Hi @damned,
Since I'm translating a bit of everything (I own almost all of the Italian edition) I'll let you know what I found:

Core Rulebook Player >> Clockwork Ancestry
1. Tables section lack of link to tables Appearance and Background
2. I am not pretty sure cause I am translating to Italian so I have Italian Original Edition as starting point but it seems to me that Talents Failing Magic, Wind the Clock and Object Form are from Ghosts in Machines additional Module (but I could definitely be wrong and so I apologize in advance if that were the case)

Core Rulebook Player >> Orc Ancestry
1. Tables section lack of link to tables Personality

Ruleset >> Ancestry Window
1. It is resizable but control do not follow the width (which would be very convenient for single-line fields). I attach an Image.

By the way there are restricted word you use to parse automation/effect so I avoid to translate also them and loose the "effects"???

Thank you in advance and have a great day..

[damned]

Thanks redba!

Ancestry shoudl not be horizontally resizable - I shall take that away from you!
Will get back to you on the others.

Hello damned! Thanks for all the great work. We just played our first session in this ruleset and everything seemed to run smoothly, but when we tried to start our second encounter, none of our players seem able to perform automated attacks from their sheets. NPCs are able to attack just fine, but none of the PCs are. It worked fine earlier in the session. Here's the type of error we keep getting:

Our GM is not running any extensions apart from the base ruleset. Client's been updated as well.

​Edit: This has been solved!

Hi Damon sorry the session got messed up.
As we add support for more automation over time it often requires updates to the data.
We just realised recently that items in Parcels didnt update when we updated the master Items list
What was happening here is that there was no minstrength value in the armour in the parcel scored from the slavers

We will have to dice back into all (30+) adventures and rebuild the parcels to make sure.

If it happens again in the meantime - open the equipped Armour and add a minstrength of 0 if it is missing.
