I have a feat that has limited uses. The uses scale at certain levels. It has 64 uses, so it uses the + / - buttons rather than individual squares that you check off.
However, every time I use more uses than the level 1 maximum (4), I get an error that says I can't use more uses than the maximum number of uses, which should have changed as I've leveled up.
Note: Since my original post, I have modified the feat to have a "base" value for limited uses equivalent to the maximum possible number of uses (71), which is now overridden immediately at level 1, and lowered to 4. This is working fine for me.
However if you change that base value to 4 or delete it, it goes right back to the way it was - specifically, broken.
Would it be helpful if I delete my "fix" so that a moderator can see it as it was originally written before my kludge was introduced to fix the problem?
That's definitely odd behaviour though! I've had a look and I don't see why that would fail if you have a 4 as the base number of points.
I'll take a more in-depth look at scaling options tomorrow, to better understand how it works and edge cases like you've run into here and then report findings back to the devs.
Thanks! Yeah this was a weird one but to be far I've been doing some weird stuff to make Psion work as a subclass of wizard, this is just the latest in a line of really cobbled together stuff I've resorted to.

D&D Beyond FoundersHi there,
can you provide a link to your homebrew feat please, so a moderator can take a look (you don't need to publish it)?

D&D Beyond FoundersI'm glad you've found a way to make it work.
That's definitely odd behaviour though! I've had a look and I don't see why that would fail if you have a 4 as the base number of points.
