hello! I was hoping to get some help re bug i have encountered. i had posted in the discord but i fear it was lost due to all the posting ( i know this is not sexy as video map layers urls) . i just wanted to place here so i can find it easier... what you are trying to do exactly? Made armor traits to affect skills misc modifier what the result was and/or what steps you took? trait appears to work except when applying the misc modifier Is the issue repeatable? yes what OS you are using? windows 10 home what rules system are you using? old fart 3.5 what version of the software are you using? 3.7.5 please see attached
When you installed 3.7.5, did you do so as a clean install into a new folder? this and the huge html dump that comes along with it, makes me wonder if there are not other issues going on? There's nothing else in the log however, except that massive html dump.
More directly to the question (admittedly my D&D 3.5 is a bit rusty, were it I would have attacked this slightly differently and gone for adjusting the Attribute modifier for STR and DEX rather than all the individual skills. Also, this is going to be cumbersome on the system implemented this way. Every single token is going to have to be checked and adjusted (skills adjusted) every single time any event (tokens moved, attacks, etc etc) happens indefinitely as you have this written. Any reason not to adjust STR and DEX mods rather than individual skill rolls, since those take the attribute bonus as a modifier? it'd be easier to manage than all those skills and less weight on the engine..
So, yeah it looks as though SKills are not taking the Misc modification from a feature/Trait into account. @owlbear said he spoke with you and has not as of yet found a solution for this, but he is working on it.
Hey Templar12. Didn't we get this up and running already? (I'm digging through my sample flows for the skill one...) As to the log error, while odd, it mostly just looks like something on your system told D20PRO, "No loading web page for you!" And so it didn't. We'll dig into why, however, that seems unrelated to the skills issue!
FYI -> re: Owlbear comment: fixed the skill thing. yeah... the skill mods were not being applied. calculated, but not being applied. fix is in for the next beta release.
Okay! So found the bug with the skill penalty, embarrassingly. When we built the feature system we stubbed in the skill modifiers and never unstubbed that code. I just updated it so it matches up with the current edition of the feature/flow system and here's the results: So skill penalties are being generated by a flow (see below). The -5 to Climb and Jump are visible in the skill usage panel on the right. And you can see the results in the game log on the left. the first two are the very successful attempts to climb without penalty appling. The last one... not so much. I also popped open the "Penalty" box which is actually designed to let you toggle what skills, by stat usage type, would get a usage penalty. While this isn't necessary when using the flow system. It is worth noting that this system exists and can be used on a per-creature basis. I'll also look into a clean way to let you set the penalty types for armor via flows. As to setting the penalty via script, I'm working on a solution for that. In the meantime, you're current plan of targeting the skills individually should work when the next beta rolls out. We'll iterate on this quickly so we can get some of these niggly bits pushed into production sooner than later!
Okay. I've got a script for you as well. I've added this to the default scripts for inclusion in the next round of builds as well: Usage in a flow is shown on the bottom. the example files are attached below (in the zip)
Well, this functionality was why I was excited about the traits library. I liked when characters don, remove,change armor that it could have same ability effects like when you equip a weapon and its options appear in your Attack tab.
Thank you very much!!! I also got Kril's message about posting preferences in Discord. Will continue to do so in future. Apologies if I broke norms.
no worries at all and you didn't break anything. We're just trying to get as much information as possible (in a common way) in order to offer the best help and understand the situation.
