Removing a mob from published story

Running into a bit of a problem on my arc.

I made a healing based LT for my primary villain group and added him in after the story was published. In testing I am finding him to be a pain on larger teams so I would like to remove him, however when I click it says "Base Group" or something like that and will not let me remove.

Is this a bug or some limitation on published arcs.


On a side note I see the same problem on my local copy of the arc, but I can just remove the mob from the text file and call it a day.

I had that same problem.

Just go to that character and "edit". Go through to the last screen where you pick what group it is in and change it there. (Make up a new group if you have to)

Brilliant!!

Thank you, I will try that tonight.

I moved the mob into his own group to be part of a separate ambush during the final boss battle. The stacking of healing was a bit too much on larger teams.

I'll have to use that. I had the same problem. Trying to delete custom characters once they exist, seems a real pain. Is there any way to delete a custom group? I haven't been able to do that either.

Oh, that's what that Base Group means.

I've realized that all critters have to have a Base Group when they are created. This is the group that will appear under their name in the game, and it must exist. (If it doesn't, the group will be created even if it doesn't have its own file)

You can then put the same critter in another group, but its Base Group will always be where it "lives". So yeah, changing it will allow you to remove it from this secondary group.

I need to edit the Base Group of a lot of my characters.
