If you need more complexity, you can nest your if statements:

Code:

 
if (A relationship B) then
  if (C relationship D) then
    ~do something
    endif
  endif

So, ! works? Cool. Thanks for the help. I'm trying to take the dungeon a day content and make it available to my players and this has helped greatly.

Ok, looking at some of the more complex items... How on earth would you make something like the mask of giants? When activated it makes all sorts of changes. Also, how do you quantify wearing from activated?

Is the PDF better than the wiki?

HL has for Items the ability to track if its equipped or if it is Activated. You can also track the number of uses. Setting up the above are all simple options listed on the Thing in the editor.

Once activated you would have to write the Eval script to actually do the changes/stuff its suppose to do. As I have no idea what a "mask of giants" is I can't even give a you a good direction to look.

So far 99% of everything I ever needed a magic item to do I have been able to make it do in the HL editor.

Ok, then how can you tell if it's been activated? I haven't seen the field or flag for that yet. And to create an activatable item so that you can activate it in the in-play tab, how do you set that up?

Is there a page in the documentation that talks about this kinda stuff? I haven't found anything that has any examples that you could just use.

The Mask of Giants is in the APG for pathfinder. The description is in HL if you own the APG content. If not, it's probably on d20pfsrd.

In the editor, you can use the "New (Copy)" button at the bottom left to make a copy of something and study how it works.

Is there anyway to see the pathfinder stuff that seems to be hidden in other files somewhere?

OR!!! I'm an idiot and just hadn't pressed the buttons to see how it worked. SWEET! Thanks guys. The ability to lookup a current hireling is awesome.
