TOTARGETS is working correctly, however the description of TOTARGETS on the wiki is wrong; it copies the description of TOSELF instead of correctly explaining how it works (applies the effect to the "caster" and targets the creature that the effect was "applied" to).
PFRPGS2 NPC Ability Automation
EDIT: Forgot to say this is on the test channel.
This is working fine for me - the NPC with the "flat-footed"|Effect: Gang Up; flat-footed NPC automation targets a creature in the CT and when the effect automation is triggered it applies the effect to the target with effect targeting back to the actor.Quote:

Thanks for reporting, I'll get that text fixed in a future Wiki update.Quote:

Ah, I see - you're using drag/drop. Which doesn't work for TOSELF and TOTARGETS. It will never work for TOTARGETS but I'll see if I can make it work for TOSELF. In the meantime, use targeting to apply the effect.Quote:

What I should have said is they will never work for all situations. TOTARGETS is very often used with multiple targets - which aren't handled with a single drap/drop, you have to do it multiple times. Maybe that's fine and what users expect, but it's not very efficient and doesn't make full use of the FG targeting.Quote:

Also, found a minor visual glitch - the Spell/Ability Effect window has two close boxes.
Activities still don't seem to be adding to the character correctly if linked to a heritage directly, rather than linked to a feature attached to that heritage.
Tested with: Test channel, no extension enables, no modules at all loaded.

The "trigger" section on feats is missing the word "Trigger". Picture included for clarity. Tested with no extensions.
