MoreCore Ruleset

[damned]

A couple of issues. Players reported problems moving tokens. They'd drag their tokens to where they wanted to move, but I couldn't approve the move. I could manually grab the token and slide it to where it goes, because I'd see a green square where they had indicated they wanted to move.

Also, is it possible to get a wound status (X column) of dead, or can we customize those too?

Can you give me more info on the Move thing?
FGU or FGC?
There is no code in MoreCore that should affect that - its all CoreRPG afaik.

The second issue is not so straight forward.
The health bar is very simplistic - it has undamaged, 1-9 (or 1-10) damage and greater than that damage
It actually doesnt look at how many HPs you have - it only looks at damage.

NPCs have their token in the CT replaced with a Skull when they die.

I'm having an issue with /rollunder in MoreCore. It may be user error? In which case I'm sorry in advance.

I'm trying to code skills and such in for Mothership. It uses 1d100, and players need to roll under their skills. The problem I'm running into is that the code is not just rolling 1d100. It's rolling 1d100 AND 1d10.

A secondary problem I'm running into is, and this is where I think the user error is, I can't seem to get it to add the referenced Stat to Biology to roll. (p1 + a1, in this case, doesn't work):

Thoughts? Thanks.

Hi benightedfae

Im guessing you are running under FGU?
They changed the d100 dice between FGC and FGU.

Try crack open the ruleset
go to /desktop/scripts/morecore_damned_rollunder.lua
and remove the following lines (87/88/89/90)

		-- For d100 rolls, we also need to add a d10 dice for the ones place
		if sSize == "100" then
			table.insert(rRoll.aDice, "d10");
		end

and then close FG and relaunch.

You cant do Math if the roller hasnt been expressly written for it.
The rolls have to match the required format exactly.

I think Superteddy57 did an extension for Mothership but maybe it wasnt released?

If you can tell me in great detail how the rolls for mothership should work Ill try and write you one (better yet you could write one and share it back into MoreCore?)

[benightedfae]

Thank you, I'm savvy enough to be able to edit that file.

I'm not, however, savvy enough to be able to write that code. I did do a search on the forum but didn't turn any up, so I guess it hasn't been released. If I can write something succinct enough, I may send it to you, but I know you're like, THE GUY, for MoreCore and I'd hate to take your time. My goal is eventually to be able to write my own code, but I'm having a terrible time starting because MoreCore is frankly above my coding grade, and I haven't found a ruleset that's built on top of CoreRPG that I both A) know and B) is easy enough for me to dissect to learn to backwards code.

Thanks for the quick reply!

[damned]

Write me the detailed description of the roll then, bearing in mind you are translating it for MoreCore/FG and Ill write when I have some time.

[benightedfae]

I appreciate that, and I will. And just so you know, deleting that code broke /rollunder completely for me. MoreCore still loaded fine, but /rollunder wouldn't do anything at all.

I just tested it here and its working ok for me.

FGC. It's intermittent..it's almost like the map can't keep up with the movement of the token. I tried it this morning and it worked flawlessly, while yesterday while having someone connected it didn't work at all.

Hey guys,

I've just noticed something weird. When I roll dice into the chatbox, then drag the result to "Wounds" in the CT, the values in the box get replaced by the die roll, instead of adding to it. Can someone confirm this bug?

Thats how fantasy grounds works.
Only dice that are of Damage Type will interact in the way that you are expecting.
