Default How do I set Attributes higher than 20 in GCA4?

Hi there,

I'm using GCA4 and I'm adding a horse that has ST 22. When I edit ST to 22, it resets to a max of 20. I tried poking at some options but no dice. I set the Rule of 20 to 0 but that's for skills as far as I can tell.

Thank you so much!

Well, I was able to fix this by using GCA5. Those the default is to max ST at 20, there is a `maxscore` property that can be altered. Nice work on GCA5, Armin! I rather like it

The Basic Set file does not include attribute limits of 20. If you're seeing those limits, they're being set by one of the files you're loading. (My guess would be that it's the GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 3 file.)

Note that GCA4 also allows you to change the maxscore() tag. Edit the Attribute, click on Full Edit Window, and it's the maxscore row.

Finally: Thanks! I'm glad you like GCA5. I'm working on some initial documentation right now, then hopefully we'll work on getting GCA5 officially released.

You're right! DF 3 was the culprit!

Code:
************************************************************************************************************************
[ATTRIBUTES]
************************************************************************************************************************
#ReplaceTags in ST:ST with "maxscore(20)"
#ReplaceTags in ST:DX with "maxscore(20)"
#ReplaceTags in ST:IQ with "maxscore(20)"
#ReplaceTags in ST:HT with "maxscore(20)"
Thanks for pointing me to the `maxscore` option in the full edit window
