Multiplying modifiers for resources?

hawkwolf · February 10th, 2018, 04:06 PM

Hello I am fairly new to this editing thing and right now I am trying to convert a little known (as far as I can tell) class from 3.5. It was a third party release and I want to be able to use it in pathfinder (Technologist). At the moment having some trouble with the custom resource tracker. They use activation points. It used a weird chart to figure out the amount of activation points they get a day so I am simplifying it to say along the lines of (level+Cha mod)x5. I know how to add level to cha. And I see there is an option of multiplying level but is there a way to add the level together and modifier before being multiplied?

I don't think there is an Attrx5 tag, so you'd have to do the calculation yourself in an eval script.

Can you show me an example of what that would look like?

PostAttr 10000

Code:

~Add our level to our charges
field[trkMax].value += field[xAllLev].value

~Add our charisma modifier (minimum 0)
field[trkMax].value += #attrbonus[aCHA]

~Multiply the total so far by 5
field[trkMax].value *= 5

Thanks. Last piece for me is to make sure it all balances out ^.^

(Also in the mean time, gotta figure out how to make a custom ability give an item)
