Isn't it simpler to...

1 - Load portfolio containing the character you want to give the items TO.
2 - Import the "FROM" character from the old portfolio.
3 - Transfer item from the "FROM" character.
4 - delete the "FROM" character from the loaded portfolio.

So will the "Rich Parents" trait be able to actually change the the starting value of a character via script?

These new "coin" names and stuff is that going to be setup in the Editor or through the normal UI (ie Configure Your Hero)?

Yes, there's herofield[tSCROver].value, that stores an override value for the starting cash, so Rich Parents just sets the value of that herofield to the maximum of whatever's already in there or its own abValue field (of 900).

You need to use the editor to alter the coin picks that are used - replacing the existing ones and/or adding new ones

You would then have to export the "FROM" character to update it, assuming both are active characters. In that case, you want both characters to wind up being updated to represent the transaction.

If the receiving character is just "looting the body" of the other, you could skip updating the donor character... but I would because that's better book-keeping and avoids duplicating magic items when you forget the body was already "looted".

Some folks use a shared drive (Google drive, OneDrive, DropBox, etc.) to hold the HeroLab portfolios. That also helps when someone can't make it to the game and you need to hand out their character to a proxy player for a session, or similar cases.

Having an "Undo" function would be nice, so that the accidental transaction, doesn't show up on the transaction report. Well, that, or the ability to remove items from the transaction report. Being able to remove items from your inventory when used, without it showing as "sold for 0" on the transaction report would be nice too.

great news !

more stuff i'd like
* +1 to the search extended to "items I can afford" or a GP range
* +1 to the remove (non-rechargeable) items that have 0 uses left
* give xxx gold to other character (like moving items)
* include the automatic bonus progression which lowers the WBL by half

thanks,

You can already set the percentage when selling things.
