Actually maybe best to wait and see if we can make use of the Addon feature instead of boostrapping the tools. This may allow the tools to be changed by the end-gamer.

I will need to do some proof of concept testing to see if it works.

Do the official HeroLab 5e release notes today change things positively or negatively for this discussion?

NOTE: Prevously, proficiencies with tools granted by races, backgrounds, etc. were handled by assigning ProfTool tags to the pick, which were then forwarded to the hero. This method is no longer supported. The new way of handling tool proficiencies is to bootstrap the tool from the pick with the Proficienc.Tool tag assigned on the bootstrap. Existing proficiencies will need to be converted over to the new method. Otherwise they won't show up on the printed character sheet or the specials tab in Hero Lab.

Negatively. When it was done with "tags" I can change tags with a script. Now its done by bootstrapping. Bootstrap Things are much harder to change. There is a "few" ways it can be done and I need to test those. But either way it requires some grunt work to change all the backgrounds that exist in the Pack already.

Quick update. I have added adjustments that will allow for changing, adding or removing the Skills that background provides. These will be in the next release of the community Pack.

Trying out a concept for allowing the Tools to be changed. Will see how it goes.

Very simple feature request if someone would mind :

if you are a warlock and have the eldritch blast cantrip, could it appear in the attacks with all the feat bonuses (like crossbows, swords and all, so new players do not forget about it)

[malhagor]

I am new to this forum and i am unsure it goes here, but i would like to request a small something ion the 5e ocmmunity pack :

For the classes using eldritch blast, could it appear int he smae place as other weapon attack with all the feat and bonuses ? thank you.
