MoreCore Ruleset

So there's no .getColor, or .setColor type function? Could of sworn the Castles and Crusades sheet did that... Maybe I can try to tear that one apart to see what's actually going on.

You should totally pull apart other rulesets!
use the Find In Files feature of Notepad++ to search unpacked rulesets.
Start with what you know - eg if you find somewhere that does this search on the text.
That will likely give you a string_resource
Then search on the string_resource name
etc

I have a field that requires several values from other fields, to calculate. I'd like to have the calculation on that one field, instead of having to repeat it on every other field, which would make changes so much easier.
Is there a way to, say put that formula in an onInit function in the calculated field, then in the other fields, in the onValueChange, force the calculating field to re-initialize?
Or maybe another solution would be to have the calculation in a function, and just call that function in each of the source fields? If so, do you have a tutorial on creating functions?

Okay, for the first part, I'm just trying to get one of the fields to recalculate the target when it's updated.

Here's what I have in the function:

function calculateAbilityMod(nodeChar, strMod, numCurrent)

	local nResult =0;
	
	if numCurrent < 10 then
		nResult = math.ceil((nScore - 10) / 2);
	elseif numCurrent > 10 then
		nResult = math.floor((nScore - 10) / 2);
	else
		nResult = 0;
	end

	nodeChar.getChild(strMod).setValue(nResult);
	
	return true;
	
end

Here's what I have in one of the triggers:

function onValueChanged()
	--values passed> nodeChar, strMod, numCurrent
	local nodeChar = window.getDatabaseNode();
	local strMod = "numStrengthMod";
	local numCurrent = nodeChar.getChild("numStrengthCurrent").getValue();
	
	charManager.calculateAbilityMod(nodeChar, strMod, numCurrent);
end

I don't think I'm handling the strMod value properly... I need this value so the function knows which stat modifier to update...

According to the developer of Ruleset Wizard, there is a .setColor and .getColor (as well as .getFontColor and .setFontColor) method for labels, but I can't seem to get them to work...

Probably better to ask coding questions in the Workshop sub-forum - you'll also get more people who can answer looking at your questions in that forum, and you won't take up this MoreCore thread with generic coding questions.

Good advice. Thanks!

What language was that code written in? Not that knowing it would make me understand it, but it does make me curious about what people are doing. My non-skill at coding is dissuading me from doing the alterations or additions needed to bring my ideas of systems to use to life.

The Side bar has disappeared when I use Morecore after the last update. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
