Oof. I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had so much trouble with the system and/or the people trying to play within it.Quote:

Maybe it wasnt very clear.
There are about 8000 rpgs out there and hundreds and hundreds of unique dice mechanics.
Each roll typically takes me between 1 and 8 hours to write and there are well over a hundred of them.
Some systems are obtuse and difficult seemingly just for the sake of being so.
But anyway....
I dont know how most systems work. If I write a roll for a system it needs to be explained in great detail how the roll works and what things can influence a roll and what the roll is compared to and how a roll should report its results etc etc
It also seems that many people who think they are playing the same game system are actually playing by very different interpretations of rules and are probably not playing the same game as each other.
If you want to identify what each roll should do, and in considerable detail, and you have at least one other person who will do the same then I will consider writing/fixing the rolls.
However I would also ask that you in return you would create 2 to 4 pre-gen characters using the new rolls, 2-4 npcs and a mini adventure containing some story, maybe a map, and 2-4 encounters.
*Bug Report*
So I thought this was and issue with my ISP, firewalls, or some other connection issue, but I was wrong.
My OTHER slowness issues was I ran a campaign for 4 years and never un-shared a map. The moment I un-shared all my maps, all my issues (but one) went away.
History
Issue:
New Players are unable to DL Ruleset.
Steps to reproduce
1) Have player delete MoreCore.pak from their machine
2) GM starts Campain with MoreCore ruleset
3) Player logs in.
Unfortunately, I am the only one with an Ultimate License so I couldn't test this from multiple machines.
I had them delete the FateCore.pak and try the same steps, FateCore downloaded without issue. granted it is a little over 1mb smaller.
Hope this is helpful, let me know if you need any additional info.
Hi, its me again :) Please disregard my post in the tutorials thread. I am still working on this Top Secret sheet. One of the first problems I had is how to do the traits (stats.) You take two or three stats that are rolled, and average them to make a new stat. I am not sure how to do this. In this example, I have Offense, and that is figured by Adding Courage and Coordination, then dividing them by two. I placed the primary traits as shown, then dragged the stats into the reference tabs. But I can't seem to figure out how to do the math. Any thoughts?

You will need a custom roll to do this...Quote:

Here is the character sheet if it helps. https://www.mad-irishman.net/pubs/MI...ntsDossier.pdf
You are going to need to write an extension to do this.
It is totally covered in the MoreCore Extension videos.
Basically original Top Secret had three levels of basic characteristics. 6 of them were d100 rolls (for instance Courage and Coordination), the second set of characteristics were the average of different primary characteristics (for instance the value of Offense is (Courage+ Coordination) / 2, then there were tertiary characteristics which were some combination of averages of the primary and secondary or the sum of primary and secondaries, etc.Quote:

EDIT: I seem to always post when someone is replying to the post I am replying to, so ignore me. :)
It is FGC, good assumption. I have FGU, but I haven't had time to play around with it to where I am comfortable moving everyone over.Quote:
