Learn about hit chance, and saves using new addon

#1 Post by jenx »

I've created a new addon, verbosehitchance.

http://te4.org/games/addons/tome/verbos ... ave-chance

This addon displays MUCH more information to the screen about hit chance for melee, archery, and most of the talents that give the player or npc a chance to save. It helps one understand the importance of DEF, Physical/Mind/Spell Power and Physical/Mental/Spell Save, and their interaction. A LOT can be learned about the game by using this addon. Because it overrides many key files, assume it is incompatible with other addons.

Says Auto: Incompatible when I try to turn it on in the Addons menu. Says the version number is 3.9.42?

Just click auto manual. Not sure how to make compatible

Begin by setting the version correctly ;)
It's the *target module's version*, not the addon's

Except of course that you failed to set the version number correctly yourself, DG, which is why a lot of addons are being rejected as incompatible. The old modules numbers followed the pattern 3.9.betanumber, but this one is 0.9.43 for some reason. Setting the addon to that version fixes the error, but looks really strange on the addon list.

I was under the impression that the change in version number formatting was intentional since a non-beta, 1.0 release is now planned.

How do I do this once it's uploaded? I can't find an edit addon option.
