0.2 and I can see my character sheet.

When we start a new server, she can view character sheets just fine. Is there any way to retrieve our character sheets/make them visible again on our server to our members who've updated? I'm hesitant to update for fear of suffering the same problem.

We have attempted to create a new server and copy over the files from our old server to the new one, and the error persists.

Screenshots will be forthcoming.

Thank you for the link, I replied to that thread with a request regarding the issue.

In my game last night I ran into another NPC sheet bug. If you share a NPC with a Player, the targeting does not work from the NPC sheet. They could however drop the attack and damage dice on the target in the combat tracker or the map token. This was the first time ive shared a NPC so im not sure if its always worked this way or not.

Also I was messing around with /die rolls and it seems that it has limits to the number of dice rolled, but instead of failing with a message it rolls and give incorrect results. example /die 3000d100. Yes i know no one is hardly ever going to need to roll any thing like that, but say your rolling for a random year in the past or the future.

Sharing NPCs with players was behaving differently than what you described. My players were unable to set the targets for the NPCs, but once I set the target for them, the NPC sheet was working fine.

I've just tested this and it is still working for me.

The GM needs to do a few things to enable full use of an NPC by the players (one of the key things being changing the NPC faction to friendly - green smiley face on CT). Full details and steps here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...l=1#post171712

NPC sheet player control is fixed, I removed the NPC and started it all over from scratch.

Thank you for the update - I like the changes to the CoreRPG ruleset!

Question...

Is it possible to disable alphabetical sorting of character sheet entries? For example, if I am adding ability scores on the main page, Strength will auto-sort to the lower half of the list, but I want it to be the first item.

Not right now, but a good point.

The default is to sort by underlying database order, which is essentially creation order unless something is deleted in the middle.

Not right now, but good point. I'll put on list.

Looks like you're running at least the Ability Damage Extension, if not other extensions as well - this extension is not compatible with 3.0.4.

Check the forum threads for each of your extensions to see that they are compatible with 3.0.4. Remove the ones that aren't compatible/haven't been updated for 3.0.4.

Hot Fix

• [PFRPG/3.5E] Ongoing damage effects not being applied with damage type information. Fixed.
• [PFRPG/3.5E] DR with and/or clauses was being ignored. Fixed.
• [CHAR CONVERTER] Missing weapon damage data when Hero Lab output imported into FG local/campaign directly. Fixed.

Are these updating 3.5E scripts/manager_combat2.lua ??

It changes these functions in the 3.5E ruleset files:
ActionDamage.decodeDamageTypes, ActionDamage.getDamageAdjust, EffectManager.getEffectsByType

Cool, thanks - no need for me to update any of the extensions I maintain.

Thanks for the hot fix and the info.

Is there a way to automate NPC attacks in the current 5e ruleset, or is it all by hand for now?

edit: Found it now, though spellcasting classes are confounding me. Can't really figure out how to set the PCs up so that the preperation/casting works according to the rules.
