weapon proficiency linkage

[Gomo]

I have a problem with linking weapons to proficiencies and attributes.
I have made a proficiency component based on skills from Savage World tutorial (I've made also skills, so I have both) but when I try to calculate roll value I got errors.
Right now I use such line:

@value = field[trtFinal].value + linkage[attribute].field[trtFinal].value

En the erro is:

Linkage pick 'attribute' not located for current context
Location: 'field calculate' script for Field 'prRoll' near line 5

In the end I will always need only Dexterity so basically I wouldn't need ane other attribute so maybe it is some simplier way to overcome this.
I have also error when I have such line:

<linkage linkage="attribute" optional="yes"/>

Error:

File: traits.str (line 351) - Linkage - Duplicate record encountered ('attribute')

So I changed it for this:

<linkage linkage="Profic" optional="yes"/>

But I guess it doesn't work.

Finally I would like to link a weapon to specific proficiency - but right now I doubt I could mange to do that.

Thanks in advance.

In the traits.str file, around line 351, what <linkage> elements have you defined? It sounds like you've added at least two of them - one a duplicate of the other.

[Gomo]

351 line is:

<linkage linkage="Profic" optional="yes"/>

Here is the whole component:

  <component
    id="Profic"
    name="Proficiency"
    autocompset="no"> 	

    <field
      id="prRoll"
      name="Net Skill Roll"
      type="derived">
      <calculate phase="Final" priority="1000">
        <after name="Calc trtFinal"/><![CDATA[
        if (container.ishero <> 0) then
          ~@value = field[trtFinal].value + linkage[attribute].field[trtFinal].value 
          endif
        ]]></calculate>
      </field> 
	  
	  	      <field
      id="prLrnCrv"
      name="Learning Curve"
      type="static"
	  defvalue="2">
      </field>
	    
    <!--   <linkage linkage="attribute" optional="yes"/>-->
    <linkage linkage="Profic" optional="yes"/>

    <identity group="Profic"/> 

    <!-- Every skill is shown on the "Rolls" mouse-over on the Dashboard/TacCon -->
    <tag group="DashTacCon" tag="Rolls"/>

	<eval index="1" phase="Setup" priority="4000"><![CDATA[
  field[trtBonus].value = - 2
  ]]></eval> 
	
    <eval index="2" phase="Setup" priority="5000"><![CDATA[
      perform forward[Profic.?]
      ]]></eval>

    <eval index="3" phase="Traits" priority="10000">
      <before name="Calc resLeft"/>
      <after name="Bound trtUser"/><![CDATA[
      doneif (origin.ishero = 0)
      hero.child[resSkill].field[resSpent].value += (field[trtUser].value - field[trtBonus].value)*(field[trtUser].value - field[trtBonus].value) * 10 
      ]]></eval>
	  <!--
		  <eval index="4" phase="Setup" priority="5000"><![CDATA[
  ~pull the identity tag of the linked attribute into the skill
  perform linkage[attribute].pullidentity[Attribute]
  ]]></eval>      -->

    </component>

Okay, so are you still getting that error about duplicate records?

If not, what's your question? What is it about your Profic linkage that isn't working?

[Gomo]

Right now I have commented lines which gave me errors (those from first post).
For clearing thing out:
Why is this line "<linkage linkage="attribute" optional="yes"/>" made errors?

[Mathias]

Please re-phrase that last question. I can't tell what you're trying to ask.

[Gomo]

Why when I was using line

<linkage linkage="attribute" optional="yes"/>

within my component, I've got such error:

Linkage - Duplicate record encountered ('attribute')

?

[Mathias]

Did you copy that straight from the skills component?

Does the skills component still have a linkage named attribute?

You can't re-use the ID of a linkage in a different component.

[Gomo]

Ok, that is what I was suspected just wasn't sure, just thought I had to set it up in different place maybe.

[Gomo]

I pushed things further.
Now I've added some lines with intend to link weapons with proficiencies.
In WeaponMelee component I've added:

<linkage linkage="wprofic" optional="no"/>

and

<eval index="2" phase="Setup" priority="5000"><![CDATA[
  perform linkage[wprofic].pullidentity[Profic]
  ]]></eval>

in all melee wepon things I've added:

<link linkage="wprofic" thing="prSwords"/>

I've also added to editor.dat this line:

	      <inputthing
      name="Proficiency"
      helptext="Select the attribute used to calculate the dice pool for this skill.">
      <it_linkage compset="Profic" linkage="wprofic"/>

But for some reason appears as text field insted of dropdown menu (like in skills).
After this program recomplies but on load gives me such error:

Linkage pick 'wprofic' not located for current context
Location: 'eval' script for Component 'WeapMelee' (Eval Script '#2') near line 2
- - -
Linkage pick 'wprofic' not located for current context
Location: 'eval' script for Component 'WeapMelee' (Eval Script '#2') near line 2
- - -
Linkage pick 'wprofic' not located for current context
Location: 'eval' script for Component 'WeapMelee' (Eval Script '#2') near line 2

Which is about this line:

  perform linkage[wprofic].pullidentity[Profic]

I have searched for proper use of this but I've stuck.
So, what I am missing?

Thanks in advance.
