Better Combat Effects

[Drogo210]

The function EXPIREADD applies the effect twice.

I Have also noticed that

SAVEADD: [effect] Add Effect from custom effects list on a failed ongoing save.

SAVEADDP: [effect] Add Effect from custom effects list on a passed ongoing save.

as for example 'Petrification Ray; restrained; SAVEE: DEX 16 (M)(R); SAVEADDP: Become Petrified', roll the save when the effect is applied (same of SAVEA). I am not sure if this is right function...If it is, they may be helpful to code some spell but would be possible to add an effect that does trigger with ongoing save, only and not when the effect is added?

I love the effects you have working in this extension!
I tried your Frightful Presence effect (Drag and drop from the effects that come with the MOD) and it rolls at the end of turn, as expected, but it does not remove on a successful save (It has the SAVEE command in it). This was with no other extensions running.

Not sure if I screwed something up or not
Thanks

That is odd. I looked into this a bit and FG seems to be calling removeEffect twice. Might be a FG bug but I'll try a work around

I'll take a look. I had a similar report and I think this is the same bug as one on my list to fix this week

Can you post the effect string here just to make sure we are on the same page?

This has nothing to do with BCE, this has to do with FGU.

If you using a ranged attack from the NPC sheet, it will not understand ranged/melee damage.

It's only after it's parsed that it does it.

You will notice that the NPC sheet will NEVER (On the NPCs turn or not) give you a ranged effect in chat. It' not until after it's parsed that it has the show ranged, this is standard FGU.

You can tell it's a ranged damage, it will say "DAMAGE (R)" whereas any attack from the NPC sheet, will say "DAMAGE"

I submitted a FG Bug report on this issue.

I drag and dropped from here.

Add a (R) to the end of that and it will remove it
Frightful Presence; Frightened; SAVEE: WIS 16 (R)

Version update 2.21

Couple of bug fixes, I'll try to get to EXPIREADD later this week

Fixed - SAVEADD* was rolling when added
Fixed - DMGA SAVEA and REGENA where not playing nice with each other

I absolutely love this extension and have found so many uses for it and crafting gimmick weapons when combining this mod with Advanced Effects.

One small problem I'm currently having is I want to make a weapon pair. when you attack a target with either weapon it passes a temporary flag to that target. lets call this flag "Effect1".
Both weapons will also add a hidden effect if they attack a target that has already acquired the flag this turn from the OPPOSITE weapon. the example i have here is "SDMGADDT: Effect1; IF: CUSTOM(Effect2): produce result"

The problem I've had is that attacking with ANY weapon passes the flags from BOTH weapons, instead of a specific flag for a specific weapon. applying ActionOnly doesn't seem to affect the outcome
