Creating new class spell list with extend thing

OK, found the secret for the spells.

In the Artificer class definition, there's a "Other Class' Spells" button. Which I didn't use because the Artificer had his own spell list. HOWEVER, if I don't use it and select the Artificer Class in the list, the tag sClass.cHelpArt is not created (or made visible).

So In order to fix the error message:

1) Open the editor
2) Open the COM_5ePack_UA - Artificer.user file containing the class.
3) Go Class->Class->Artificer
4) Find and click Other class' Spells
5) Find and check the Artificer class there, then clock ok.
6) Save and click Test now!
7) Now go to General->Extend thing
8) Follow the steps to reproduce the error.

It compiles and does not throw the error message.

Good Find. The sClass.? tag does not get created without that. Nice!
 
ShadowChemosh:

Once more, something new learned today. :)

I've always just followed what I've seen on other classes and always thought I was limited to cHelp???. :)

Unfortunately, my version for an Artificer is too heavily in use by my players to want to have to go through the hassle of recreating every Artificer we have. As I posted earlier the Mystic almost drove me mad. . . . :)
 
I'd forgotten all about this topic, but find myself coming back to it.

I thought I get a start on the new Unearthed Arcana Artificer Revisted.

https://dnd.wizards.com/articles/unearthed-arcana/artificer-revisited

I am trying to add spells usign the Extend thing tab in the editor.

However, like TheEnthusiast originally, I get errors:

Hero Lab was forced to stop compilation after the following errors were detected:

Thing Extension 'spAcidSpla' - Tag 'cHelpArR' not defined

I am using:
- Thing Unique Id: spAcidSpla
- Group Id: sClass
- Tag Id: cHelpArR (the Unique Id of the new Artificer class)

I've Saved, restarted Hero Lab, Used <CTRL> - R & <CTRL> - C, and still get the errors. I can't for the life of me remember how we resolved this issue originally (if we did).
