Well, I found and enabled the new GM Grant thing (thanks again so much for that!) but it doesn't seem to be actually giving my character a Force Rating point. I still only have the one from starting with a F&D spec and another from beelining down said spec to the Force Rating talent.

It wasn't meant to be a boost, but a grant of a 1 FR, just like if you bought into one of the Force trees or specializations. If you already have a FR, there's no point in giving one out for free.

Request.

the ability to select a group you have set up to print with an encounter. So basically when you hit print it has a drop down and you select the group and it will include all those PCs into the encounter.

Hey Ogg, great changes in the latest rounds of updates! Thanks for fixing the Camaasi!

Feature request : Can we get a toggle to not print our current XP and credit values, so we can pencil in those values in their respective boxes? I'm not one to reprint every session, but it does start to look kind of messy to have big bold font crossed out with penciled-in notes in the "margins".

Thanks again for all your hard work!

That was basically what the "Acquired Experience" box was for, so you could write on-the-fly changes to your XP between printings.

i think you might have missed my feature request.

I didn't miss it Adding a group en mass is an interesting idea. But not all members of the group will necessarily be playing during a particular session. What might be useful would be to have a special adversary filter that wound filter PC Adversaries based on the group(s) they belong to. How many of you would find this useful?

I haven't needed it in my own campaigns, but I thought this was actually the point of this option. I thought it represented the GM granting the players an additional Force Rating, so that, for example, starting F&D characters might have FR 2 or something.

I've got one suggestion (if no already made) : would it be possible in the GM tools to have a box to check in front of each NPC saying whether she's dead or not ? Might be useful to keep a record of some major villains rather than deleting them 'cause they were shot dead by the party...

Ran into a bug with the GM Tools (and sorry if this has already been reported; the thread's freaking huge )

The program is not recognizing the Form Technique talents to allow the NPC to use a Characteristic other than Brawn for the Lightsaber skill. I tried this with all five of them, and in each case the stat block based the dice pool on the NPC's Brawn.

There's a button that appears at the top of the talents list that allows you to choose the characteristic to use. You need to select one of the technique talents, and you need to check the Lightsaber skill in order for the button to appear.

There's really no concept of "dead" associated with a saved adversary. They can all be reused in other encounters. What you might want to do is modify the name of a one-shot adversary so it has "DEAD" after it. You can then use the filter to look for all "dead" adversaries.

You could also just change their name to something else and abuse your PCs some more

Suggestion: is it possible to add a search function to all filters as the one for adversaries has proven very useful.

Yes, it's possible, and yes, It's a good idea, and yes, I'll get to it eventually One place I think it'll be really useful is when you create a new vehicle. There's a TON of vehicles now, and being able to search on "x-wing" would be very useful in that dialog.

Hey, I don't think the damage on the ancient sword is being calculated properly. It shows as 0 dmg when I go to print.

Someone already beat you to it It'll be fixed in the next release.

Oh, and nobody's noticed yet that droids are able to take FaD careers That's going to be fixed in the next release, too.

Well if characters aren't there you can cross them off. Or perhaps edit them out after. But i think it would be useful to pull everyone in and remove a few than hunt down everyone to add them piece meal.

But a droid can take a F & D career, they just can't use any talents with a force rating prerequisite.

Which models things like magna droids and Grievous rather well.

By RAW, if you can't become Force sensitive, you can't take specializations (and, by extension, careers) that give you a Force rating. EotE CRB, pg 275: "Because these species [e.g., droids] cannot become Force sensitive, they cannot select the Force Sensitive Exile specialization."

And Grievous was a cyborg, not a droid

Okay, so there's no way of using your program (short of creating a duplicate Human species with an inherent 1FR) to represent my character for the game I'm in?

Right now that character has 3FR. 1 handed out by the GM at game start, 1 from Mystic - Advisor, and 1 from the bottom of that tree.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but I believe using the force powers involves rolling a number of force dice equal to the number of Force Rating points. I do not have Force and Destiny, but I think his GM is manually increasing his Force Rating in order to see how powerful these Force powers can get. This is just based on reading the Force Powers section in the EotE core rulebook.

I think it's actually the other way around, a droid can't take a career that gives you a a force rating, but can take an individual spec as these don't give a force rating (except the exile or emergent, which are specifically taken to give peeps access to the force). So you can't start in an F & D career but can buy in to a F & D spec, this was clarified by Sam Stewart in a recent order 66 podcast.

This may be a nit picky thing but I will say it anyway...(BTW YOU ARE KICKIN' @$$ IN THIS CHARACTER SHEET OGGY BEN DOGGY KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK)

Ok so on the 1st page of the char. sheet...in weapons...Aesthetically could you put the 2 weapons in a separate space??

Right now it has the weapons list......

Weapon 1

2 weapons icon..."Weapon A/Weapon B"

Weapon 2

Weapon 3

and so on.

Could it be instead...

Weapon 1

Weapon 2

Weapon 3...

<SPACE>

2 Weapon Group 1 "Weapon 1 / Weapon 2" --Notice that there is a space between the weapons that are listed in the quotes

2 Weapon Group 2 (If Any)...

Or put the 2 Weapon Group before the list of other singular weapons. (Of course with all the dice pools and other stuff)

Also the "Stun Setting" could that be the very last thing that is on the Weapon description? If people modify their weapons I don't think that the first thing they want to see is whether or not the gun has a stun setting and then all of the mods on the weapon.

Just a suggestion take it w/ a grain of salt. I know that I and many people use this program and IT IS AWESOME!! So I think I speak for all of us when I say that this is great what you are doing Oggy Ben Doggy!

Oh BTW is there a way to lesson how many pages are printed in the print preview?? Instead of 5 pages that have the list of talents and such, you can select which pages you want to print before going into the Print preview dialogue?

You can usually choose which pages you want to print FROM the Print dialogue. It's a standard part of most print controls for most printers. Is that what you're looking for?

No I mean before you goto the Print dialogue. I know that you can specifically print pg x y z... I mean before you get to that part and turn it into a PDF

You can remove the full talent tree sheet in the options (you can also add a vehicle sheet). The smallest the PDF will be is 4 pages. Page 1 for skills, page 2 for obligation and background, page 3 for talents (no tree), and page 4 for inventory.
