Starting Wealth by Level?

[scibat]

I found the table in the Pathfinder rules for starting wealth for higher levels character than first, but cannot see a way to do this within HeroLab except by manually adding/changing the wealth. Is there a function to do this that I am simply missing?

That would be cool to have in the popup when you first start a new hero. You'll see Name, NPC/PC, wealth.

At this time, I think you have to adjust it manually, but WBL would be sweet.

You have to input it manually. If your using traits, such as Born Rich which grants 900 gp at creation, you gotta input it from the character config screen.

For PCs you can just enter in more gold, either at character creation, on the configure hero screen, or after a character is started from the tabs.

for NPC there isnt a good way. the best option would be to just give them all their gear for free.

I'd like to point out a WBL drop down in the config hero screen would make a lot of DM's lives SO much easier!

This is still true. I want to endorse this.

+1 to this.

Since the groups I play in usually require an alt (in case of character death during a session) on standby and this alt has to be the level of the lowest character in the party, this would be so useful.

Hovering your mouse over the gear value number near the top of the program will pop up the values for your current level. Gear value is shown once you have any weapon, armor, or gear item.

Actually, we're currently exploring some exciting changes to the way money works and is added. Starting wealth would be included in that. Should hopefully be in the next release.

Oh so looking forward to that update!

Does this feature exist on the iPad version?

Just tested on my iPad and the Money update is working fine there.

I'm specifically looking for the Gear Value feature on the iPad app. I cannot seem to find anywhere that allows me to see my net wealth like I can on the desktop app.

I don't think they added that part to the iPad. I went rummaging around and have not found anything like it. Which is a shame as that is a very useful aspect of the desktop version.
