How can I change the cost of character attributes?

I want to change the cost of presence and stun.

Thanks....

You have to edit the template that is in xml. You should look at the last few pages of the hero designer manual it describes most of what you will need to know.

I beleive you would edit the basecost of the stun type to get what you want.

this is the original xml code for a standard hero template.


<STUN DISPLAY="STUN" BASE="0" LVLCOST="1" LVLVAL="1" MINVAL="0" MAXVAL="999" POSITION="14" NCM="50" NCM40="40" NCM60="30" NCM10="15" NCM10NICE="15">

to change the cost of stun to half you would have something like the following.


<STUN DISPLAY="STUN" BASE="0" LVLCOST="1" LVLVAL="2" MINVAL="0" MAXVAL="999" POSITION="14" NCM="50" NCM40="40" NCM60="30" NCM10="15" NCM10NICE="15">

so you change either the lvlcost or the lvlval depending on what you want it to do.

Thank you!

It's working great. Heroes now will pay 1/2 point for stun and presence.

I've wanted this ever since they first released Hero Maker waaaayy back in... gosh, was that 1990? 92? 93?

Anyhoo, it's been a darn long time and I thank you.

:cool:
