Hey, first post here, but first time working on some custom stuff. I'm working on a PC race that is small creatures that fly, so I wanted to set it so as long as they weren't wearing armor, their AC was 8 + 2x their DEX mod. How do I set this up in the editor? I've been poking with various settings and I can't get it to work.
Be aware that the AC calculation you've stated makes it possible to generate an AC less than 10, which isn't something that the system really caters for.
Setting up a modifier as below will generate the correct calculation, however, it will seem to behave a little oddly for characters that have a dex bonus of less than +2.

don't think you can. the only modifier choices are max, 2, or none. they'll have to manually edit it.

Another question - can you override any class hit die and set a default hit die for a race regardless of class?
