Extension: AD&D Options and House Rules

[Doomsword]

Just wanted to quickly touch base and let you know that, yes, I'm still around and still have updates in the works. I should be able to make progress this week, having just finished an RPG product I was working on (well, finished enough for now). I'll look through what you've posted and get back with you soon.

The extension is called AD&D Options and House Rules, it now creates an error, especially with thieves skills. This is what the error shows, members of Fantasy Grounds told me to come here and ask, and show you what the error looks like, thank you for your help and time.

[ERROR] window: no vertical anchor defined for control (stat) in windowclass (char_skill_editor_main) for all the thief skills?

Welcome to the FG forums! When reporting errors with an extension please report in the forum thread for the extension - this will get the direct attention of the extension developer and get you a more efficient resolution. I've moved this post to the extension related thread.

Thank you, Trenloe. I'm on it, just been swamped in releasing RPG materials. For anyone else with problems related to my stuff, feel free to hit me up on Discord also (link in sig). That helps me get to these faster, and I'll update the thread as necessary.

The problematic area that is causing the error WytchKraft is reporting on is related to <template name="cycler_skill_type">
in tempalte_char_adnd.xml

I toyed with adding anchors but ultimately gave up as it was causing alignment issues in other areas of the character sheet and/or throwing more errors..
I commented out the template section as I am not using the addition of d6 provided by the addon in that section for my game and it isn't dropping errors any longer.

Very helpful, thank you. Still haven't dug into it to see where it's at after updates to the stuff it depends on, but that's tonight's mission. Updates to this can break functionality while used with my OSRIC ruleset. That makes it to where I can't just update this without considering OSRIC. Best effort incoming....

[Doomsword]

I just pushed out an update for this. It should fix the bugs that have been reported and a couple of others that I found. Check your options after updating and make sure they're set the way you want. Lots of stuff was improved in options handling, data updates, and matrices for anyone using those. It's been brought into parity with CoreRPG and 2E updates, where necessary.

Please let me know if you find any issues or if there are unresolved bugs. There's stuff in here that I'm working on that I have yet to release. The bugs that the update fixes were big enough to warrant getting this out ASAP. Thanks for your patience. I have tested several things with both 2E and OSRIC, so I expect the update to work reasonably well.

Currently working on getting OSRIC updates out for those who use this extension with that ruleset.

@Paul, can you give me a rundown of everything you want to see implemented? Some of it is done/fixed already. I have the crit fixed in unreleased OSRIC, and need to do the same with the extension. I can have that out tomorrow. I'd like to address other issues, as well, but they're hard to keep track of. Thank you.

PS - this goes for anyone else, as well.

Thank you. Found a typo in there. Should be fixed after you update again.
