Hi there Gurus,

I was wondering if y'all are working on some kind of tooltip or something that would help us see how HL calculates the current #'s that it spits out for things like Skillchecks, Attack rolls, Damage rolls, etc..... A tooltip like that would help me immensely when I review character sheets which I've entered for my players' leveled up characters...

Loving the HL so far!

This capability is possible in HL, but I just haven't had the many weeks worth of time it would take to retro-fit the Pathfinder files to use it. The Pathfinder files began as a copy of the d20 files, which were the first game system added to HL. The tooltip mechanisms were added to HL later on, and haven't been incorporated into the d20/Pathfinder files yet.

(You can see what it will end up looking like by checking out some of the newer games like Cortex or Savage Worlds, even in demo mode).
