Hello! Got a couple of weird problem (hopefully I can
explain it clearly):
FIRST PROBLEM
Due to some homebrew additions, spellcasting characters may
have spells that need a FLAT DC or spells
that get a bonus to the DC (resulting in the spell being set up with a Flat DC).
However, when I go into the “Attacks & Sellcasting” section, go to the “SAVING
THROWS” line of a spell, and attempt to set the “VS DC:” to FLAT , it just automatically reverts
back to SPELL . At this same time, on
the “ATTACK” line, whether I have the box checked or not OR even using it or
not, when I set the “VS DC:” to FLAT ,
the “ATTACK” line changes to STR .
I then tested and discovered that when I set the “VS DC:” to
any of the 6 ability scores, the box on the “ATTACK” line automatically matches
it with the respective ability score AND reverts the “VS DC:” back to SPELL . I also noticed when I did this,
the DC of the spell would change to that of the “Selected ability
modifier+proficiency+8” (the setting of FLAT
on the “VS DC:” line would match STR
if it was selected).
Now, the text box for FLAT
on the “SAVING THROW” line does show up and let me type in a number, but it
does not change the DC.
HOWEVER, this only seems to affect spells that are tied to a
SPELLCARD in the SPELLS tab***. If I create an individual entry in “Attacks
& Spellcasting”, I seem to be able to set FLAT DC’s without issue.
SECOND PROBLEM
·
When a Spell Save DC & Spell Attack Bonus
are altered (i.e. increasing its respective ability modifier by 1), the spells
in “Attacks & Spellcasting” do not automatically update the DC or Attack
bonuses (oddly enough, I have to utilize the first problem I stated above by,
for example, switching the “VS DC:” from CHARISMA to STRENGTH and back to
CHARISMA, in order for those entries to update).
o
Also, when this happens, if a spell had the
spellcasting modifier added to the damage roll, it gets removed, but only for
spells that are tied to a SPELLCARD in the SPELLS tab***.
***NOTE: with regard to entries tied to a SPELLCARD in the
SPELLS tab, it does not matter if the spell is pulled from the compendium or I
enter them in manually, the problems are the same either way. Also, with regard to
the first problem, changing the SPELLCASTING ABILITY in the SPELLCARD does the
same thing as altering the “VS DC:” line in “Attacks & Spellcasting”.
Hopefully that all made sense.
