Table Columns

[limpinjezus]

Is there a limit to the number of table columns in a rollable table? I have a table will 11 columns. Each column in another table link. I use the /rollon command like this: /rollon mytable - c column -d #
I can get all columns to work up through the 9th. I can't get column 10 and 11 to work.

There's no limit built in to the CoreRPG coding that I can see. Perhaps a different limitation or bug?

Can you post a sample module with the 11 column table, as well as the exact "rollon" command you are using?

Mod attached.
The command I am using is /rollon Chaos Odds -c Impossible -d 1

Some more clarification. Using that command above, it seems it rolls on ALL columns instead of the one specified if it is any column above the ninth. So not a limitation in the number of columns in a rollable table but some limitation/bug in the /rollon command perhaps?

Since the SW guys are busy, if you will recompile your module for 3.5 compatibility (should be just changing the ruleset in your definition.xml, as I cannot imagine there is anything in your module that absolutely needs 3.5?), I will troubleshoot the problem. I am working on tables mods, so I need to make sure it will work with my changes anyway.

Attached the mod compatible with 3.5E. Thanks.

OK. Appreciate it. Let me see what I can figure out.

OK, I found the problem. limpinjezus, you are doing nothing wrong. There is a bug in the Table Manager that causes this behavior.

MW, there is this line in the onTableRoll function in manager_table.lua:

	local sPattern2 = "%[" .. Interface.getString("table_tag") .. "%] [^[]+%[(%d) %- ([^)]*)%]";

That line should be:

	local sPattern2 = "%[" .. Interface.getString("table_tag") .. "%] [^[]+%[([%d]+) %- ([^)]*)%]";

I am testing now to make sure this corrects the problem.

[Bidmaron]

MW, that change fixes the problem. The way it was, any column number of more than one digit would fail to parse, and the column number defaults to zero, which means to use all the columns in the result. This was the behavior limpinjezus was seeing.

Awesome thanks!
