But that should be accepted by FGU effect parsing.
ADVSKILL could come from an extension, but I have it!
Problem solved...ADVSKILL do not work with targeting...so, no IFT: TYPE().
Cannot be automated like this...
I was mostly referring to [ACTION] and [SELF]. I've never seen them like that. In the displays for effects it lists them like that on powers if you set those values but far as I've seen it didn't place them in the effect... but, keep in mind I dont play 5e all that often so it might actually work that way.Quote:

The source issue has been a problem that I've got an idea how to fix but not resolved yet.
Working with 5E Ruleset
Added the extension to the extensions folder.
Opened Options, scrolled down to [House Rules (GM)], and [Enabled] the [PC: Adv. Effect Edit].
Added a Dragon Slayer sword to the PC inventory, opened the sword details sheet, and added the dragons slaying effect code for the Dragon Slayer and toggled the ActionOnly radial dial: IFT: TYPE(dragon); DMG: 3d6
Added the PC to the Combat tracker. Note: I had to remove the add the PC back for the effect to show in the combat tracker.
Added a nasty dragon to the Combat Tracker.
Rolled damage - [DAMAGE (M)] Longsword Dragon Slayer [EFFECTS 3d6] [TYPE: magic (1d8+3d6+1=14)]
Advanced effect in use.
Nice script!
I am trying to add the effect to the Combat Tracker for dragon sensing provided by dragon armor. For example, the dragon scale armor made from a black dragon allows the PC to sense any black dragon within 30 miles.
I am wanting to just add the effect to the armor like [Dragon Sense; aware of black dragons within 30 miles], but it does not show in the tracker.

Thus far, I have been unsuccessful. Does this tool provide for Effects of Note?
That should work, have you tried unequipping and re-equiping?Quote:

EDIT: Also - equipping and unequipping resolves the issue (as you so plainly suggested) :).
Turn it off and on again, as it were. :)
I had noticed the updates appeared to dynamically cascade to the Combat Tracker as I made them on the weapon, which cluttered my judgement that it would work with a simple edit.
It's 7 AM and all is well!
Thanks Celestian!
In theory it should auto-update in the CT but only if the effect existed before equipping.Quote:

If I load without it, the damage dice of weapons properly switches when you switch how you are wielding the weapon (one or two handed).
