5E Advanced Effects (items, npcs, characters)

Hi Celestian!

I'm seeing these since the update to 3.3.10. They seem to only appear if combined with 5e Combat Enhancer Classic v1_5_9 (which I'm debugging).

Runtime Notice: s'manager_effect_adnd.lua' | s'isValidCheckEffect' | s'bResult' | bTRUE

Looking at the lua, I'm not sure how critical that debug statement is...

I'm not sure what that's from. Checking my extension code I don't even see a debug to console for that. I've no familiarity with the Combat Enhancer.

I went back several revs of my code and don't see that.

I'd suggest clearing out any local versions and downloading the latest and seeing if it's still an issue. From my testing of 5E I've not seen any issues with the current version with 3.3.9 or 3.3.10.

For reference:

AdvancedEffects->manager_effect_adnd.lua line 581.

Yeah, still does it. Not saying the problem is with AdvancedEffect, trying to understand what that debug indicates.

Line 581 in manager_effect_adnd.lua is

Hum, that IS the current version of the extension here but not the latest. I'll correct that. My mistake... I thought I had updated when I guess I had not.

Update 4.2: Bugfix: issues with DMonly flags on effects.

Also cleans out some irrelevant debug code left dangling in older versions of the extension.

I'll give that a spin! Cheers man!

Celestina, you are on fire with the FGU extensions! Is there any chance this will also come to FGU?

Have you tried it? I'm not aware of any changes that would keep it from working but if you find something I'll take a look.

I've been using this tool for some time and only recently had a closer look at how it works. I had assumed (wrongly) that if I applied an effect to a sword that checked for undead and added +2 dmg it only applied to that sword. But it seems that once an effect is loaded onto a player it applies to everything, every weapon or dmg event.

Is there a way to apply an effect specifically, only, to an item when it is used? I am guessing not but can't hurt to ask.

Also, if you use an IFT can I have multiple efects from the one check? eg IFT: TYPE(Undead): ATK 2; DMG 2; or do you have to check for each mod... IFT: TYPE(Undead): ATK 2; IFT: TYPE(Undead): DMG 2; or can you use commas? IFT: TYPE(Undead): ATK 2, DMG 2; (not sure if colons and semis are right but you get the point).

Set the "action only" value on the effect.
