Chat issue going from 1.4.1.7 to 1.5.1

Post by xavram »

Wondering if anyone can explain this.

I opened the framework we've been using in 1.4.1.7 in 1.5.1 and everything loaded fine. All the macros seem to work, the HTML character sheets look good...but when anything is outputted to the chat window (via the Broadcast command in macros), the output is really odd.

1.4.1.7 sample -
attacks with Rapier, rolling a 18, getting a 46. Damage is 29. Critical Threat! To confirm, rolls a 14, total of 47. Crit damage is 46. Sickening Crit : Target is sickening for 1 minute!!

Same macro in 1.5.1 -
attacks with « meleeKey = Rapier »« listGet(extraMod,1) = listGet(2, , 1) =  »! : « MisfortuneText =  » rolling a « Roll = 18 », getting a « Roll+toHit+stateBonus+paToHit+pointBlank+reckless+favoredEnemy+MiscAttBonus-twoWeaponPenalty+BuffToHit = 18 + 24 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 - 0 + 2 = 46 » to hit. Damage is 29. Critical Threat! To confirm, rolls a 14, total of « CritRoll+toHit+stateBonus+paToHit+pointBlank+reckless+favoredEnemy+MiscAttBonus-twoWeaponPenalty+BuffToHit+criticalBonus = 14 + 24 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 - 0 + 2 + 5 = 47 ». Crit damage is 46. Sickening Crit : Target is sickening for 1 minute!!

Why are all the formulas that normally don't show in 1.4.1.7 showing up in 1.5.1? Is there some setting I have forgotten about...or do the macros have to be re-written for 1.5.1? God I hope not...

There's a setting in the preferences that could be responsible for this. Check the Chat Panel. These are the settings I use. I think its the tool tip for inline rolls setting.
