Hey all,
I'm currently woring on creating an army from scratch with ABCreator,
and having good success, but I've run into a problem:

I have an "item" that with each one a character has it increases
stat "x", that is the easy part. The tricky part is that for every 2
of that item it needs to increase stat "y" by one, so...

one item:
stat x+1

two items
stat X+2
stat y+1

Three itmes
Stat X+3
Stat y+1

etc...

I've tried to have "stat:y+.5" and then set the general settings
to "round=down", but that doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.

Try using "stat:y+.49". Unless you will be using VERY large numbers of the
item, this ought to yield the proper net result you are seeking.

Hope this helps,
Rob

Personally I prefer not to use the "item" for something like that. Make it
using "tabl", with options that increase the stats. Such as:
tabl:1 item=option1, 2 item = option2, etc.
Then:
option1 = base:x+1
option2 = base:x+2, base:y+1
Option4 = base:x+4,base:y+2
