Skill Ranks increase with no Int

Frodie · December 20th, 2015, 04:13 PM

Another robot issue. The MSRD robots have no Int score, so there are no skill points. All skills points have to be added on with gear items. Well, I found out how to add skill points with NP. But you can't spend any skill points without getting an error (to many points added). The max skill rank is 0, I guess, it's either because of no Int score or no HD. So I looked around and can't find a way to increase the max skills rank by a +1. Any ideas?

Item Skill points (like from Headbands) are different than regular ones. If you want them to be able to select their skills, you'll probably have to add to resSkills manually.

Yea, I see what you are saying and that might work. I was able to give them a pool of points from the item, but you just couldn't increase a skill with them. I might use drop boxes that give a bonus to a chosen skill. Kind of a work around, but it will work if I can't figure a way to raise the rank limit.

I found a way, it's the Helper.SklErRanks tag

Code:

 post att 11500

foreach pick in hero from BaseSkill 
  perform eachpick.delete[Helper.SklErRanks]
  nexteach
