Effect Coding Questions & Answers

[Rhydion]

Hope that helps

Thank you very much. I hope the creator knows, if not perhaps its something to add in (Wishful thinking).

The NIFTAG worked a dream. You've actually solved many problems by making me think about that tag!

I did come across another weird one. Not sure if I am using the correct syntax or if the code doesn't do what I think it does.

I've been trying to use DMGAT from BCE to create a healing effect when taking damage one time. I have tried many variations but cant seem to get it to activate. I have tried some of the following:
DMGAT: HEAL: 5d6
DMGAT; Heal: 5d6
HEAL: 5d6; DMGAT

Regardless it doesn't work the way I think it should. Any tips for something like that?
Apologies for my relentless questions of which I no doubt will have more later XD

***Quick update
I have something kinda working. I did this:
TDMGADDT: Auto-Cure
The custom condition being this:
Auto-Cure; REGENA: 5d6+10

Technically the spell calls for 5d6 [CL], however, if you put CL in the custom condition code, it can't resolve it because it had no idea what the CL is and simply breaks the code. This obviously isn't ideal. If anyone has a better way to do this let me know XD Damned CL requirements >.<

I do not see a DMGAT command I only have these DMG commands from BCE

DMGA (D) [damage type]* Add Effect Apply damage when the effect is added
DMGDT (-) Damage Deactivate effect when damage is taken
DMGOE (D) [damage type]* Ongoing Damage Apply ongoing damage at the END of the Actor's turn
DMGR (D) or (.N) [damage type] * ,all, [range] * Damage Reduce the raw damage (before resistances) by (D) or when a decimal between 0-1 reduce raw damage by percentage
DMGRT (-) Damage Remove effect when damage is take

It's listed on his forge page under modifiers: DMGAT (-) Activate effect when damage is taken

However I did just find a way to get an auto heal working. Providing the dice on the heal do NOT change such as in the spell I am using. You can do this:
TDMGADDT: Auto-Cure; HEAL: [CL] [WIS]
Custom Condition: Auto-Cure; REGENA: 5d6
This will apply the bonus of the CL and the modifier to the next healing roll which is the regeneration. Allowing for an auto-heal on hit

Update*
Added IF statement so the bonus heal doesn't apply to other healing:
TDMGADDT: Auto-Cure; IF: CUSTOM(Auto-Cure); HEAL: [CL] [WIS]
