5E Advanced Effects (items, npcs, characters)

[MrDDT]

I've mostly purchased SilentRuin's extension because I needed (wanted) to have an extension that allowed me to have a cursed item that could no longer be unequipped by the user. Equipped Effects does that (among other things). While I prefer coding the effects directly on the items (using Celestian's extension) it does not offer the ability to managed 'cursed' items.

You can do curse effects but the players could unequip it. Also to keep the info hidden from the players you would also need to leave it unid'd, which clues them in too.

I like both for diff reasons. I find Advanced effects is great for items to easy change stuff. While equipped effects I like for things where I might want to change it on the fly without the players knowing, or cursed or other things of that nature.

Celestian, I am hosting 5e in FGC, and have only the Advanced Effects Extension running. The Extension will allow an effect on a Weapon only if the ActionOnly bubble is UN-checked, allowing the effect on all weapons.
I have not tried to use this for a while because the extension sometimes would work and others it would not.

I noticed there was an update just a few hours ago, and the only thing updated was the 2e.
Now I notice, when switching to the actions tab, weapons have no data in the ATK nor DMG boxes, and double-clicking them gives the error message....

****Script Error: [string "campaign/scripts/char_weapon_adnd.lua"]:105: attempt to index global 'CharWeaponManager' (a nil value)****

That's all I can tell you.

Thanks for the work you are doing!

Updated a few hours ago? If you mean the github then thats testing code. Stick with the one downloadable on the first post here. Also, if CharWeaponManager is missing then something is seriously wrong with your copy of the 5e ruleset.

I think he talks about FGC updated a couple of hours ago. I’ll test all this tomorrow but I haven’t seen any issue yesterday while testing.

I can't replicate any issues. Testing with current version of FGC/5e with current rev of AE here, it works fine as far as I can see.
