MoreCore Ruleset

[damned]

Hi guys,

Is there a way I can get MoreCore rolls to publish the description of the roll in the chat screen? See screenshot - https://prnt.sc/rky5o3

Thanks in advance.

You would need to extend the /pbta roll
You might find some inspiration on how to output to chat in the Player Agency extension.

Hi Damned,

Question: In the Combat Tracker, there's the Attack icon and the Rolls icon. What's the difference between these two and how are they supposed to be used?

Thanks for taking the time.

Early versions of MoreCore did not have Rolls. Rolls are probably the primary feature of the ruleset.
Before Rolls you could write attack and damage strings that just used a simple dice string
Short Sword 1d20+2
Short Sword 1d6+1
And they would use targeting so could report who you were attacking (but not do any hit/miss calculation) and I dont recall if they could apply damage - I think not.
I wouldnt recommend that you use Attacks. Rolls do so much more.
They are still there because they are in use by some people.

I have a simple question, one that I was hoping would have been answered on the first page of this thread, but... no such luck.

What do I have to do in order to download the actual MoreCore ruleset?

I see links for various extensions to the MoreCore ruleset for once (if) I already have it, but absolutely no guidance as to where the ruleset itself would be located.

My gaming group and I made the mistake of purchasing several licenses of Fantasy Grounds, hoping to be able to continue weekly gaming sessions despite the ongoing current events.

Unfortunately, the base program is nowhere near the level of functionality that I would have expected it to have 'out of the box'.

I expected it to be able to cross reference its own databases in order to auto-calculate feats, abilities, etc when applied to the virtual character sheet. Barring that, I expected it to have a robust enough character form to make it possible to self-monitor and edit out the various modifiers that no longer apply, with the DM having oversight of the various modifiers through the sheet.

In searching through the forums, and checking the various Youtube tutorials, it seems that MoreCore might get us somewhere close to a workable solution- at least as far as making the character form being much more customizable to start with.

If anyone could tell me how/where to obtain the actual MoreCore ruleset (and not just all of the various extensions for it), I would very much appreciate it.

Secondary to that, if anyone could point me in the direction of basic information on the creating extensions (such as how things are organized), I would also be appreciative. - I'm not adverse to putting some work into it, but I need a frame of reference to work from.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome OSdirk

>>What do I have to do in order to download the actual MoreCore ruleset?
Try going to the bottom left of your screen and changing the theme away from mobile - try FG responsive

>>My gaming group and I made the mistake of purchasing several licenses of Fantasy Grounds, hoping to be able to continue weekly gaming sessions despite the ongoing current events.

If you are unhappy with your purchase SmiteWorks offer a 30day refund policy

So you are expecting a full blown graphical IDE that understands the 8000 odd RPG systems that are out there?

all pak and ext files are also zip files.
extract CoreRPG and a layered ruleset like 5E and an extension and have a look at how they work.

I know how you feel. I had to jump through the same hurdles last week when I got started. Anyway I hope the following helps:

Download rule set - https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...reCore-Ruleset
See first pinned post, right at the bottom. Download the .Pak file.

Stick the .pak file in the rule sets folder. You’ll find it under the SmiteWorks main folder. Start up FG, host a new game, and you should see the MoreCore ruleset listed.

Hi Damned.

Found a bug in the character sheet last night.

When I click on the star icon under an attribute, it automatically creates new lines - not just one, but 8 or more per click. When this starts happening randomly, I can't even edit a stat or roll anymore because I can't access the data without creating new rolls. Please help

I cant replicate this qdwag and Ive no other reports of it happening.

I was thinking, it might have been because I used a sheet that someone else had created for Dungeon World. They might have done something to the sheet that messed things up.

But good to know. Cheers mate.

It could be a bug in Unity that hasnt been reported.
I dont think its a MoreCore issue.
Reboot your FG and see if it continues.
