+AP Weapon Mod doesnt work

[Lazer]

Hello friends,

I need some help concerning weapon mods. In my scenario, there are different ammo types, so I wanted to give the players armor-piercing ammunition via weapon mods. The problem is that the mod isn't working. It appears to be activated, but it doesn't add any AP modifier in the Combat Tracker (see attached PDF).

Does anyone have an idea what I did wrong?

Edited: I also created this as an effect, and the effect works, but it doesn’t function as a weapon mod.

The target must have armor for the AP to show up. If the target does not have armor, AP doesn't display because it doesn't apply.
Second, the effect need only be in the modification's Notes. That's the line below the mod name.

Also, add a greater than symbol to the effect, like so:

[>AP +1]

That makes the effect apply only to that weapon. Otherwise, it applies the effect to all attacks.
Great for an item that improves AP on all weapons the character uses, but not for your use case.

Hello Sir, and thanks for your reply. Sadly, the weapon mod still has no effect. weapon-mod-desnt-work-2.jpg

If I just apply a custom effect to the character via drag and drop, it works.Drag_Drop-Effect-works.jpg

I had everything locked, and the mod was activated during testing and the target has Armor.

This doesn't look right.
The top left picture shows the effect is on the same line as the mod name. It should be on the line below it.
The two left pictures don't match. If you put the effect in the top line, the bottom left picture should have an empty Notes and "APDS [>AP +1]" as the title.
The bottom left picture looks correct, and has the > prefix, but the effect in the top right picture doesn't match.
Your mod picture matches mine, but the weapon mod doesn't.
Something is out of sync. I'm not sure what.
Recreate another weapon from scratch, check if it behaves the same.

Thank you so much, Sir. I deleted and recreated the mod, and now it works perfectly! Sorry for all the inconvenience.

No problem. It could be that something wonky was happening. I know to be on the lookout for it in case it happens again.
