Sorry for asking the stupid question: where do we post bugs?
I am using b54 and I just saw that I cannot use any non-latin characters in my macro calculations :(.
the following works:
<!-- [toHit = d20]
[damage = d10+7]
[nonCriticalText = toHit+10+ damage]
-->
Με το guan dao σου χτυπάει το πλάι των ποδιών: {if(toHit==20,"critical for 17", nonCriticalText)} και prone

while this doesn't work:
<!-- [toHit = d20]
[damage = d10+7]
[nonCriticalText = toHit+10+ damage]
-->
Με το guan dao σου χτυπάει το πλάι των ποδιών: {if(toHit==20,"critical για 17", nonCriticalText)} και prone

And I cannot find any workaround :(

The Bug Report forum is a subforum of the MapTool forum.

As for a workaround, I was able to get it to work by setting it up so the unicode characters were never stored in a string(that seemed to be the issue).

Code: Select all

[h: toHit = d20] 
[h: damage = d10+7]
[h: nonCriticalText = toHit+10+damage]
Με το guan dao σου χτυπάει το πλάι των ποδιών: 
[if(toHit==20), code:
{
   critical για 17
};{
   [nonCriticalText]
}] και prone

One possible work around would be to "escape" the non-latin characters - however, I believe the Greek set are not included in the HTML 2.0 set; I'm not sure about HTML 3.0, I'm having problems finding a list.

I didn't split these posts into a separate thread in the BR forum, since I saw a BR for Unicode support already there...
