Problems / Bugs with BRP?

[devinlc]

I did and still get the error. Let me create a new campaign and see what happens.

Started a new Vanilla BRP campaign with no extensions. Got the error message.

I note that the previous poster was also getting the same messages but then said "never mind". I wonder what happened to them?

BTW, I also get the white on white issue the other person mentioned.

Did a bit more poking. I notice that the header of the CT seems a bit messed up. That might be the cause of the error. If you look at the attached picture and look carefully at the very upper leftmost part of the CT, you can see what is basically black letters all jumbled together. These seem to be the rest of the headers for the CT that should be alongside Name and Init. If I mouse over that jumble, in fact, I get a tooltip explaining Strike Ranks.

Also, you can see the white on white on the names of the PCs in the upper left of the screen.

I believe it's the theme with the combination of the extensions you are using. Here is the desktop with no errors and how the CT should look when opened.

Weird. As I said, I created a new campaign with no extensions and no theme and still had the issue, but I will poke into it more and see what I can see.

I can suggest deleting the ruleset in your rulesets folder and then doing another update to download a fresh copy. This can be accessed from the folder icon on the first screen you see when starting FG. I would suggest only the ruleset and no other files.

Thanks. Fixed.

I need to remember that!

Just pushed an update that should address the Wood theme nameplate coloring issue. Please run a new Check for Updates.

When you drop a skill that has a base chance that is a formula (such as dodge) on the character sheet, its base chance is not calculated.

To replicate:

Change the dodge skill in the table "Skills" in scripts/manager_gameline.lua so that dodge reads:

["Dodge"] = { Base="DEX*2", Category="Physical", Untrained=true },

Now dodge is no longer a default skill.

Reload the ruleset. Create a new character. Drag the dodge skill onto the character sheet. The base skill value is empty. If you reload the ruleset, you will force a re-calculation and the skill value will be properly calculated.

This is a problem to me because I'm adapting an extension so that all skill base chances are formulas, so when I drag skills to the character sheet the base chance remains at zero.

Thanks for the report. I'll have a look at it when I get a chance.
