Resistance to magic weapons
Creating an NPC that takes normal damage from slashing weapons, but resists damage from magical slashing weapons.
When I add the following, the combat tracker doesn't take into account the word "magical" like it would "nonmagical". It assumes that the resistance is to all slashing damage, not just magical.
Damage Resistances: slashing from magical weapons
Any suggestions?

That kinda turns convention on it's head and I don't think you can do what you want to do. FG searches for a string such as slashing from nonmagical weapons; which translates to RESIST: slashing, !magic. It won't recognise 'magical' only 'nonmagical'. Essentially resistance is a not logic; so slashing from weapons that are not magical. You really want slashing from weapons that are magical which FG can't handle. I've played about a bit but I can't get anything to work.

Yes, that seems to work.
