Help with Fighter Weapon Training, Please

This script you're working on is on the archetype itself, not on a class special, right?

Yeah on the Archetype itself.

I moved it to a Quintenary ability but still nothing. But now weapon bonus and damage displayed on class and weapon tabs are both the same at least (Still +3 when it should be 1)

Try right-clicking on the weapon training abilities you've added. Choose "Show Debug fields for XXXXX", and find the abValue field on that list. Do they agree with what the debug statements were reporting?

Also try "Show Debug Tags for XXXXX" on one of your weapons - are the number of TrainBonus tags there what they should be?

The weapon training ability shows an abvalue of 3
For the weapon it is adding 3 trainbonus tags.

Try adding

 
debug eachpick.field[name].text & ": added a training tag"

immediately below

 
perform eachpick.assignstr[bonustag]

That'll let you double-check how many times this script is adding the TrainBonus tags.

So the final abValue is 3, but according to the debug statements you added earlier, it's only 0 or 1 during the execution of that script

See - there's something else going on here that's interfering with the function of this script - keep looking for other scripts or other things that could be causing this.

I changed the timing to pre-levels 1000 and now it is only 2, which isn't right but it's closer...I don't think it needs to be post levels since it should just count each one taken. I may be wrong on that though.


If I run this it will show once in the output as:
Weapon Training: Pole Arms: added a training tag.

foreach pick in hero from BaseWep where wepexpr
            for i = 1 to tagbonus
              perform eachpick.assignstr[bonustag]
            next
          nexteach
debug eachpick.field[name].text & ": added a training tag"

If I try it directly under it doesn't show anything at all.
Such as:

foreach pick in hero from BaseWep where wepexpr
            for i = 1 to tagbonus
              perform eachpick.assignstr[bonustag]
debug eachpick.field[name].text & ": added a training tag"
            next
          nexteach

field[cGiveSp3rd].value isn't calculated until Post-Levels/10000 - that's why this is at Post-Levels/10500.

Which would explain why changing it to prelevels lowers it by 1.

Weird...this EXACT same code when switched to a monk archetype works just fine. I know I copied it from the sohei... But it doesn't work on the Bard or Inquisitor. Does it maybe have something to do with those classes having spells? I've tried different ability slots (Secondary, Tertiary, Quintenary) on the bard, and something is throwing it off.

Another thing, I have the Archetype replace the class name, This wouldn't do anything to the base class helper would it?

Also...with a Bard, I have weapon training in the quintenary custom ability. If I add an optional quaternary ability it shows up under both weapon training and Quatenary abilities...disabling quatenary abilities doesn't do anything to the weapon training value though.
Here is a picture.

I'm trying to make a Gestalt Inquisitor/Fighter. I've got it almost completely finished, but one hang up is giving me fits. I can't seem to get the Fighter's Weapon Training to work correctly.

I made my own versions of each of the Weapon Groups, set them to Secondary Abilities and assigned them to my new class. They show up appropriately - at level 5 HL is giving the new class the option to choose one, and they all appear in his list. At level 9 he gets to choose another, and the appropriate list appears. But his bonus for the first group doesn't increase, and his bonus for the second is listed as +0. Leveling up further gives the same results - he's allowed to choose another weapon group, but none of the bonuses increase with his level.

You may wish to check out THIS older thread its about Fighter and Gestalt and a script I had to write to get it to work. Sounds like it may help you.
