Thanks for the progress update! Looking forward to the next release.
Is there a git repository somewhere so that we could help you and contribute some pull requests ?
If the vehicles are going to take awhile to get working, are you planning on releasing a smaller update that fixes the bugs 1st? Mainly the one that doesn't allow me to give minions group skills. When ever I check the box I get this:
Script Error: [string "scripts/manager_miniongenesys.lua"]:28: attempt to index a nil value
Also good job cant wait to see how it turns out.:)
Thank you so much for coding this johniba.
I've been experiencing an error message. Every time I try to add a skill or add a description of that skill a window opens with this error message:
Quote:
Runtime Error: desktop: Unable to create window with invalid class (referenceskill : skill id-00001)
Also whenever i click on the dragon icon on a character sheet to open a window to the skill description nothing opens and an error message appears (in the chat window, not the ):
Are these known bugs, or am i doing something wrong?Quote:
Unable to find skill record with the correct name.
yes it is a known error, i just added to my list of issues, i will work onQuote:

I did create a git repository but i am not updating the code there yet, i am using it to track the issues though
https://github.com/ibarzabal/Genesys/issues
I am new to Fantasy Grounds and extension/ruleset building but would gladly contribute. Mainly I have interests in extending this ruleset to Star Wars. Any advice to where I should start ?
I do believe that it is Johniba's intention to make an extension for this ruleset, so it works with the Star Wars ruleset, but not until the ruleset is considered feature complete.
Personally I can't wait for the Star Wars version. While perfectly serviceable, the current Star Wars ruleset has some rather annoying bugs, that is driving me slightly insane. *smirk*
Can't wait for any update here either!
While yes Johniba is planning on making a star wars extension, I would start by unpacking the this ruleset. Open it as a zip file. Then make a new folder and extract those files to it. Look through the various files in a text editor, I prefer Notepad++ but any will do. You can get a feeling on how things work. Since the Star Wars rules are going to be an extension it will work by overriding pieces of code in the main ruleset. This is nice because you can copy .xml files from the ruleset and make changes without effecting the ruleset.Quote:

In the scripts folder "open data_common_genesys.lua". You can see all the skills are layed out in a specific pattern. Just add and take away skills that pertain to your setting in this case Star Wars. Also keep in mind when making an extension you want to keep the same folder structure.
There is more before you can actually get to work in game but that is a start. I know it's not exactly what you were asking for but that should at least get you familiar with the code and the patterns so you can easily add your own stuff like Star Wars things later. This is all for you if you positively can't wait for the Official extension to come out, but it is also useful information if you want to make your own setting extension for Genesys.
I have already plans to create such extension.Quote:

I am really close to finish all features (i will improve more things also, but that will come later) and as soon as i am done fixing errors and adding vehicles to the ruleset, i will release the star wars one.
