Chummer Build 356 Available

Build 356

  • Skill Specializations can now be set when an Active Skill is Grouped in Career Mode, though doing so breaks the Skill Group
  • fixed an issue where breaking a Skill Group in Career Mode would unlock the Skill Specialization fields for the now-independent Active Skills
  • Skill Groups can no longer be re-combined if any of their Active Skills have a Specialization
  • Dice Pool for the selected Spell now includes any Spellcasting Specialization bonus if applicable
  • added a Dice Roller button for Spells, Drain, Complex Form, Fading, Weapon, and Vehicle Weapon dice pools that appear if the Dice Roller option is enabled
  • added an option to save a backup copy of a character before moving them to Career Mode (disable by default) (see below)
  • fixed an issue where the programs added from a Program Package would not be correctly associated with their parent and would throw an error when selected until the character was saved and re-loaded
  • fixed an issue where adding Gear from a custom PACKS Kit could cause packaged items such as Program Packages to create their plugins twice
  • selecting a Cyberware Plugin attached to a Vehicle Mod no longer throws an error
  • validating a character when moving to Career Mode now includes checking Cyberware Availability
  • Gear can now be added to Cyberware and Weapon Commlinks (see below)
  • windows and controls should now be more large font friendly
  • Skill tooltips now show all Rating and Dice Pool modifiers instead of only positive modifiers

Creating pre-Career Mode Backups
When enabled, the Create backup of character before moving them to Career Mode option saves a copy of the character to your Chummer\saves\backup directory before they are actually placed into Career Mode, allowing you to go back and make changes to them in case they were placed into Career Mode prematurely.

Cyberware and Weapon Commlinks
Commlinks can now be added to the Commlink Cyberware and Weapon Commlink Weapon Mod items. This is still a little experimental, so please save a backup copy of your character before playing with these. These can only be applied to character-held devices; this behaviour will not be applied to Vehicles.
