BLUF: I'm getting the same errors, but after 15 seconds of work, there is no impact. My assessment is this is a low priority fix.Quote:

I am not seeing the Dark Side and Light Side Tokens... They seem to have stopped working along with the dice error. I recently rebuilt my computer and moved all my old files over and no other game seems to be having issues, just FFG.Quote:

Same Dice error message as previously stated:
--[ERROR] Script execution error: [string "CoreRPG:scripts/manager_diceskin.lua"]:438: attempt to call field 'getColorsFromCurrentID' (a nil value)
Destiny Chits (Works in Genesys campaign/Not working in Star Wars campaign):
-- Does not allow GM to add destiny Tokens when left click on images
-- Reports dark side destiny chit used in chat window, but no change to the Destiny Token.
-- No report of light side destiny chit used in chat window, no change to Destiny Token.
-- Dragging light or dark side chit to dicepoolwindow does still upgrade the dice pool correctly but did not change the destiny token images.
Initiative Rolls (Both Genesys & Star Wars campaigns not working as previously):
(Using player sheet & combat tracker menu radial)
-- Dice are rolled, correct output is shown on the chat window of symbols from dice, but initiative value is not updated into the combat tracker.
Dicepool Tracker Window (Both Genesys & Star Wars campaigns not working as previously):
It states "(This list will be empty until at least one player connects)" despite players being connected and controlling character sheets.
-- Console Warning - setValue: Database note not owned (combattracker.initskill)
-- Console Warning - windowcontrol: Could not find frame (indexboxtitledicebox) in control () in class (dieboxgenview)
-- Attempted Fixes with no success: Players relogged, players released character sheets and reselected character sheet, players attempted to create new characters
As stated numerous times, thank you so much for creating this work of love to both of johniba and Sevrick. Our gaming group truly appreciates all the hard work and this is still the best option in our opinion for playing FFG Star Wars. This post was to see if others have seen the same issues since the FG update and if so, to help with any troubleshooting when you have the time.
because I have been rebuilding my system. We never got as far as testing other features. I do believe my group did come across the Combat tracker issue. I remembered it when I read your post. Very Concisely laid out, Artrem. We have truly enjoyed having this system to play. As Artrem said, Thank you! for getting things started, Johniba and Sevrick. This is the Rule set of Star Wars I have enjoyed the most.
Nice catch Artrem! I'm using Genesys only and haven't had the destiny point issue. I just re-tested the Initiative and Dicepool issues you mentioned and they're not working for me either. We haven't had a live session in that game since FG update.Quote:

Attachment 55007
But, if I exit that campaign and immediately host again without exiting FGU, it works as intended?!?! Then every time I exit and rehost, it cycles as working/not working/working/not working. (see image below)
Attachment 55008
I can immediately tell if it's working as the destiny chits will look like the second image. The only thing I did was exit and rehost. So... if it consistently works of others, maybe a work around until smarter people figure it out.
We did play continue our Star Wars game last night and received the dice error whenever a player joined/left the game or clicked a portrait to change characters. The Destiny chits are also a problem for us, we did try the workaround, and it did work for me as the host, it did not for the players. The automation for initiative rolls is working correctly, but the players are unable to select which character is to act from turn to turn. The dice pool tracker in the party sheet is completely nonfunctional, but using the work around, it did work for me, but not any of the players. Our thanks for all the hard work on this so far, and we look forward to using this a great deal going forward.Quote:

As for what I have been working on is updating the genesys libraries and going to upload the update when I am finished with Relms of Terrinoth. It is slow going since I am doing data entry at the same time.
I would try addressing the bugs but that is more Johnibas territory.
@JGLinx2 Ah, I tested it with two clients on the same computer hence why it was working all the time. You're right though, when I tested it with two separate computers initially the player computer wouldn't work (could move the destiny chits, just wouldn't show them). The host computer did receive the errors with connect/disconnect as well as clicking on another character sheet.Quote:

The player computer could not advance their turn or click on marker to indicate they were taking the turn regardless of what I tried to do. All in all, the work arounds will work for our group until a true fix is completed.
@sevrick Thanks for the update, again appreciate all hard work on the libraries, that's hard work as well.
So I develop Genesys and Star Wars rulesets together. Basically the approach is similar to what you see Smiteworks doing with Core->PathFinder/DND as in most of the code (the part that is similar in both genesys and star wars rulesets) is actually developed in Genesys.Quote:

When you load FantasyGrounds with star wars, it will actually load genesys and then star wars, and handle "merging" these two in real time.
It is very subtle and you wont notice this except for the chat box showing both have been loaded up.
This development approach allows us to have both rulesets feature rich and up to date.
Having said all that, this is why it is also very important that if you are using the star wars ruleset that you actually subscribe to both genesys and star wars, in the forge
P.S.: Edge studios did not kill Genesys. It certainly is on the slow side, but they have the Twilight Imperium setting book for genesys that will be stores soon, for example.
I also read they are restocking on star wars/genesys
I have been away for a few months due to moving to a new home/city and also work, but I will now make sure to release at least a fix/compatibility.Quote:

Just to let you all know. I have finally finished moving to the new house, and finished the most important renovations so now I can finally focus on working with FG coding!
Work is also giving me some break, so all is well :)
Sorry for being out of contact for so long, I did not want anyone to get anxious and think this was abandoned
I will focus this week on the most pressing issues:
- fixing any issues caused by FG updates.
- improve the destiny/story chits
I am still developing the force powers window and elite specializations, but i will make sure to release compatibilty updates as mentioned above, this weekend!
Thanks for the patience, for all kind words and for being here. This ruleset would be nothing if not for all of you!
Glad the move went well!
The issue with the error message was easy to fix...
I am now working on fixing the strange behaviour with Story/Force chits not working unless you refresh the client.
I believe I know what is causing it. The way the chit update communication is handled is using an old FG method, and I have to admit I was delaying updating this code for some time now, but since I have to find a fix, it is better i make it clean and new :)
This should not be hard, and I will have it working in a few days :)
Thanks!Quote:

