    M&M 3rd ed. Energy Absorption Bug

    Energy Absorption doesn't seem to adopt base trait cost properly, treating it like a -1 Flaw. I attempted to build it here, but the Strength came out costing 1p/rank. I suspect EA is still coded like it was in 2e. 3e EA is Trait + Reaction - Fades, which works out to the same base cost of...

    M&M 3rd ed. Toughness Immunity Bug

    I made a character with Toughness Immunity and now his PL is affected by his Stamina. The build is here. His Stamina (and therefore Fort and Toughness) are 14, but his Dodge, Parry, and Will are all 6 or less, shooting for a PL10 character. Adding Toughness Immunity to him seems to throw off...

    M&M 3rd ed. "Invisible" Strength Effect

    I've made a few powers using Strength Effect as the base, like a throwing blade that gives Ranged and Improved Crit to Strength Damage, essentially like a rank 0 Strength-based damage. However, the power name never shows up in the Specials tab, and I don't see it in the pulldown for ImpCrit...

    M&M 3rd ed. Elongation rank

    Elongation allows a PC to stretch their height (base rank -2) plus elongation rank, so rank 1 Elong would be rank -1 distance or 15 feet, but Elong displays as 30 feet at rank 1.

    All editions Raw Data Output request

    So I've been entering all of the DCA Heroes & Villians entries into HeroLab (yes, all 600+ of them) and was wondering if there was some relatively simple way to output all of that data into a spreadsheet format or .csv for comparison purposes. It would be great to be able to sort most of the...

    M&M 3rd ed. Perception Area feature

    This is a minor concern, but the Perception Area extra should have a field to enter the sense it affects, possibly a pulldown. Similarly, Affliction should have a Limited to (Sense) Flaw, also with field/pulldown since it is such a common option for Dazzle-type afflictions.

    All editions Comprehend Plants error

    I was statting up the DC Heroes & Villains and realized that Comprehend Plants is listed as a 1 rank option, although it's listed in both 2e and 3e as requiring 2 ranks and every other unusual Comprehend is at 2 ranks.

    M&M 3rd ed. Illusion Area

    There seems to be an inconsistency to increasing the area of an Illusion effect. In both M&M3e and DCAHH, the section on Illusion Size says: "Your illusion occupies an area with a maximum volume rank equal to your effect rank. To increase the size of the illusion you can create, apply the...

    M&M 3rd ed. "Naked" Extras and Modifiers

    Not sure if this is a bug, but I noticed the - Strength Effect - option doesn't allow for any kind of Flaw or Drawback. I was attempting this specifically with DC's The Atom (Al Pratt) from the H&V book, who has Penetrating on 8 ranks of Strength but Flawed to be Distracting and Noticeable...

    All editions Feature Request - Power Level Tab

    One of the most useful things for me that HeroLab does is keep track of PL of a character by checking all of the offenses, defenses and skills and figuring out which is the highest. However, because there are several things that can affect PL, I have to do a lot of hunting to figure out what...

    M&M 3rd ed. Grabbing totals

    Grabbing Finesse doesn't calculate the Grab attack bonus based on Dex, and Elongation doesn't add to the Grab attack bonus. I happened to notice this working on Mr. Fantastic. Edit: No, wait, I'm looking at the attack check required before the grab. Technically the Grab check should be the DC...

    M&M 3rd ed. Concealment Attacks

    Concealment Attacks are a little tricky to figure out, but I realized we're missing the ability to add extra ranks to Concealment for the purposes of improving its save DC, much like what's already in place for Movement Attack powers. Technically you need the same thing for Morph and...

    M&M 3rd ed. Small Environment error

    Environment has an area effect of 30' radius at rank 1, but it's displaying 60'. I assume this may have been confused since 60' is rank 1 distance. I imagine this won't be too hard to adjust.

    M&M 3rd ed. Deflect PL sensitivity

    Here's an interesting one. I have a few 2ed characters largely based around the Deflect power in some way, so I've been poking at the new streamlined 3ed Deflect. Although it doesn't say so anywhere directly, I would think Deflect should probably be PL-capped. Deflect is essentially a Ranged...

    Critical-Favored issue

    While entering the archetypes, I've come across several instances of characters with Critical Strike, but no Favored Opponent feat. (In fact, I rarely encounter both on one character.) According to the Core 2e FAQ, a player can emulate FO using a Hero Point in order to use CS against any...
