Configurable Help

Frodie

Well-known member
Hey I want to add a Secondary Ability (flaws). Where do I put these abilities and how do I "tag" them to show up?
 
Sorry for my usual refrain, but I'll need more information about what you're trying to do before I'll be able to help you.

Please explain what you're trying to accomplish without using any Hero Lab terms, then explain what steps you've taken in Hero Lab to get to that, and where you've run into trouble.
 
Sorry, under the Configurable Tab is used to give a Template the choice of various special abilites. I got to work fine. The is also a spot for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th special abilites slection. I would like to have add flaws as a second abilitiy choice.
 
What problem are you running into? What's keeping you from making a second ability selection?
 
It will have "flaws" as a second choice, but it will read "Nothing to Choose From". I made a test flaw but I do not know where to put it or how to attach it.
 
I have a screen shot of what I am talking about. I hope that helps. I just want to know where and how to add the 2nd abilitiy selections.

How did you create the primaries? Do you see any options on that that might allow you to set them to be secondary?

I don't know about Pathfinder, but in d20, I had to use this eval script:

Code:
perform hero.childfound[cHelpArd].assign[psiClass.mChaos]

in the custom ability. Perhaps you need something similar. The code above is actually for Psionic Mantles. I created several Psionic Powers with the user tag "mChaos" then created a Custom Ability for the Chaos Mantle. This custom ability used the above script to allow characters with the mantle to choose from the appropriate powers. Hope this helps.
 
You want to be working with the second and third options in the list.

The list for "Available to Race" also includes all configurables, so select the one this applies to.

Setting "Not Primary Ability?" to "Secondary" will make that ability show up in the configurable's secondary abilities list, instead of being a primary ability.
