5E Advanced Effects (items, npcs, characters)

Yeah, I've noticed you're stretched thin across way too many extensions to fix. Sorry, I didn't mean it as a jab at you or anyone else, it was just a moment of frustration at the thought of all the temporary solutions I'll have to implement for the time being

I went with turning off the action only and turning off the effect in the CT as needed.

On the Grim Press Discord server, there's an alternative approach by placing a dash (-) in front of the weapons name in the rffect. It will only fire when the weapon or power is used. The name of weapon and effect must match. The dash is only in the effect.

For example:
Effect: -Vicious Shortsword; DMG: 2d6 critical
Weapon name: Vicious Shortsword

This requires Generic Actions ext.
If you want it to automatically equip on the named item, you would also want Equipped Effects ext.

EDIT: Looking closer; I realized this was AE and BCE conflict. No idea how this worked before; since the same issue existed in the original code, as far as I can tell.

@nephranka, @Lo Zeno,

I responded in Discord. It's working for me on my simple test case.

Just pushed a new build of both AE and BCE that should address. Please run a new Check for Updates.

That was way faster than I expected, really appreciated!

Just letting you all know that the UI on the PF1e ruleset is covering most of the Combat tab on the PC sheet.

I'm not sure what this field did in the original implementation that was any different than using normal spell effects, so if the easy solution is to just hide the field in the UI, I think that'd work.

Thanks!

I think this is due to the fixes MW pushed yesterday which have moved the AC frame to the bottom of the Combat tab. The Advanced Effects frame now needs to be anchored to the 'acframe' instead of the 'attackframe'. I did a quick fix by updating lines 13 through 15 of classes_pfrpg.xml as follows:

<top parent="acframe" anchor="bottom" relation="relative" offset="0" />
<left parent="acframe" />
<right parent="acframe" />

That seems to work for me.
