Bell-Ring Error on CT and GM handling PCs

[Oberoten]

Alas a new bug revealed.

We keep trying to get through the old lovely adventure of "Djupets Fasor" and we keep running into little bugs... some annoying, some PLANNED in the adventure (big NASTY evil bugs really) but this one I am sure is unintentional.

If the GM takes a PC on the combat tracker and the CT tries to ring the players bell, it throws an error, scaling and rotation of tokens from CT becomes impossible.

Can you give me more detail on the issue?

I'm not following the "takes a PC on the combat tracker" statement. Does that mean anytime a PC's turn comes up, or have you done something to the PC before the error happens?

Thanks,

If the "Bell on Players Turn" is turned on in the BRP ruleset and I as a GM have control of one of the PC's on the combat tracker, it will throw an error when it is that PC's turn since there is in fact no "player" holding it.

I get the same error when I use that option in v2.6.5. We'll have to ask the ruleset developer to take a look.

I'm on the case!

OK, thanks to JPG I was able to locate and fix the script error on ringing the bell on an unowned PC's turn. The amended script is attached.

I'm not sure about the other problem you mentioned Obe, about scaling and rotating tokens - did that only happen following the first problem, or is it unrelated?

To Use: Unzip the combattracker_entry.lua file and place it in the scripts subdirectory of the ruleset folder.

Kudos.

As for scaling and rotation this was only after the error fired and hence the CT went into "I am not here" mode.

Excellent! I'll wrap the last few fixes up into a new version once 2.7 has fully bedded in.
