Do you want it to auto-generate your character from your thoughts too? ;)

seriously though, that is a future part of the plan, which is why skill bonuses were broken out like they are...(that may not be the final solution). It just takes a lot of time to implement a lot of those types of automation changes (and we get arguments from others in the community that don't want that kind of automation, so which way should we go?) as well as implement major changes for things like AA3, COM, etc.
I was hoping it might be in the cards eventually. I love that the skills tab breaks it out like it does, much easier to keep track of complex systems that way.
I'm totally new to FGU, so forgive the question if it seems simple to veterans, but how to you use these? FGU isn't exactly the easiest UI to learn from scratch, but I'm getting there! :)
I imported the files as users and I see all the created skills/feats/weapon crits/etc in the spells tab, but how do I actually use them during a session?
I'm going to use the various class xmls as templates for my players, so I get that part. How do the weapon crit effects get applied and how do I copy them to each user? Do I have to re-write anything for my players?
Drag and drop the spells it into the spell section (it won't work on the actions tab) on the PC sheet (make sure you set up a spellclass first).
My group and I do all our coding effects for class abilities in the Actions tab. now that they have coded that tab to recognize class abilities, it is so much easier than it was before.
Thats super interesting, Bloodright. Do you have these available for other classes?
I do, i make them as needed while we go through our campaign.
currently my group consists of a Mystic, Envoy, Vanguard, Mechanic (Prototype weapon), and an Operative (Ghost)

Thanks for posting this. It is very helpful.
I'm using FGU, and am unable to configure the actions panel as you have. For the Operatives edge, for example, I can create the ability class, but am unable to add the effects as you have. Here is an image of where I'm at - the magnifying glass beside "Combat Maneuver" does absolutely nothing. What am I missing?

I would assume it's the same as FGC:
Right click (on CM) - Add Spell Action - Add Effect
