Default Re: GDF Weirdness: Multiple Prerequisites (needs()-Tag)

NOTE: I haven't read the pyramid aritcle you're working on here, so I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to do with the modifiers you're creating.

There's no reason why you can't create a new tag for complexity. GCA allows you to create any tag you want, and to call the value of that tag. New tags can even have math in them, and will solve the math. I do exactly this in the Enchantment modifiers. The only thing that GCA doesn't do is allow you to target those tags with bonuses.

e.g. you could add the tag complexity(3) to all the software modifiers you're creating can then use owner::complexity to call on the owning equipment/software's base complexity level to use in calculations for cost multipliers. What you can't do is use the gives() tag to increase the complexity() tag of the software.

It should work if I understand what you're trying to do.

It seems to work now, mostly.

You'll find it here, see inside the file for comments on what's will need fixing.

Specifically, the two minor faults are:
(1) Really correct program costs with the High Complexity Software modifier (right now it's showing $9999.99 instead of $10000) and
(2) limiting the Program Techniques to 0CP, whilst calculating their level only from the prereq skill minus technique difficulty plus program bonus (or with additional -4 without a program). Right now you just have to keep in mind for yourself that you may not raise the techniques with CP.

Apart from that, everything works.
