Pathfinder Bug Reports - version 3.3

[Mathias]

A new bug reports thread for the 5/26/10 update.

Another PDF cosmetic bug here (I think):

The description for Dodge in the 3.3 Pathfinder update says:

"+1 to AC vs attacks from one opponent."

The PRD doesn't say the part about one opponent:

http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/feats.html#dodge

Quote: "Benefit: You gain a +1 dodge bonus to your AC. A condition that makes you lose your Dex bonus to AC also makes you lose the benefits of this feat."

Is the PRD out of date?

Thanks!

I don't have my Pathfinder book in front of me, but I believe the original D20 version said the bonus only applied vs one opponent, and the Pathfinder version just said you get a +1 Dodge bonus all the time.

Most things in Hero Lab have two versions of the description text - the description, and the summary. In the conversion from the SRD files to the Pathfinder files, I replaced all the description text (at least for feats) with the new Pathfinder text. I didn't always catch the need to change the summary text. (The SRD version of dodge only applied to one opponent).

You can see the description text by moving your mouse over the ? on the right-hand side of an item's display, and can see the summary text displayed on the Specials tab and on the printout.

So, I'll get this fixed for the next update. (Also, one of the projects I want to get to in the next few weeks is to check the summary text for all the feats).

I dont think the Ranged touch attack is figuring out correct everyone I see the math seems off

You'll have to be more specific than that about what's wrong.

Update: I found an error if the hero is not Size M, but please remember that generic "something's not right" reports don't help me track down the problem. What you do see, what you should see, and where you see it are always things I need to know in order to be able to track down a problem.

Not sure the skeleton HD thing was fixed for all races. My skeletal dire rat still gets an additional HD from the skeleton template.

Pulled in from older bug report thread. Hmm, didn't include my old test in with yours when I quoted.

Well, when I pressed the down arrow to reduce INT, it stopped reducing before it got to the correct value and I had to use the adjust tab to get it correct.

The total cost was recalculated as I went, so once I reached 10, the calculated cost was 2gp. Once I changed the number to purchase, pressing the "Set" button next to the Cost (Total) filled in the "Pay" fields. On a character who has 15pp, 150gp or 1500sp, the set button makes change correctly, always removing as many small coins as possible.

Must have got it into some weird state. Was not able to duplicated the problem myself.

Now, on the minion, purchase armor normally. The cost/weight changes for different sizes/non-humanoid shapes will be calculated for you (all armors can be made into barding). Now transfer the change back to the main character. A shared money pool is something I want to add, but that's the workaround until that's been added.

My character is a gnome who was putting barding on his riding dog which is medium. While medium barding weighs the same, it costs double. However even when I bought armor directly on the mount it cost what it would for a humanoid, not a mount. Did not find any checkbox or anything that indicated explicitly that this item is barding.

The following sort of seems like a bug, but could just be the way HL works. I only found it as I have been creating separate .user files, but trying to use the same source. Here is the example break down of the issue.

For MyData1.user I created a new source as follows:

<usesource source="PcAdvenArm" parent="Sources" name="Adventurers Armory"/>

Later I created a new .user file called MyData2.user and checked the same Source as I created in MyData1.user file. Everything was fine unless MyData1.user file is not present, because MyData2.user file only had the following for the source:

<usesource source="PcAdvenArm"/>

Now this is pretty easy for me to fix now that I know about it as I can just open it up in TextPad and do a quick replace and then everything works fine. Both MyData1 and 2 will work correctly with or without the other file so it does not hurt for .user files to have the full usesource info.

So is this a bug or just the way it works and I need to remember in this circumstance to change it in TextPad before sharing the file?

Thanks
