The print/noprint code is (I usually put it in pre-traits or traits 5000, but it has a broader range, but it depends on when things need to look at it, I am pretty sure that Setup might even work).
Code:
if (hero.tagis[Edge.edgMeLiterate] = 1) then
perform this.assign[Print.NoPrint]
endif
The above code is put inside the Hindrance. Then, as I mentioned, other things can look for the MeLiterate Hindrance and see if it is Print.NoPrint or (I think) Print.Print.
Personally I think that value should be able to be part of everything. Then we could have Derived Traits that only show up when not the default value and have other things turn themselves off or be turned off by mechanic scripts. |
I do it indirectly, with the Edge I listed; it has to be that way since you can buy it off with either Rewards or Advances. Is there some advantage to doing it your way over what I'm currently doing? It doesn't seem like it'd help with the problem at hand (the Reward thing).
