Growth under 6th Edition is no longer a level-based Power (like Density Increase). Also note that (as always) Growth is not intended for characters that are always large -- it's meant for characters that can change their size...so the bonuses are not fixed (and are not always present).

Then either: 1. Your mobile device is not sending the XHR request to the server (the request that submits the coupon code/gift card) -- entirely on you to figure out. 2. The gift card code that you're entering doesn't have any value (e.g. already used).

Yeah...no. Step 3 (a.k.a. Confirm and Pay). You enter the coupon or gift card code into the field provided and click the apply button. A valid gift card/coupon will be reflected in the (now revised) cost, an invalid one will show an error message beneath the field (in red) explaining what the problem was.

The option that is presented in HD is for multiple foci where loss of one allows the power to still function (at reduced effectiveness). The option that is being requested is for multiple foci where all foci are required for the ability to function at all (typically reflected by increasing the accessibility of the focus -- i.e. inaccessible -> accessible), where all foci are accessible, and the character suffers "some other restriction or drawback" when the foci are lost. In those rather restricted circumstances, there is an optional rule where the GM can assign an additional -1/4 to the Limitation value. The requirements for that optional rule to apply make it vastly more trouble than it's worth to automate (it would make Focus construction needlessly more cumbersome for EVERYONE in order to account for exceedingly rare occurrences). If all of the conditions described apply and the GM is willing to allow it, I would suggest taking a more conventional route and using either a variant of Side Effects or Limited Power (as the OP suggested).

Step 3 of the checkout process - if you're entering a code that's not being accepted verify that you're entering the right code (exactly as it appears). Email Jason if it's still not accepted.

that's just it - he didn't harm the dog in any way. You don't take a dog on a flight to Mexico, typically - you leave it at home and have someone look after it.

Seriously hate to do this, but I'm not sure that the dog bit is anything really bad on Cruz' part. He went on vacation (given the timing, that was _bad_)...and he had people keeping an active (supposedly 24hr) eye on his home...and taking care of his dog. That's inline with what I normally do, except that the folks I have watch our dogs typically stay inside the house. Not defending the "vacation" or Cruz (perish the thought), but I think the dog is the wrong angle of attack.

Just added an explicit "Browse" sub-item to it.

Please be aware that you're posting in the HD forum -- this is where you can get help on how to do something within HD...but you haven't really defined what you want to do -- use a different forum for that. Once you know the rules that you want to use to model the ability that you're after, if it's not clear how to do that in HD, then you come here.

Perseverance has touched down on Mars and is communicating.

You’re defining something that is outside of the rules of the system — the same answer applies. Custom Modifier for Limitations/Advantages that are outside of the core rules, Custom Power (or create a custom template) for Powers that are outside of the core rules. If “costB” is a standard Power, then just purchase it as such. If “costA” is a standard Skill, then purchase it as such. If “costB” requires a successful roll of “costA” then assign RSR to “costB”.

If (as you said) the files opened from the recent files menu, then they ABSOLUTELY EXIST. You're not looking in the right directory. Period. End of story.

No. See my reply above - you’re not looking in the directory that the files are being saved to.

I suspect a Java update...I was showing the same behavior under MacOS when I checked it...and the code that needed to be changed to add the window decorations back in hasn't been touched in a long time.

Main thing I'd look at is what directory you're looking in when going to File -> Open Character... HD does not perform ANY inspection of the files to display beyond the file extension, so if you're not showing any characters in the directory that you're looking in, then there are no files of the proper extension in that directory.

I just posted an update which should fix that...

Not to my knowledge...but it adds a bit of gravitas to the statement

To quote the late, great Constitutional scholar, Trace Adkins: "First Amendment? The First Amendment protects you from the government, not from me."

I neither create nor maintain the character packs -- if you find any errors in them, you'll need to submit a support request to Jason.

I'm going to go under the assumption that your initial question (and responses) are not disingenuous -- but be careful. You are correct, we don't know how many would have died under Biden...hell, we don't know how many actually died under Trump because he managed to politicize a pandemic and usher in a post-truth era (the actual numbers are looking to be significantly higher). What we do know is that the numbers under Biden would have been significantly less since there has been zero indication that he would have dismissed the pandemic...much to the contrary, he and Obama prepared for one. Any response would have been better than what we had and we had the potential to be world leaders in response (vs. leading the world in dismissing the pandemic as a "non-concern"). Those are not mutually exclusive factoids...and I would strongly encourage you not to post intentionally misleading graphics like that. When you are dealing with a predecessor who implemented massive policy changes through executive order and dealing with an immediate massive humanitarian crisis (the pandemic, which we have bungled on an epic scale) executive orders are needed to both reverse prior policy shifts by Trump (not Congress) and to bring the immediate action required to start bringing the pandemic under some modicum of control.

Keep politics to the political discussion thread, folks. (offending post has been hidden -- that will be the one warning given)

Once again: there is nothing to solve. The "problem" (such as it is) is between the user and understanding access permissions on their own system. HD cannot and should not bypass these.

Folks, keep current/real world politics to the Political Discussion thread, please.
