Passive Perception

[Angela2013]

For quite a while now I have used Passive Perception (as in Dungeons and Dragons) but we have just wrote it on the sheet. I now want to put it into the Editor so that it appears under Perception like a situational modifier but have it figure the correct value (we use 5 + total Perception).

Now to have this appear on everyone's sheet I need to make a Mechanic (I hope I am right). Not sure how to setup both parts.

Well you could create a mechanic with a script running at Render 10000

var passive as number
passilve = 5 + #skillranks[skPercep]

#situational[hero.child[skPercep], passive, "Passive Perception"]

you'll have to reload the system afterwards. This should work, but it is untested, it is at least a start.

Works great, just need to figure out how to change it from number of skill ranks to the final Perception modifier

 

[AndrewD2]

change the passive line to

passive = 5 + hero.child[skPercep].field[skTotal].value

Yay it works. You are now my 1st favorite scripter.
