Problem with effects and [EXPIRES]
Hi all, I'm running into a problem when applying non-expiring buffs. For example, always-active fire resistance from a magic cloak.
I've created a power and effect for the cloak, as simple as can be: RESIST: 5 fire, SELF/ALL, no expiration.
However, when it gets added to the combat tracker, it shows up as RESIST: 5 fire [EXPIRES]. And doesn't work at all. However, if I as the GM go in and manually delete the [EXPIRES], the resistance starts working properly.
In the case of a power having multiple effects, such as RESIST: 10 cold; RESIST: 10 fire, it shows up in the tracker as RESIST: 10 cold; RESIST: 10 fire [EXPIRES], and while the cold resistance works, the fire resistance doesn't. (Until I delete the [EXPIRES] part, at which point it functions properly.)
It's not the end of the world, as I can always just make the effect have an ENC expiration and re-apply them at the start of each encounter. But I was just hoping someone would know why this is happening, or if it needs to be reported as a bug? Does [EXPIRES] always just make effects...not work?

It's a bug in the ruleset code. It will be fixed in v3.2.0.

So, you effect in the combat tracker is: RESIST: 5 psychic
If this is the case and still isn't working, please post a screenshot showing the combat tracker (with the effect applied) and the result of an attack from that character (with the effect on them) which doesn't work.Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

Use all capitals for RESIST
You have to use the exact effect labelling as detailed in the effects Wiki page: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...php/4E_EffectsPrivate Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.
