M&M 2nd ed. Modifying Grapple Checks

Grayson7 · March 9th, 2016, 03:06 AM

Is there a way to modify how Grapple Checks are calculated in Hero Labs? For example, if I wanted Strength (but not Super Strength) to count at half the rate it does now, how would I do it...assuming such a thing is possible? Thank you.

P.S. This is for Mutants and Masterminds 2nd Edition

I'll have to fiddle with it when I get home, but what this fellow is doing sounds like it could probably be borrowed and put into an independent script.

Thanks, looking forward to what you come up with.

So, I haven't found a way to actually modify the value, although I did find out that, when you have an editor file open, there's a .hlz file that has all of the scripts in it. It looks like there'd be a hook there to change how the grapple value is calculated. I just need to figure out where to stick it into the system...
