If you really do want to display things as 12/12 meaning "nothing spent", then re-examine how you're displaying things - currently, it displays field[trkUser].value & "/" & field[trkMax].value (I'm referring to the finalize script on the trkUser field, BTW). Maybe change that to display field[trkLeft].value & "/" & field[trkMax].value. That way, changing the maximum doesn't mean that the amount spent has to change.

The way Numenera plays, the numbers you have left are more meaningful than the numbers you've spent. It's just a quicker visual reference. It's like when you take damage in Pathfinder. The fact that you have 50 hit points left is a more directly meaningful than the fact that you've lost 10 points out of 60.
I did try changing trkUser to trkLeft, but I got an error. I must have done it in the wrong place. I'll take another look.
