My DM has said that through reading literature in game, my arcane firearm now has a +1 to my spell attack modifier. I've created a homebrew item which adds 1 to bonus - spell attack, but when I equip it, it does nothing. Is there anything I can do to make this work or to add +1 to my spell attack modifier?
Did you accidentally set the item to require Attunement? If so the item must be attuned.
Nope, doesn't require attunement - I've set the modifier to spell attack bonus, with the fixed value of 1
So you did:
Modifier—>Bonus
Modifier Subtype—>Spell Attack
Fixed Value—>1
Is that correct? Just making sure I have the facts straight.
If you did that, try re-saving the entire magic item. That will trigger the system to pick up the modifier. Then just be patient, it might take the system up to 20 minutes for those changes to push through to the character sheet.

That is correct, and thank you. I resaved and left it, and it registered. You're a star.
