    Effects: Capitalizing any condition in a list breaks the entire list

    If I make an effect like this to protect against all the beholder's effects, it works correctly and says "target immune" in the chatbox:
    Testing Immunity; removedText: removed; IMMUNE:charmed, paralyzed, frightened, restrained, incapacitated, unconscious, petrified, grappled
    Adding any unsupported condition, such as "sleep", makes it so there is no longer working immunity to any of the conditions:

    Also, capitalizing or misspelling any of them breaks it.
    I would point out that the conditions are all capitalized if you view them in the effects management window, and in the list of Beholder's powers in the combat tracker, and when they are applied to a character, and in the FG wiki list of supported conditions, yet capitalizing any one of them in the immunity list of conditions breaks the entire list.

    I''m not sure if you are just making an observation or not. Yes, only supported conditions are allowed; yes misspelling will not work; and yes all of the conditions must be lower case as noted in the Wiki.

    In your example you have SomeOtherText followed by a colon. FG is trying to interpret that as an effect which of course doesn't exist and so will ignore it and whatever else follows it.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Actually, it correctly ignores the someOtherText. That section is separated from the rest by a semicolon.
    It's adding "sleep" that broke the whole immune list, as did "Unconscious" with capital U before that.

    Actually, this is from the wiki:

    I stand corrected.
