#TW reload discussion
ruby fiber
Where I am running into issues is trying to impact the PPE pool of the wielder, and that TW items take different ppe costs to reload.

You want to automate PPE deduction?
ruby fiber
I have a dragon juicer who has a TW sub machine gun. His item takes 3 ppe to reload the 40 shots of the gun. Its not one to one. I am not sure the system could do this with out a script. Maybe a reload macro?
glossy bronze
And just manually deducting the 3 PPE is too difficult?
ruby fiber
I dont think it is but it doesn't line up with the rest of the range weapons reload setup. I think it's more of an expectation.
glossy bronze
Fair.
So is there two issues? One is reload should be a single item that adds back 40 shots
And two, that action should cost 3 PPE?
ruby fiber
That is the basics, some TW items cost less and a couple cost more so any kind of solution would need to be adjustable. I think Ill reach out to see if I can get some help in Macro Polo.
glossy bronze
Yeah let me know what you find out
glossy bronze
That is the basics, some TW items cost less and a couple cost more so any kind ...
it's a little too hard coded at the moment but it works
ruby fiber
Holy... you are awesome! is that a Macro?
glossy bronze
Holy... you are awesome! is that a Macro?
yeah

for help I mean.
it has a little bit of rough edges you have to configure yourself
the biggest one being the powerpoints type
//
// Updated and expanded from Recharge Item Macro by Stendarpaval Foundry v0.7.9
//
//
// Configure target actor and item.
const actorPC = game.actors.getName("Burster");
const targetItem = actorPC.items.getName("TK Submachine Gun");
const rechargeCost = 3
const arcane = "Psionics"
const ppName = "ISP"
// Get Other Needed Variables
const itemCurrent = targetItem.system.currentShots;
const itemMax = targetItem.system.shots;
const ppType = actorPC.system.powerPoints.Psionics.value
const reducePP = ppType - rechargeCost
//
//
//
if (itemCurrent == itemMax) {
ui.notifications.warn("Your " + targetItem.name + " already has all of its " + itemMax + " charges!");
return;
};
new Dialog({
title: "Recharge Item",
content: '<form id="recharge-item" class="dialog-content"><p>Your ' + targetItem.name + ' currently has ' + itemCurrent + ' out of ' + itemMax + ' charges.</p><p>Do you want to recharge it?</p></form>',
buttons: {
one: {
label: "Recharge",
callback: () => {
let update = {"_id": targetItem._id, "system.currentShots": itemMax};
let updatePP = { "_id": actorPC._id, [`system.powerPoints.${arcane}.value`]: reducePP };
targetItem.update(update);
actorPC.update(updatePP)
sendChatMessage(actorPC.name + " has recharged " + targetItem.name + " and spent " + rechargeCost + " " + ppName);
}
},
two: {
label: "Cancel",
}
}
}).render(true);
function sendChatMessage(text) {
let chatData = {
// user: game.user.id,
// speaker: game.user,
content: text,
//whisper: game.users.entities.filter(u => u.isGM).map(u => u._id)
};
ChatMessage.create(chatData,{});
}
you need to change the variables under // Configure target actor and item.

kick ass John! this will totally work. In my game its a pretty single use case but I can set this up for anyone who is using a TW range weapon.
Thank you very much!
one other thing, where do I change labels for PP to PPE and ISP in the system? everything still comes out as PP.

that, unfortunately, is more difficult
ruby fiber
ah, I see it is just a label change in the macro, not within the character sheets. I am gtg.
glossy bronze

yeah, not strcitly necessary but thought it would be good to localize it to Rifts
ruby fiber
Also need to change "const ppType = actorPC.system.powerPoints.Psionics.value" to .Magic.value if PPE is involved.
You can also put macro links in the note section of an Item. very cool
glossy bronze
Also need to change "const ppType = actorPC.system.powerPoints.Psionics.value" t...
Oh yeah, missed that one, we can probably change that so "Psionics" is replaced with ${arcane} that way you only have to change the arcane variable.
glossy bronze
but have to work out the kinks

this should work

Nothing major here but tweaked some of the notifications and stuff for cleaner language. Same functionality.
