How/where do you add a character's Obligation, Duty, and/or Morality? I see a place for them on the character sheet, but I can't find where they're located in the toolbar.
You need to edit the main page (Circle with the slash through it at the bottom right). Then you can add or remove motivation, obligation, duty, or mortality.
As of right now there is no tool bar. Personally I put them all into a table with all the information in the charts, follow the instructions @Idward provided and then just drag and drop from there.
I found the Edit button that lets you add those fields.Quote:

I eventually found Obligation, Duty, Morality, and Motivation in the Tables section.
Thank you for the advice.
Another question: How do you handle Credits? We've been using an older ruleset for FG Classic for several years and the Inventory tab just has a field at the bottom for a character's credits. In this one, I see that I could just name an item in the "Treasure" section as Credits, but if there's already a way to do this, I'd appreciate the knowledge.
I thought I understood the import/export process, but something has me super confused. I have a TEST campaign where I've entered descriptions for every Talent (both the summaries and the long descriptions). I've also entered all the Talents from the Clone Wars supplements that weren't in the Talents. I also entered skill descriptions, along with some of the additional symbol tables in the splat books. I did a backup/export to create a module with the descriptions, skills, talents, and specializations. It brought everything over except specifically the descriptions on the new Talents I manually entered. The name, activation, book/page number are all there - they're just missing the summary and long descriptions. I tried exporting separate modules for just the descriptions and with each category separately and I have the exact same problem. I've spent literal hours entering this stuff under the advice of doing it in a separate campaign and now it looks like I have to copy/paste all of the descriptions for those Talents again. I don't see how this was any easier than just doing all the work in my actual campaign. Am I doing something wrong?
The benefit of doing it in a separate campaign is that you can export all the data as a module and the load it in any other campaign, and you can create your own settings that way, and provide a player loadable module. That’s the FG way of doing it.Quote:

Oh and for Credits, type “Credits” in one of their Treasure sections and then use the number value to mark how much they have. Then you can use the Party Sheet to distribute more.
There’s currently a bug I have noticed here though that we need to fix… due to the character sheet using the old Treaure list and not the new one from CoreRPG. We’ll need to fix it up later.
That's the part I don't understand.Quote:

Sorry, yes that is exactly what I meant. Only manually created records in the campaign you export are included in a module.Quote:

If you already edited them I believe you can just click and drag them in the list or to another category to copy it with the edits you made. Once you’ve done that, export all, and the copies should be there.
This is better to do anyway because if you just edit descriptions in a loaded module, players don’t see the edits unless you also share the updated record.
Wait - are you saying you’re creating Talents within the campaign and then exporting, and even those descriptions are omitted! If that’s the case that’s a bug, that really shouldn’t happen… it seems to work when I do it in a Genesys campaign.
