Yes it is a Roll and Rolls need to be added in the rolls section.
I was going to remove the Attacks section in favour of Rolls as Rolls can do everything Attacks do and much more ofc. However a small number of extensions make use of Attacks so it stays.

Thanks for confirming. Something I've noticed with the default MoreCore theme now that I've started to remove entries in NPC's Attacks boxes in favor of using CT Rolls...The "Attacks" label text remains despite nothing being in that text box, and the "Special" text overwrites it making that label unreadable.

Ive updated NPCs to fix Special/Attacks display.
Ive added Type to NPCs and this works with the NPC Campaign Tool List View as per kronovans request.

Updated in the Forge.

Many thanks damned for adding the Type field. I edited some of my NPCs using the new type box for factions and it's made a world of difference in being able to quickly sort them based on faction.

I'm adapting a tabletop game where some rare characters have a Regenerate feature that allows them to heal Health/Hit Points. The amount they heal is always a determined amount in increments of 10, so Regeneration 10, Regeneration 20, etc.

I've been trying to use the HealMe dice roll as described on the MoreCore Basic Manual webpage using the following syntax: /healme 1d0+10. The CT Roll does display the correct icon for the roll button. However, when I make the roll this error is being listed in the log window:

[2/17/2022 4:20:16 PM] [ERROR] Script execution error: [string "scripts/manager_custom_healme.lua"]:138: bad argument #2 to 'tonumber' (base out of range)"

So if I'm reading that correctly, the ActorManger.getActor function no longer exists and should be replaced with ActorManager.resolveActor. My question is how?
I'm guessing I'd need to create an extension to do this. I remember creating a Savage World extension that initialized (or is the correct term instantiated) the ActorManager, in order to be able to replace the default Arcane Backgrounds. Would the required setup scripting for this be similar?
And before I even dive down that rabbit hole, is there a newer undocumented MoreCore roll that replaces the HealMe roll?

If you look at the ActorManager.getActor(sActorType, v) call, it simply passes to ActorManager.resolveActor(v). You would just replace your getActor calls with resolveActor calls with one less parameter.

That stuff is part of the CoreRPG base layer.

Many thanks for the reply Moon Wizard - I'll check into it.

[damned]

ill need to update that roll. ill do it over the weekend.

[damned]

Uploading a new build now...

[kronovan]

Yeah...I see that you fixed the /healme roll damned - awesome stuff!

The biggest challenge I'm currently having is trying to make sense of the display of the Health and Defence on the Combat Tracker. I get very inconsistent results for those, with more often then naught the Health and Defense columns not getting displayed correctly for either the GM or players. Sometimes the Health and Defence headers are displayed but nothing for those 2 are listed for the NPCs. Other times those 2 columns aren't listed at all. Meanwhile the Wound column is always displayed correctly. Yet at other times -albeit more rare- all 3 columns are correctly configured for both the GM and players.

I might very well being doing something wrong, because TBH I'm confused by the Health and Defense columns only having the 2 settings of "Off" and "GM Only"? Shouldn't those also have a 3rd setting of "GM and Player" like the Wounds column does? For my latest tabletop miniatures adaptation, the player being able to see Health and Defence is important, as knowledge of those strongly influences tactical decisions for combat. I'm just not sure what I should be setting those columns to in Options, to arrive at such a visible setup?
