>Summary: Parenthesis in a formula caues parse mistake

Initial Comment:
You have exposed a code bug where a parenthesis in a formula in any
ADD will cause a parse failure and force the formula to 1.  TM, bug
please.

Please use the following as a workaround (though you can use a
variable other than PERSONALFEATADDER if you wish)

1<tab>ADD:FEAT|PERSONALFEATADDER|Dodge,Track,Power
Attack<tab>DEFINE:PERSONALFEATADDER|if(TL>1,3,1)

TP.

OP:
Hi guys,

I am trying to get a class to apply 3 feats at first level or a choice of
one of the three if your character level is greater than 1.
I have put this line into the class file.

1<tab>ADD:FEAT|if(TL=1,3,1)|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3

It seems to always evaluate the if() to 1.

 1<tab>ADD:FEAT|if(TL=1,1,3)|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3

This line will still only give the choice of 1 feat.

 1<tab>ADD:FEAT|3|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3

This line will give the choice of all three feats.

Has anyone else had similar problems?

OS: XP sp2
Java: 1.5

Thanks

Craig

I think Equal as boolean operator under JEP needs to use "==" instead of "=".
Try whether "if(TL==1,3,1)" works.

Cheerio,

I tried your suggestion ... still no luck  :( 

I also tried the following:
1<tab>ADD:FEAT|if(TL>1,3,1)|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3
1<tab>ADD:FEAT|if(TL<1,1,3)|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3
1<tab>ADD:FEAT|if(TL=classlevel("Fooclass"),3,1)|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3

No luck with any of these either.

If I use the following:
1<tab>ADD:FEAT|TL+1|FooFeat1,FooFeat2,FooFeat3

I get a selection of 2 of the feats.

Totally confused, as this should be fairly simple.
