Feedback Thread - D&D 5E (2024) Ruleset Updates

[SilentRuin]

... It checks the default rules setting you have set for your campaign ...

Where is that?

Where is that?

It's not on test yet. It's in an internal dev build. Doug said he would let us know when its on test.

You will be able to access it like this:

local sOptionGAVE = OptionsManager.getOption("GAVE");
local bIs2024 = (sOptionGAVE == "2024");
if bIs2024 then
    -- do something
end

Theme Core and Theme Core Dark are throwing warnings. There maybe more of the pre-packaged that do the same

I'm going to update a few exts with this. Any ETA on when we will see it on test so we can test?

We are shooting for tomorrow. We are sorry it is so late. We are still working on some key elements for the character wizard.

Some new upcoming changes:

• 2024 Classes now include an item list for starting equipment
• 2024 backgrounds now include an item list for starting equipment and wealth
• The old equipment fields are still there and are auto-populated based on the item lists
• Legacy starting equipment remains the same
• Character Wizard warnings for mixing and matching legacy and 2024 D&D rules

We are trying to put in some automation for the last item as well, but not sure if we will get that together in time.

We just pushed out the latest 5E ruleset code to the TEST channel along with the D&D 2024 Free Rules module. Please let us know if you have any feedback on this and we will work on getting those issues fixed before the official launch next week.

• Exhaustion update based on global setting
• New version of parsePower(...) that should accept either the old call format or the new format that expects a table with the arguments inside
• Character Wizard Updates
• added warnings for cross-compatibility between 2024 and Legacy
• added ASI and feat choice to legacy backgrounds when class is D&D 2024 (partially implemented)
• blocked Species ASI from legacy records when class is from D&D 2024
• D&D 2024 PHB and D&D 2024 Free Rules updates
• Class Updates to list items for starting equipment
• Background updates to list items for starting equipment

Invisible Condition and init rolls: thank you for fixing the disadv -> adv. Another thing I noticed: It's giving advantage regardless of whether you have game option set to legacy or 2024. This would be a rare problem, but thought I'd let you know.

I've also noticed that the scroll bar is not present on character sheets. It's there for all the other places I've looked. You can still scroll to the bottom with the mouse wheel, but that can be slow if you're character sheet is pretty long.

Thanks again for all the hard work :-)

The character sheet itself doesn't have a global scrollbar. Can you give me more details on what you would expect to have a scrollbar with so I can check them over?

Just pushed a new build that limits the Invisible Advantage when game mode is set to 2024.
