Changing a Forced Ability score

Umarian · February 21st, 2013, 02:37 PM

Is there a way to modify an ability score that has been set with the force command? For instance, the Skeleton template sets the Wis and Cha scores to 10, and I want a second template to add 2 to CHA.

The burning skeleton template does exactly what you want to do.

Thanks Mathias, that does answer that question. It does bring up a second one though....if the Ability score is forced, is there a way to remove the force so that it can be adjusted by items, spells, etc?

The Undead Lord template essentially removes the mindless undead, and makes them customizable like any other character.

The robot subtype has an example of how to remove mindless from a type.

You've seen how forced ability scores are added, right? - simply by setting a field value in a script.

So, un-set that forced value - set the forced value back to 0.

Thanks Mathias. Will play around with that.
