UA Mystic class (v3 2017)

Hello,
Does the new updated Mystic Class (Unearthed Arcana 2017) will be included in the next Community files?

The class is quite different than the homebrew based on the Psionic Handbook.

Don't know if i can put the link here...
 
If someone wants to do it and submit we can add it in. It's not something I'm personally planning on doing anytime in the near future though. I've banned this class at the table until it's released officially in a book.
 
I am starting something tonight. Mind you, I really don't know how to program (especially automate), but at the least I can do some of the grunt work and build class, features, etc templates. If someone, who knows how to program this stuff, is willing to work with me, we let's make it happen. Right now, I'm working on the base class as well as Awakened Order. Again, please let me know
 
Come work on it over at the GitHub with the Community Pack team so we can help as required. And if you are planning on submitting this to the Community Pack can you please set you name identifier to '5C'. This matches the naming convention we follow as will save alot of re-work.

Hero Lab Editor > Tools > Set User Identifier > 5C

This will put 5C into the name of every 'thing' ensuring we know it belongs to the community pack.

Also, HERE's our wiki with some useful stuff such as scripts to automate things.

Ans if you need to know how to do something, a great resource is the GitHub itself. You open it up and search for the name of something that you want to do in the search pane and it will return all of the code in the community pack where that thing has been modified.

For example, you want to add resistance to bludgeoning so you look up the name of the bludgeoning thing 'dtBludgeon'. Now you can see all of the code where dtBludgeoning has been mentioned.

Pro Tip: To get the names of 'things' in Hero Lab. From Hero Lab go Develop > Enable Data File Debugging. Now you can right click on stuff in Hero Lab to see their uniqueID and other info.

Great. I registered on Github, and changed the profile to 5c (e.g., cMysAwPS5C)

Once I have the basic stuff created, then I will upload
 
I started a thread there. This is where I am (and files attached for anyone who wants to review)

Hello All. I am attempting at creating the Mystic, from UA - Linked PDF to wizard site

Other than rudimentary coding, I haven't really done anything major. So, with that. I created the base class and Order of the awakened. Below are the items that are missing, sorted by Base class, Order of Awakened, and Disciplines (not started yet). I don't mind doing the grunt work of creating the base items, but do need help in the more technical areas.

Updated: 5/12
Mystic Base
DONE

Order of the Awakened

  • How do you make it to choose 2 bonus disciplines when you choose your order? It should probably work similar to the bard ability, but only let you choose certain spell schools (I made psionic ones)
  • Spectral Form (lvl 14): How should this be made, that when selected, it shows the benefits (e.g., resistance to all damage, half speed, etc)

Disciplines
  1. Discipline shows up as an ability: Will do fighting styles or Combat Maneuvers. Is there a way, when adding a discipline, it adds the focus as a tracked ability, or should it be made to class special ability? I think it would look better in tracked ability
  2. Discipline expands to individual powers (spells) in spell list. So, choose 1 discipline, and all the powers show on your spell list

Misc Stuff Done

  • Made Psionic schools
  • Talent powers

Misc Open
  • Can DCs be added to powers?

More updates made. Also listed "DONE" where I am done (or at least think i am). Some if it is as simple as having it tracked in specials (e.g., consumptive power).

I could really use help with Disciplines. It should probably work like this: You select a Discipline, and then each power is listed separately. The special ability is tracked in specials. If someone can help with one, i can make the rest
 
ANyone know how to track Psi Points? I took the Ki Points tracker and remade it to Psi Points tracker...however, it shows 0 points (vs 1 for the original ki). So the question...where do i set the math?

Also, interesting enough, the character sheet shows Ki (0/short rest)...I'm not sure where to go to change the word Ki

Recap:
Tracker: changed from Ki (trkKi) to Mystic Psi Points Tracker (trkPsiP5c)
 
So I'm working on the powers, but a bit stuck on a few items. If someone has ideas:
  1. When adding a Discipline, can I code the Discipline to add the focus to tracked resources? Bonus: Can they add to a drop down, so you can only select one Focus at a time?
  2. When adding the Mystic Order, what is the script needed to add the two bonus disciplines for the specific Order. So, if I add Awakened Mystic, it should let me choose two Disciplines, but only of the Awakened school.
  3. When adding Disciplines, anyway to have it so adding one Discipline adds all of the powers in the spells listed individually?
  4. Can someone show code for adding Spectral Form?
  5. Lastly, the spells tab shows spell slots for the Mystic...While incredibly minor, how do I get rid of it?----NOTE: Found it, used Spell points. The only sad thing, is the spell points in the SPells tab don't sync with the spell points in the tracked resources tab :(

Final question, what does clicking "requires saving throw" do?

Adding the Disciplines takes lots of time. Not exactly satisfying, but I hope to get 5-6 disciplines per night :)
