Nice IC post man, that kinda explained a LOT smile.gif

quick question, I've bought GAS grenades, but apparently you need the gas to plug-in ... any suggestions ?

phlapjack77 indicated that he's got some busy stuff going on RL, but I need him to verify that his chummer file is all up to snuff and ready to go smile.gif

I'd recommend Pepper Punch. Only costs 5 nuyen.gif per pop, does 7S and inflicts targets with Nausea, which can be a real killer.
Good enough for the few situations you actually want to use gas and cheap enough not to rue the purchase while you wait and wait for an opportunity to use it.

Sorry for the disappearing act, been (mostly) away from the computer for the last few days. Dak, sent you an email with my updated char sheet.

Hey no biggie smile.gif

Chummer file updated.
phlapjack77
I hope this character isn't too obnoxious. He's partially based him off of a real-life friend, and partially on the back-and-forth that goes on in Predator. I'm trying to make him "mouthy yet likable". We'll see how well it turns out smile.gif

There's an option in Chummer under Options / General / Miscellaneous to automatically save a backup of the character sheet when moving to career mode. That could be handy to check. smile.gif

Oh, and I noticed another error in my sheet. Picked up "Customized Body" twice instead of Body and Agility. wink.gif

After fiddling with the career mode in Chummer a bit, another question came up.

Chummer required Restricted Gear for every item you choose from the list, i.e. Armor (1x), an Armor Modification for the same Armor (2x), a Helmet for the same Armor (3x).

If that is how we do it, I will have to change a few things. smile.gif

I normally assume, that it is one piece of equipment (i.e. the Armor with mods and add-ons, like the Helmet).

I think it's because there are options in Armor modifications that are separate entities on their own . i.e. integrated weapons that are availability over 12.

Restricted gear as a positive quality does not make "R" gear legal for you,
only gives the ability to lay your hands on higher avail items,

it's situational if you are buying a "suit" of armor .. or all of the component parts.
I can only suggest run it past DAK and see what he says,

when you get the go ahead
no idea how to get chummer to work it other than increasing the availibility rules at the start of a new char OR sending cash past creation and buying the mod in career mode in addition to the armor you bought via the quality in creation.

(if you can't modify past creation, sell it for 100% and rebuy it with the mod ?)

That is why I am asking, so Dak can say something about it. smile.gif

The question is specifically for Military Grade Armor with the Mobility Upgrade Modification and Military Helmet.

Is this Restricted Gear Level 1 or Restricted Gear Level 3?

Everyone I know counts it as Level 1, hence the question. smile.gif

I thought that, but then my xenophobism kicked in and I remembered all the spiders, and snakes and mosquitos and ticks and malaria and ...

I'll just stay home with a cup of tea and some rich tea biscuits.

Yes we will follow this method.
Thanee
Ok. Then I will see how to make the appropriate changes. Will probably have to get some upgrades later, then. Shouldn't be a big problem. smile.gif

phlapjack77, do I have your final chummer file? I notice in the one I have now it seems you've not spend your extra 20 Karma, and don't have any knowledge skills.
phlapjack77
Yeah, I was trying to get the character to "gel" in my mind before buying KS. I'll do that today, I think Crispy has baked long enough smile.gif

Don't know about the extra 20 karma, could be a Chummer difference? I'll look at the version and whatnot when I get to work..
phlapjack77
I updated to the latest version of Chummer, and I don't see where I have extra 20 karma. Must be some of the options I've enabled in Chummer. Oh, I think I see - I have "Metatypes cost karma equal to their BP", so maybe that's it? Please let me know if I do, in fact, have 20 karma to spend! biggrin.gif

I've assigned my KS points now.

In other news, the new version of Chummer says I'm 19k nuyuan over budget, so I had to delete a few options on drones and commlinks and such.
Dak
In the copy I have, at the bottom it indicates that the character is valued at 750 Karma. You'll want to convert it to a finished character (Character Info tab, check "Mark character as Created", then save)

Once you've done that, you can add 20 karma, as well as your additional nuyen and spend it.
phlapjack77
Ok think I've got it done right. Sending to your email...
Dak
Got it. Looks good. Uploaded smile.gif
