Savage Worlds Bug Reports

If you could fix that, then making a Menu Source that only showed valid things would also be possible. That would be cool.

If it helps the task seem a bit less daunting, you wouldn't have to do every edge. Only Combat Edges, as they're the only ones that you can get with Super Edge.

So, only Combat Edges, and among those, only that subset that has another Edge as a requirement.

The trick is to set it up so that it not only affects the stock Edges, but to it also works for Edges from other sources.

After the last update, I'm getting errors for characters with the Professional and Expert edges. The +1 or +2 is not showing up for the skill, plus they are showing as not using all their skill points. Prior to the update the bonus was showing correctly and all skill points were shown as used.

[CapedCrusader]

I'll check that.

[SeeleyOne]

It is messing with the points spent, adjusting the base value (the die) and not the bonus.

In my version, since I have defined the maximums for skills and attributes elsewhere, does work. Maybe it can give you an idea as it works while the official one in HL has stopped working:

For Professional:

var isSkill as number
isSkill = 1

if (field[usrChosen1].ischosen <> 0) then
   ~ Account for Attribute modifiers
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"agility") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrAgi].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrAgi] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"arcane") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrArc].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrArc] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"smarts") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrSma].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrSma] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"spirit") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrSpi].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrSpi] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"strength") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrStr].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrStr] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif
   if (compare(lowercase(field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[name].text),"vigor") = 0) then
      hero.child[attrVig].field[trtMaximum].value += 1
      #traitcreation[attrVig] += 1
      isSkill = 0
   endif

   if (isSkill = 1) then
       perform field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[trtRoll].modify[+,1,"Professional"]
   endif

   perform field[usrChosen1].chosen.assign[Duplicate.Profession]
endif

Honestly, I think that the problem is not the eval script in Professional, but something else that is killing it. I am thinking that it does not kill mine as my thing id is different.

If anything, people can learn a bit from the technique that I used above. For one thing, an example on how to compare things by the name. This is really handy if you only sometimes use something, in my case being that using the Arcane attribute is optional and therefore not always on the character. It would throw an error if it looked for that attribute and it was not there. This way it checks for a match in what the user selected and then does its job. This is great if you make up a list that does custom things.

Minor finding, from the new SPC2 the Edge: Scholar (Worm) doesn't appear to have the Source set on it so it's showing up everywhere.

[SeeleyOne]

Oh yeah, I noticed that. But I forgot to say something

Quite recently I updated Hero Lab with the 2nd Edition Superpower Companion Rules for SW. And it itself works quite nicely.

But all the other setting (Solomon Kane, Deadlands:Reloaded etc.) don't even show undersettings although I downloaded them again and the prpgram tells me that the download worked.

Additionally I get this every time I start Savage Worlds (NOT when I start Mutants & Masterminds):

The data files could not be loaded due to errors. Hero Lab will now attempt to load them in recovery mode. Once loaded, you can access the editor as normal to correct any errors.

The following errors occurred:

Thing 'edgHSFMGvB', with condition test currently at Initialize/10000 and its earliest possible resolution at Initialize/2100, bootstraps thing 'wpHSFMGvB' which must have its live state resolved by Initialize/2000

Thing 'edgHSFMXrL', with condition test currently at Initialize/10000 and its earliest possible resolution at Initialize/2100, bootstraps thing 'wpHSFMXRL' which must have its live state resolved by Initialize/2000

So, any idea what is wrong and how I can fix that?

SPC2 is working because it's a core setting but all the others won't load because of the one setting you have that is failing, which I believe, based on those names, is High Space. That particular error is addressed in this thread. I thought High Space was fixed, though, so you may just try deleting it and then downloading it again to make sure you get the latest version (or use the fix mentioned in the thread I mention to fix the data file yourself if you are so inclined.)
