Template talk:3.5e Racial Traits

3.5e Darkvision Parameter Missing

Finally got around to using this template and found an omission. So, I'd just fix it myself, but I don't really trust my templating skills enough with something this complex. The problem is that we need a parameter for the darkvision template here to include the race's name (in lowercase, since it appears twice mid sentence). This is probably a quick fix. --Ganteka Future (talk) 21:06, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorted. Also fixed a case issue in the size call while I was at it. Thanks for pointing it out Gan :-) - Tarkisflux ^Talk 23:52, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Additional Ability Scores Parameter

Right now impossible to say: "+2 to any two of the following ability score" without making it incredibly awkward, perhaps we should have something like an Other parameter or something for ability score? --Leziad (talk) 00:25, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

Well, you could do

|attribbonus4=+2
|attrib4=Str, Dex, or Con
|attribbonus5=+2
|attrib5=Str, Dex, or Con

which would get you "One of: +2 Str, +2 Dex, or +2 Con, One of: +2 Str, +2 Dex, or +2 Con". It's a bit duplicaty though, which is potentially unclear. I have some time today, I'll think about it for a bit. Please kick my talk page if I don't have anything in a week. - Tarkisflux ^Talk 14:28, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

There a bit of a downside to that, since in that setup you could seleect say 'Con' twice for a +4. Also alright, take your time. --Leziad (talk) 14:38, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

You can now specify the number of selections you can make by sticking that number in front of the +/-. Like so:

|attribbonus4=2+2
|attrib4=Str, Dex, or Con
|attribbonus5=3-2
|attrib5=

which will get you "Two of: +2 Str, +2 Dex, or +2 Con, -2 to any three attributes". And I'm pretty sure the semantics are right for them as well, though you should keep an eye out. There's a lot of string parsing going on now and I might have missed something.. - Tarkisflux ^Talk 18:29, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Expanding Vision

I believe that we lack a parameter for both darkvision and low-light vision together (right now it one of the other) and it would be neat if we had one for Superior Low-Light Vision. --Leziad (talk) 16:14, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
