Roll 20 - RQ Sheet - bug with halved skill

[smiorgan]

 

Hi,

To those who are familiar with the Roll20 sheet. When I try to set weapons at half-skill in the Roll 20 RQ sheet - because they are used with a related skill - I get minimum skill (5%) instead. Is it a known bug of the sheet?

From memory that function uses half of the skill listed - and it depends on an exact match text look up. So if you have a “1H Spear” skill at 10% it’s working correctly.

Edit: I've now done some testing and it's definitely a bug. I've never seen it do that before.

No, it's not working correctly: as the "1H Spear" skill is 80, not 10. It correctly gets the 80 in the column after the clock symbol, but then it "halves" it to 5%. I'v tried with several weapon skills, Checking the 1/2 box either has no effect (if you do that after selecting the skill), or reduces the skill to 5% (if you first check the box then select the skill).

On what page did you put the 80% Smiorgan? You have to enter it on the skills page, I believe, and let it auto fill on the main page or it sees it as 10% (the base).

 

That said, any idea what the 1/2 does @Arcadiagt5? I do not notice any difference with it deployed or not deployed.

It’s supposed to support the “you can use any 1H sword at half your skill with another 1H sword”, e.g. if you were using a shortsword with your broadsword skill, you’d put in the Shortsword stats for damage etc, but link to the broadsword skill & put the half check box on. It’s worked for me before, I’ll see if I can do a bit of testing later this afternoon.

You are a gentleman sir, cheers.

Looks like it's a real bug. Not sure what's going on there, and I've never seen it do that before.

Why post this here and not the the Roll20 character sheet forum? I have fixed it and an update should be available by Tuesday given Roll20's update cycle.

Exactly. This how it's supposed to work, but it doesn't.

Great. Thanks a lot. I wasn't aware of the existence of a Roll20 character sheet forum. That's why I posted it here.

And who exactly do you think tested it, confirmed that it was a bug, and reported it to @dvdmacateer?

The fix appears to be live now.  Toggle the 1/2 default checkbox to reset  the skill value.

It works just fine. Thanks!
