I honestly can't find the help thread...

I've put the file there, restarted the program, then restarted the PC when that didn't work. The folder it leads to is "C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab" is that right?

Either way; no new tabs.

I suspect this wouldn't make it a racial ability anyway :/

Thanks for all the help

Almost there - that folder has a solder called "Data" in it, which holds the game systems. The .user file needs to go into the 5e folder.

Once you have it, go to the Personal tab on the character, and you can add a Bonus Feat as an adjustment.

This tab works as soon as the Feat Bonus field is greater than 1. "What" sets that value it does not care about. This example uses a Adjustment. But as I mentioned you can put a hard-coded script of "1" on to a racial ability or race or feat or trait or spell.

So yes this will work for a Racial Ability just fine.

Let's assume that I'm an absolute n00b, still struggling to get my head around any of this (because, hey, who're we kidding? I'm a doughnut when it comes to things like this).

I can't see the new tab anywhere. I still see it in the class tab, when I have the choice of increasing ability points or taking a feat but that's it. (see attached).

Assuming I get this to work, what code do I add to my variant human class? (I really am bad at this )

Thanks in advance

Did you get the .user file placed into the correct location? To know for sure is go to the "Adjustment" tab and try and add the adjustment "Feats, Bonus". If you see that adjustment then you loaded the .user file correctly. If not do that.

Add the adjustment "Feats, Bonus" and set the counter to +1. You have to get the "number of allowed bonus feats above 0" to have the new tab display.

Look at the script on the Adjustment. You want to take the section that is adding the pAdjust value and put that on your Race or Racial Ability. Instead of pulling the number of bonus feats from the counter you would simply set the value to "1".

I recommend putting the logic on the Racial Ability because then you can simply "reuse" this logic over and over again by Bootstrapping that Racial Ability to different races/monsters.
