2nd-level spells dragged onto Actions tab are not being categorized as Spells (Level 2), although a group appears with that name. The spells are all in one group under Spells (Level 1).
[Edit]: If I go into the tab of any 1 of the level 2 spells and change it to level 3 ALL the Level-2 spells appear under the Spells (Level 2) category. I then get an empty Spells (Level 3) group header.
The magnifying glass in the heading of each group is not working (nothing happens when it is clicked).
5e v 3.2.0
Hi Moon Wizard,
Another awesome update, thanks.
I was playing with the Call of Cthulhu languages and cannot make them work in the 3.2 test build.
No matter what I do, I cannot see any languages appear in the chat selction box.
I have debugged a little and see that the new code is being used to populate the spoken languages (and percentages) from the skills but the dropdown is never populated.
Have I not got all of the updates or am I missing something?
Cheers,
Ian
Is it just me, or is everyone noticing that the 4E Ruleset seems to be taking an awful long time to load (and unload back to the FG Launcher) - a lot longer than any other Ruleset (it feels like about twice as long).
ianmward,
There aren't any definitive language lists in Call of Cthulhu, so I wasn't sure what to put here and then I forgot to follow up on it.
From what I can tell from the 7E PDF, here are the languages I found mentioned:
* Base: English, German, Dutch, Russian, Czech, Polish, Swahili, Zulu, Yoruba, Arabic, Greek, Burmese, Laotian, French, Italian, Chinese, (and a lot of etc.)
* Ancient: Phoenician, Latin, Egyptian, (ancient tongue)
* Special: Aklo, Hyperborean, Naacal, Ghoul, Muvian
So, I didn't want to try and dump a bunch of languages in the list that wouldn't be used. Any thoughts?
* Top 30 languages perhaps? (Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, English, Arabic, Portugese, Bengali, Russian, Japanese, German, Panjabi, Javanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Telugu, Marathi, Tamil, French, Urdu, Italian, Turkish, Persian, Gujarati, Polish, Ukrainian, Malayalam, Kannada, Oriya, Burmese, Thai)
* Top languages from Wikipedia? (English, Mandarin Chinese, Hindustani (Hindi-Urdu), Arabic, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Malay, French, German, Bengali, Japanese, Lahnda (incl. Punjabi), Persian (Farsi), Swahili, Tamil, Italian, Javanese, Telugu, Korean, Wu Chinese, Marathi, Turkish, Vietnamese, Yue Chinese, Egyptian Arabic)
* Top languages learned in US? (English, Spanish, French, German, Sign Language, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Latin, Russian, Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, Portuguese, Korean)
* Any definitive lists of "special" CoC languages?
dulux-oz,
I just tested on my machine. Here are the load times for a new campaign in the D&D rulesets: (3.5E - 7s, 4E - 8s, 5E - 10s)
Perhaps you have a large number of modules or graphics in those campaigns?

That's what I thought but I wanted to be sure.
Given that there are hundreds of languages, I'm not sure it makes sense to limit them.
In my 7e work, I wrote some code to automatically update the list of available languages based on which skills were around. It works for PC skills (haven't extended it NPCs yet) but is a bit messy and I haven't updated it for the cool new obfuscation in 3.20.
What do you think? Is it better to hard code a list of available languages or to dynamically build it from the characters' skills?
I think it's better to hard code a limited set of languages (<50) that reflect the most common usage for CoC, and let GMs add additional languages to their campaign (similar to how I would suggest people add campaign specific languages for any D&D campaign).
What do you think about these as the default?
* Current: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Swahili, Arabic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Korean
* Ancient: Latin, Egyptian, Hebrew
* Special: Unknown (see below)
Does it make sense to specify any of the special languages, given that the players will rarely speak them? Or just add an Unknown option to let the GM speak in any unknown language?
That makes 16 plus a generic "Unknown" language, which makes it a manageable default size list.
If adventurous, we could add extensions to add additional languages for specific settings as needed. But, I figure that's a future endeavor.
Thanks,
