Fun with Darkvision

Umarian

Well-known member
I have a class special that adds darkvision, or increases the range if you already have it.

At 1st level gain darkvision 60 ft. The range increases to 90 ft. at 6th level. At 8th level can also see in magical darkness. If you already possess darkvision its range increases by +30 ft. at 1st and 6th levels.

I am trying to get this to work, and I had thought that something was implemented to allow for this by adjusting the abValue2 field on raDarkVis. I can't seem to get it to work though. I have tried bootstrapping the raDarkVis to the archetype, with the following settings:

Tags:
Value.60
ClSpecWhen.1

Fields:
abValue2.30

Am I forgetting something on this?

Phase ? Priority?

Also take a look in the help file examples "how to" I think there is an example how to apply the "highest" bonus to a given thing. That may help somewhat.

Those are directly on the bootstrap. Not being added in an eval script.
 
You don't mention how they don't work - are you not getting darkvision at all, is it not changing at the correct level? Does it work properly to grant a human darkvision, but not increase darkvision for a dwarf? Or something else?

Darkvision is a racial ability - why give it a ClSpecWhen tag? Wouldn't you give the ClSpecWhen tag to the class special that's bootstrapping darkvision?
 
It is providing Darkvision if it does not exist, but is not increasing Darkvision for races that already have it.
 
I just tested an 8th level dwarven cleric with the Caves domain. That character should have darkvision 120, but only has darkvision 60, so there may be a bug in this right now.

Thanks Mathias. I wasn't sure if I was missing a step. I can report it as a bug for your tracking.
