OSE Ruleset Feedback/Bugs Support thread

Activity all on the CT. Ctrl-Click on token on map to target. Doesn't matter if I click on the little gray die, on the 0 box, or drag the die to the Chat.

Next to the weapon on the sheet is an icon that changes. I have figured out what the two points are (missile weapons, as it gives me a # field and decrements when I roll) but the other symbols don't seem to mean anything, except switching to the arm with sword (what it looks like) clears the text in the damage box and gives 3 damage for any weapon when clicked.

Thanks for your work on this.

Ok found the issue for demihumans I was grabbing the martial table out of the tome not RC. so depending on AC of defender it may not exist. Updating in next 10 minutes

Ok give that a shot.

Solved. Great! Thanks. Not that running it with THAC0 would be an issue. But if the matrices are anything like AD&D 1e, there's a range of ACs that a 20 hits, whereas with THAC0 there is only one. But I don't expect to get that granular with OSE. Excellent work. Thanks for your prompt attention.

Hi, we have been using the OSE extension and it's been working great for us. A couple things cropped up in our last session: yesterday while playing OSE I think the program was giving a strength bonus for thrown weapons. Plus one player was getting an unexpected +1 to his melee attacks (he didn't have a strength bonus or anything else that would give it, we think).
Also, the program was slowing down as the night progressed. It was getting pretty sluggish for my players (and I noticed it as GM although not as bad). This has been an issue for more than a month, I think. I am not sure if it is an FG issue or an OSE issue.
Thanks.

I will need more details so I can try and see the issue. Please provide screen shots of the main tab so I can see the stats and how your weapons are set. It is most like an issue with how your players setup their charactersheets. Also i need to know if you are using weapon proficiencies and a screen shot of that tab and record you create. Lastly i need to see a screenshot of the combat tracker. You can post here or discord.


As far as being sluggish since it is your players it could come down to internet connecrion issues.

First there is no "thrown attack". He/She may have the toggle to melee and think it is thrown as it kinda of looks like a guy throwing a hammer. To throw a weapon set it to ranged (arrow icon)

I went and looked at this to refresh my memory on the coding so I could help you. It is important to remember there are basically 4 variations of OSE you can play. Basic (BECMI/Weapon prof both off), Advanced Fantasy (weapon prof off ), Advanced Fantasy (weapon prof. on ) and BECMI (weapon prof turned on). Those options will all affect your attack and possibly damage rolls. I could not reproduce the issue. I did add another check for proficiency (weird edge case) but if that had been the issue it would have caused your rolls to have a negative modifier.

Ok thanks. I’ll check these things next session and double check the issue to see if it still happens, etc.
Thanks

The scrolls and maps in the table on p216 of the Referee's Tome should be included. You've stated in a closed thread that you don't see how spell scrolls (for example) can be entered, since each one will be different, but I don't see how that objection would apply to the cursed scroll and the various protection scrolls described on pages 216-217, each of which is unique and described in detail in the rules. (FWIW, I also disagree about the spell scrolls and treasure maps, as I believe having basic entries for these with the descriptions provided on pages 218-219 would be both easy and helpful to players, but, well, you know, that's just like, uh, my opinion, man.)

Thanks for your opinion, I'll take a look at that example you gave
