Greater Animal Aspect code application

[bodrin]

As per the spell descriptions

[B]Animal Aspect [/B]You gain some of the beneficial qualities of  an animal. Your base form is largely unchanged and your size is  unaltered, but some of your body parts are altered. Armor or gear you  are wearing adjusts to your new shape for the duration of the spell.  When you cast animal aspect, choose one of the following animals to gain  the associated benefits. You can only have one animal aspect or greater  animal aspect spell active on you at a time.

[B]Greater Animal Aspect[/B] This spell functions like animal aspect, except you can either gain two aspects at once or one aspect that adds effects to the aspects that animal aspect grants, as described below.

the "either gain two aspects at once" statement is causing me some consternation. I'm considering having a selector for the Greater version which allows the end user to pick the two adjustments or to apply the extra effect but I'm unsure how to achieve this.

I have the Greater version codes working but at the moment it only applies the extra effect not the two aspects at once version, I was just going to leave the basic adjustment active and then select the greater version initially but it fills the adjustment table very quickly.

Thoughts anyone?

Just let the user add two of the lesser ones manually, and add 7 new greater ones for when they choose the improved options.

That was a quick reply. I was editing the post

Yes, thats what I thought it leaves it up to the user to remember what version is active then.

Raptor: Your enhancement bonus to speed increases to +30 feet, and you [B]gain the benefit of the Run feat[/B].

The bold part is proving to confuse me, if I bootstrap the Run feat to the adjustment it shows in the feat list even if the adjustment isn't active. I've tried to assign the feat using the perform hero statement but keep getting an invalid tag expression, can anybody think of an existing script example that assigns a feat instead of using the bootstrap mechanic?

You should check out the "Spell and Conferred Ability Adjustments - I'd appreciate help from the community" thread as that was when I first started and was posting each XML for each adjustment into the thread. LOTS of good stuff in there.

Including an answer to your exact question on THIS post.

Can you think of any other spell adjustments that need to bootstrap something that's only supposed to be active while the adjustment is active?






Darvision
Heroism, Greater
Iron Body

Perchance is this the answer?

Don't forget the phase & priority that happens at - phase & priority are always important.
