REGEN is only evaluated at the start of the actors turn. It's not 5EAE that doesn't support it, it is just REGEN doesn't work like how you are trying to use it.Quote:

Ok. Thanks you. Do you know if AC also works the same? Start of turn only? What about HEAL?

Can you explain exactly what you are trying to do? Maybe I can help.
I'm trying to create a unique weapon ability that, when the PC uses this weapon and they are bloodied (half HP or less), the PC is healed for x. If they don't use this weapon, they should not benefit from the healing.Quote:

Also how long does the "used" part last? 1 round? a week?
A single attack (or damage) made with the weapon would trigger a heal, if the wielder is bloodied.Quote:

The Action Only option from this extension is designed to cause effects that normally apply to every weapon action (attack and damage modifiers being the primary use case from the ruleset) and make them instead apply only when this specific weapon is used. The problem is that the REGEN effect has nothing to do with actions that Watsons make, as mentioned it applies simply at the start of the character's turn.Quote:

I'm going to assume a few things, like it's not temp HP, you only wanted it once a turn, etc.Quote:

This below goes on the weapon itself.
SDMGADDS: LoveTap; DUSE; ATURN
(Make sure to click action only)
This below goes in the effects list in the top right.
LoveTap;IF:Bloodied; REGENE: 5
DUSE will cause it to disable each attack, ATURN turns it back on at the start of any turn (note this is not start of round, so this can make it happen 2 times in a round, but only once a turn)
This also will heal at the end users turn. There are other ways to automate it but seemed like this one fit the best. You can use REGENA: 5 if you want it to insta heal, however, that can have other issues I've seen.
Let me know how it works out for you.
Todays FG update impacted this extension. Adding an NPC to the combat tracker throws an error.
