Feat to modify Ability score
Is it possible to code a feat to increase an ability score as in the below, I'm not sure which field to put the code in so I'm being general in my example.
Feat
-----
Extra Strength
Strength +2

You would do it as an effect "STR: +2". don't include the quotation marks. You can deactivate the effect as needed when not using the feat by clicking the green "on" effect button until it shows "off".

As far as i know, you can't use effect to directly modify stats on your character sheet. Effects could be used as modifiers on your tests.

You can't put FG effects within the text of a Starfinder feat record. They need to be applied to the actor in the Combat Tracker.
Some information is available in the Starfinder effects Wiki around approaches to having the effect application in the actions tab of a PC - but they'll still have to apply the effect each time the PC is added to the CT: https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassia...and-Conditions
Plus, as has been noted above, effects don't change the base stat on the PC sheet, they are applied to relevant rolls.
You may just want to handle this by manually adjusting the PC strength - maybe use CTRL+mouse-wheel to change the ability and show the modifier via a bubble.Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.
