    Arbitrary 'owner' for characters

    As Dm if I try and erase the owner of a new character I get a script error saying the prog expected a value and received a null instead.

    It seems impossible to complete the char creation process as a dm by assigning a portrait to the char.

    Also is it possible to have an arbitrary owner or category associated with characters such as "Bandit" or "Waterdeep".


    Sigurd.


    I'd includea a screenshot but you don't allow attachments.

    Can you give the entire error message, along with possible file name and line number? If this occurred the last time you ran the program, the console contents should be in a file called console.log in the data folder.

    We had to stop somewhere to release the bugger . In other words, noted as a feature request.

    The owner field indicates the user name used by the client who has control of the character, and is not as such proper for this use. Out of the box, the NPC list tabs would be the things most suited for this use.

    Seems to have stopped happening right as I started to capture it


    Another request while I think of it. Could you place the 'owner' on the top page of the character sheet somewhere. It would help for screenshots.

    So is there a way to select a graphic portrait for an NPC?

    Adding the owner field to the character sheet would be very easy to do. You just need a stringcontrol with an onInit that populates it with the owner field from the database. I can see if I can wrangle up the code later, the only problem is finding a place to put it

    I also think it would be nice to have the char portrait on the sheet too.

    But I've said that elsewhere.
