[Pcgen-trackers] [JIRA] Commented: (CODE-476) PFCR Conditional skills: PREVARNEQ not giving right result

Andrew Maitland commented on CODE-476:
--------------------------------------

Confirmed behavior using the updated changes.

Looking at the Survival Skill I see this interesting tidbit:

PC Modifier: +3[Survival (Follow or identify tracks)] +3[Survival] +3[cskill SURVIVAL GTEQ 1|skill SURVIVAL GTEQ 1|TYPE=CLASSSKILL] +1[STAT] -9[OTHER]

Mind you, I only put only 1 rank in survival, and using the dwarf example.

>             Project: Code
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 5.17.4 (Alpha) 
>         Environment: WinXP
>            Reporter: Paul Shipley

> Under certain conditions, PREVARNEQ is not returning the correct outcome.  Order of operations with BONUS??
> To replicate:
> - PFCR only loaded
> - Create new Dwarf Fighter 1, all 10s
> - Before any assigning skill ranks, look at the standard OS: there is (correctly) just a single Survival entry (as Survival (Follow or identify tracks) is being PREVARNEQ'd out in pfcr_skills_conditional)
> - Now add 1 rank to Survival
> Symptom:
> - There are now both Survival and Survival (Follow or identify tracks) entries in the skills list, despite both having the same MISC modifier and hence in theory should be PREVARNEQ'd out
> Possible workaround in Data (untested):]
> - We might be able to kludge using something like VISIBLE:if([controlvar],EXPORT,NO) and adding a controlvar for each conditional skill bonused in the relevant racial ability, but this feels nasty
