Ability damage and level loss

[Stephen]

How do you track (for Pathfinder) temporary ability score damage and temporary level loss in HeroLab?

Thanks!

On the "Adjust" tab under the "Other Adjustments" add "Ability Score (Temporary)" and "Negative Levels".

Update: a later version of Pathfinder added "ability score damage" adjustment that should be used instead of temporary.

Thanks.

How come negative levels do not affect my caster level or # of spells I'm able to learn?

I know this is an older post, but since I found it via google I thought I would point out the fact that the ability damage via Adjust vs ability damage via Personal (at least as far as the ipad app goes) appears to have different results. Perhaps it is a minor bug?

The ipad version of ability drain under the Personal menu doesn't reduce the actual ability score, just the bonus value.

Thank you ShadowChemosh for pointing me to the correct method.

It's the same adjustment just different locations FYI. I just tried on the iPad and it worked. You sure you didn't put in ability damage as that is NOT suppose to change the ability score in Pathfinder.
