I've been trying to create a ring that has charges for some spells that resets on a long rest. I have set "Charge Reset Condition" to Long Rest, but it always says "Reset: Special" when you're looking at the spells in the character sheet. I've tried Long Rest, Short Rest, and Dawn, no matter what it always lists "Reset: Special" and clicking Long Rest on the character sheet does not reset the charges for the item.
Yes, I've saved it, removed the item from my character, refreshed the character sheet page, and then re-added the item, still stuck on "Reset: Special"... I also tried creating another version of the ring from a copy of the first one, and creating another one from scratch. Regardless of the version I try, when I click on misty step in the spell list, it says "3 charges, Reset: Special", and the charges do not reset when I click on the long rest button...
I have purchased everything in the marketplace, even the new map pack, and I have a DM subscription, so it's not a case of not having access to the content. I have also tried this on 3 different character sheets just to make sure it wasn't a broken character sheet. It was tried on a level 3 Minotaur Fighter(Champion), a level 7 Warforged Monk(Way of Shadow), and a level 20 Vedalken Wizard(School of Necromancy)...
Homebrew Magical Items don't currently recharge from activating a short rest or long rest on the character sheet - you'll have to manually add the charges/uses on the character sheet.
Many of the official magical items have recharge of the form, "Gains 1d6+1 charges at dawn" so the recharge system needs to allow many different options and isn't there yet, sorry!

Are you remembering to click save after changing it?
You also may have to remove the item from your character and re-add it.

Post a link to the item so mods can look at it. (You don't need to publish).