Excellent news! Glad to hear things are stabilized for you. Thanks for all your hard work.
Organized board games? How does that work? You mean to tell me you are trying something other then craming them all into a bookshelf any which way until they all fit?
LOL yeah I mean... you got me.Quote:

NEW RELEASE!
Version 2022-11-11
Unless mentioned, the fix or improvement is for both Genesys and Star Wars.
Fixes:
- Story/Destiny tokens: fixed compatibility issues with recent FGU updates where tokens would not update after loading a campaign.
- Moved Tokens window a little to the right so as not to overlap with the two d10's from FGU
- Fixed error message about Dice colors, when loading the campaign
- Combat Tracker/Initiative rolls: fixed issue where initiative rolls did not update in combat tracker
Improvements:
- Updated ruleset code across the board: old methods for sending/receiving internal messages were incompatible with recent FGU updates.
The updates are only in background, nothing changes in ruleset behaviour or appearance.
Known Issues:
1)
If you close your campaign and go back to the initial FGU screen and then reopen a campaign, features that use internal communication (Story tokens, Party vehicle sharing...) stop working.
I am investigating if there is a fix for this.
For now the work around is either
- Close FGU entirelly and reopen
- Reload your campaign again: if you see the Story/Destiny tokens displaying correctly, all is fine.
This issue does not cause any problems with your campaign, so no worries.
2) Dicepool tracker is not working. I will fix soon
How to download the new version:
FG Unity:
You can subscribe to both rulesets in FG Forge. This will ensure that they are automatically downloaded whenever I upload a new version.
(P.S.: everytime I upload a new version here in the forums, it may take a few hours for it to show up in Forge, as it requires Moderators to approve)
(P.S.: If you have already done this before, you only need to click "Check for Updates" in FG Unity, and the download will start)
To subscribe and download the rulesets, follow the links:
Genesys: https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/143/view
Star Wars: https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/159/view
(Remember, if you want to use the Star Wars ruleset, make sure to subscribe/download BOTH)
FG Classic
This update is NOT compatible with FG Classic
I can no longer maintain the code in a way that it works with the old client, I am sorry
You can use an older version of the rulesets, downloading from the google drive link below
Modules and other extensions need to be downloaded from the above link below
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...R-?usp=sharing
Download Genesys ruleset even if you are playing Star Wars
Always remember to download BOTH rulesets if you intend to use Star Wars
As I said in my post above, I have fixed the issues with Story/Destiny tokens
There is still some weird behaviour if you reload the campaign (read the previous post), but that only happens when reloading a second time.
I am checking why this is happening and if there is a permanent fix, or even if it is an issue in FGU. I will keep you all updated!
Please also notice, the party dicepool in the party window is not working yet, I will fix and update later this week
I have collected all reported issues and will focus my attention on them until I fix them all :)
Hey guys, I just updated with this fix:
- Combat Tracker/Initiative rolls: fixed issue where initiative rolls did not update in combat tracker
As usual, just hit update in FGU and it will download the fix :)
Another update:
- Fixed the dicepool tracker:
Dicepool tracker will always display dicepools, even if the GM has no one connected (in this case it will show the GM's dicepool - IF the gm rolls are not hidden)
Update is already available in the forge, just open FGU, and hit check for updates
I think I have fixed all the reported issues.
Please let me know if you find any new issues, or anyone I missed :)
Thanks for the quick work on these issues Johniba. As always, amazing work!!
Thank you for these updates, Johniba! I've got an ongoing game and you've just made my week =D
Such awesome work! :) I finally had my first few games with my friend using your ruleset. Worked out great and he's mostly sold on the game but he can't seem to wrap his head around how the dice work quite yet.
Just as a very gentle reminder, is it possible to have a variant mechanic for the destiny pool where you can either right-click and reduce the quantity by 1 and/or when you drag a destiny point it reduces the quantity by 1. It's a variant that I use but it doesn't work with the rules as written.
If you can't do it, that is 100% fine. You'd only be doing that for me. :)
But yes, like so many say, it's an awesome rule set and thank you for working on it.

Oh in regards to that feature with destiny points, i am working on it right now and should soon make it available in an update!
That's awesome. This is a really great product. Have you considered trying to get FFG/Smiteworks to by it from you to make it an official product?
Would you be able to add a lock all button? Because I am not sure when it happens but it seems after some updates it unlocks all my entries and I have to go through them one by one and lock them.
Good idea, I will see what I can do.Quote:

- Removed Starting Skill Ranks special abilites from spieces to prepare for new system.

Edge of the Empire
- Added Jet Pack and Rocket Boots type to personal Vehicles.
Force and Destiny
- Add missing Wound Threshold for the Gand Findsman.

It is too bad that FFG didn't get the digitial license back when Star Wars was owned by Lucas Films, it would have made things much easier but since FFG couldn't publish PDFs/digial content you wouldn't go through FFG/Edge you'd have to go through Disney. I have a friend who has delt with Disney before. It is sadly unlikey. Smiteworks is too small of a company for them to care about.
Hello so I recently just downloaded this ruleset and I find that whenever I dragged and dropped a weapon, I get this error. Is there anyway to fix this? Attachment 55320
What weapon was it?Quote:

If you want it in the actions tab all you have do I think is mark the weapon as equipped in the inventory tab and it should be added to the actions tab automatically.Quote:

wow, this is a lot of updates, thanks SevrickQuote:
