Paizo has a blog article post by the lead designer specifically on poisons and how they work since they were explained somewhat poorly in the core books.

He covered some of the key functions including when the target makes their saves (see bullet point 3)

https://paizo.com/community/blog/v57...-FAQ-on-Poison

I imagine since this wasn't scraped directly from the PDFs is the reason it didn't make it into AoN

(Sorry I'm not hyperlinking, posting on my phone atm)

That is a much better link. Thanks!
I have added this to the issues list as an enhancement: [13]

Awesome, well I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Keep up the good work, just like with skyrim, FG mods make it so much better haha

if you want to have the roll at any point during your turn (this is turn, as in, initiative step, not round, so it's only going to be edge case for immediate actions)

enable manual rolls

then it'll be hovering as a roll to be made, in the manual roller window, you as GM can then tell the player to roll a d20, and enter it's value accordingly

if you dont like manual rolls, turn it off, the next initiative step:D

EDIT: If it helps, you can see how I am generating this string here (the generateSaveString() function). This string is only used for display/readability purposes, so it doesn't have to conform exactly to this format (it just has to be readable to the user).

Regarding "Poison", perhaps (if the name would otherwise be just "Poison" and there is information in the NPC Field) you can combine NPC Name with "Poison" so it says "Aranea Poison"?

Sure, I can concatenate those two. Looking at primary and secondary effect of poisons, (for the two example poisons) I'd think they should be the same. Is that not what you are expecting?

It's a rarely used statblock attribute. Look at poison oak for an example of what a primary/secondary effect poison looks like.
Typically, secondary effect should be empty.
You might want to add another example to your test set. One that has a variable onset (dice rather than fixed onset). Filth Fever is a good one.

• moved maladies button higher in health section on PC sheet.
• modified code for use with feb 16th 2021 ruleset updates
• improved code in a few places
• fix for potential script error when maladies expired

still using same the same maladies.mod library?

Yes, no changes needed to modules.
It's looking like Sudain's getting close to having creature poisons added though. Then my auto-linking code in Upgrade NPC Actions comes into play for real :D

Hello bmos, Great extension! Just downloaded and started playing with it. This saves a lot of time.

Question/Idea: would it be possible to calculate (roll) and output the actual damage to the chat window message and format it so instead of:
FAILURE EFFECT:
PRIMARY: 1d2 Con

It could show:
FAILURE; Bloodbrain Venom PRIMARY; CON: -2; (or whatever the roll was)

That would allow that line to be dragged right onto the combat tracker from the chat window. If it could incorporate the "STACK" command, even better.

Not sure if that would be a lot of work, but I'd be happy to put some time in to help. Either way, thanks for another amazing extension!

EDITED: Fixed the "CON: -2" to the proper effect format.
Also, even without the STACK, after the initial application, you could just add the resulting damage to the number already there.

Well it's more like I'm failing my managerial accounting course badly so my coping mechanism is rather than buckle down and study more; I procrastinate and do something else. >.<

It should add a bunch of poisons/disease/infestation definitions (400+ IIRC). It's not perfect, and so it'll probably require some spot-checking (I'm doing my best to ensure I type caps for things that will require attention like a DUPLICATE entry (which I still have no clue as to why it happened) and manual addition of maladies that the script missed. But 80-90% of them out there is a good start. I don't have an ETA yet. Depends on how badly I do on the next homework assignment....

Also, never hire me to do your accounting books.
