Reverse Ability Stat

[Frodie]

Got a weird one. A template I am working on gives a -2 to Cha. NP, but most of it abilities run off Cha. So I thought is there a way to reverse the Cha modifier, but I don't know what a good way to script this.

I am thinking something like, but not sure how to make the neg a pos

hero.childfound[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value = hero.childfound[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value

Any ideas?

Thanks

What do you mean by "reverse the Cha modifier"?

 

[Frodie]

Well instead of granting a neg modifier it become a positive modifier.

 

[AndrewD2]

To make a negative a positive just multipy it by -1

 

[Frodie]

Coolness, that works -

hero.childfound[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value = hero.childfound[aCHA].field[aModBonus].value *-1

But the Ability stat shows as CHA -1/+1. Which is also cool, but the skills and abilities need to run off the +1 and not the -1.

I think it's a timing issue. I have it at Post Att 10000 but that isn't getting it. I tried all over, any ideas?
