Custom Race Monstrous

[stargazer_dragon]

So for player monstrous races it gives unlimited build points, which is fine however is there a way to make it still show the amount that it spent so it might say 25/infinite or something. This way if I want to allow a monstrous race with only 10 point build max I can easily track that. Monstrous race allows some abilities that are otherwise not allowed, but the point buy system allows me to watch the over all power of a creature a bit

Showing points spent also allows me to do stuff like adjust the HD the creature starts with based on the points spent, thus a advanced creature might always have at least 1 HD while a monstrous one with 60 points spent might have a minimal of 5 HD, Giving in effect effective levels by balancing the power of the creature into starting HD. ((seams like 1 starting HD per 10 points spent after the first 10 seamed fitting balance wise.

Seems like a good suggestion. You should submit it through fogbugz.

Coding needed for swapping race during char creation

Hero lab needs a code to reset all racial granted powers whenever race is changed, thus removing ethnicity and more so removing powers gained via custom monster or custom race.

So it needs a event that triggers when race changes that before new race is added it removes everything granted from the race. I assume not a easy bit of coding but really one that needs added

no clue how to do that, to be honest not even fully sure how to submit bugs. More of the fact that I have never attempted to learn these things I am sure.

There is a stickied thread in the main page that says something like "Report Pathfinder Bugs here" and it has a link inside it.
