Quick question about editing racial specials

[teinedraig]

Hi,

I am looking at customising a race and one thing that is frustrating is where the following tag is found (from Elven Magic - Racial Specials)

herofield[tOverSplRs].value += 2

where do I find tOverSplRs?? I have looked everywhere - maybe I am just being slow tonight or is it a special field?

I assume it means Overcome Spell Resistance.

Thank you

I try to put a few notes about new information that may be useful to datafile authors into the FAQ (help menu...Pathfinder Roleplaying Game FAQ).

Here's the relevant information on tOverSplRs:

• The caster level of a specific class is stored as cCasterLev. the check vs. spell resistance is cOverSplRs, and concentration checks are cConcCheck.
• The tOverSplRs field on the hero stores a value that is added to all classes' cOverSplRs fields (for example, the spell penetration feat adds +2 to herofield[tOverSplRs].value - the individual classes then incorporate that into their own values).

To see the value in use, go to the Develop menu, and make sure "enable data file debugging" is checked, then select the last thing in that menu, "floating info windows", and the third item, "Show Hero Fields". That will show you the final value of all the fields that are stored on the hero.

I didn't know about the in program FAQ release notes! Thanks Mathias!
