Hey there, I'm working on a magic item right now that does a handful of things. The problem I'm having is that when I added a spell to the item it won't allow me to apply charges to said spell. I went around this by using the innate item charges which work but won't reset after a long or short rest. What I wanted was a number of charges equal to the Charisma modifier. If there are any mods on please help.
Unfortunately the magic items homebrew system doesn't allow for a dynamic number of charges (i.e. charges based on the ability scores of the wielder).
Also, currently magic item charges don't reset on short rest or long rest. There's work planned around that, as a lot of the official magic items do things like "regains 1d6+1 charges at dawn" so that all needs to be allowed.

So the lack of resets currently on magic items is a known issue?
