Greetings fellow adventurers!
This changelog encompasses a few changes over the past week, mostly in response to bug fixes needed and changes requested for the homebrew races/subraces feature.
Bug Fixes:
- Make the short description field on the race form available to all users
- Make the limited use quantity field available
- Make the "Is Varaint" field available when expected
- Fix reported typos on various forms
- Turn on notifications for approved races / subraces
- Display the correct large avatar field for users
- Automatically set a level for limited use level scale when no value is explicitly set by the user
- Update the copy functionality to copy correctly through racial trait options
- Hide top pagination on the homebrew races listing
- Fix the sorting on the My Creations listing for the Date Modified column
- Fix error with not being able to delete a racial trait if it had attached racial trait options
- Fix an issue where the moderator's note on subsequent rejections for a publish request were stuck on the original note
Changes:
- Add a column on the homebrew races listing to display the type (race/subrace/variant)
- Make any private homebrew details and more info pages for races/subraces available to all users in a campaign that has content sharing enabled
- Block the request to publish a homebrew race/subrace if it has any attached spells that are licensed content or private homebrew
- Update the homebrew listing to consolidate homebrew subraces of a homebrew race into the more info and details pages of the race, and not explicitly shown as a separate row in the listing
To talk about that last change bullet in a little more detail. We've decided to consolidate the homebrew races listing to provide for a little more clarity. Published homebrew subraces of a published homebrew race will no longer be shown as distinct rows in listing, but their data will be appended into the more info and details views of the race itself. The name and ability score search fields have been updated to search not just the race but it's subraces as well. When a user adds the homebrew race to their collection, the subraces will also be added automatically, as it's only the subraces that are select-able in the character builder. Subraces from official races (Dwarf, Elf, etc.) or variants of any race will still show as unique rows in the listing.
Also, when a user removes the race from their collection, all the subraces will be removed as well. If you create and publish a new subrace for your already published race, the new subrace will be automatically added to any users' collections that had already added the race. They can remove it from their collection after the fact, if they so choose.
We hope that some of these changes improve the feature, and we want to say thanks for all the great feedback!
Great fixes/updates. Thanks!
Yup. Great fixes/updates. Thanks.
The homebrew races listing will be a lot cleaner now, awesome! Keep up the good work, we appreciate it! Thanks!
I love the changelog button!
This change log button is amazing. Thank you for providing this.
Woohoo! finally! nice new button. helps a lot. ty
Ah, clever idea to block the publish request if the attached spells are copyright. Thanks as always for the detailed changelog
If I may make a suggestion for a future change, would it be possible to change the character sheet layout so that the "Description" and "Notes" boxes are at the bottom instead of "Limited Use" and "Equipment"?
Not sure if you guys are already working on it, but magic items weight don't seem to be halved from the common item.
