Feat Multiplier bug come back in version 1.3.12 / 1.3.13

[MatheusSLF]

Describe the bug
Since the upgrade from version 1.3.11 to version 1.3.12 and later version 1.3.13 of Toy Box, the bugs with the feat multiplier reappeared, where every time that uses the feat multipler in any of companions, the feats apply retroactively or present the well-known strange effects in the choice of the feats.

But in version 1.3.11, the feat multiplier remains stable, aside the issue of recommendable feats that were automatically selected but didn't show up on the abilities page.

Version Info:

• ToyBox Version: 1.3.12 / 1.3.13

Can you provide a save that is not dependent on other mods with a level up that shows the issue, along with steps like what char, class, etc I have to choose?

[MatheusSLF]

Sure.

I just use Toy Box, none other mod was aplied.
I tested again and the issue don't happen in the 1.3.11 version, but in the 1.3.12, 1.3.13 and 1.3.13.1 versions, the issue come back.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. I just normally level up with exp in the inicial phase of game
2. Them go up with Toy Box
3. Activated the Feature Selection Multiplier with higher than one in number placer
4. And them, several other strange (such as backgrounds) feats go applied withoud being selected

I get a load failure on your save. What other mods was this created with?

[cabarius]

I managed to reproduce it myself with your excellent instructions. Thank you for those.

Strange, i don't use any another mod with or without Unit-based, but I'm glad you managed to got into the problem with the instructions.

1.3.14 I'm having this bug too, feat multiplier is applying to previous levels including background selection.

1.3.17 same.
it also happens cockblock you by fake selecting features
for example:
if Feature multi 2> Seelah always "pick" longsword weapon focus,but she does not get it and you cant select it in feature selection,because the game already "took" it. if multi is set to 1 then longsowrd is pickable.

Actually I'm pretty sure they do actually get those feats it's just you have no control over them and it can take some ones that just make the character more cluttered without helping, like rapid shot on a zen archer. Try saving before leveling and then checking if she is getting the bonus +1 to attack rolls.

[ShadyGuy666]

have you ever seen longsword focus on Seelah despite her picking it every time? no ?
in my test they dont but i tested only level feats,not class feats.

Hey so I am facing the same issue. For all companions when I use the slider a bounch of feats are added during levelup but not at the end. This does not happen with the PC. This happens in version 1.4.3. An example with Sheelah in the first level ups:

1. She starts level 1 without Weapon Focus - longsword:
   
2. I level her up to level 2 and at the final result page Weapon Focus - longsword is magically added. I did not pick it up, there were no options for feats at that level.
   
3. After the level up the Weapon Focus - longsword is not in Sheelah's feat list:
   
4. Then I level here up to level 3. During level up I cannot select Weapon Focus - longsword because the game thinks that it was already selected.
   
   The result screen for level up to 3 also contains Weapon Focus - longsword.
   
5. The final feat list for Sheelah does not contain Weapon Focus - longsword.
   

So what I think is happening is that the game sees that there should be 10 feats per level that gives feats. It also sees that the companion does not have enough feats. So it adds a bunch of random feats. But only during level up. The fake feats are not actually added to the companion when level up finishes. But since the game thinks that those feats are added it does not allow us to add them normally. So we cannot pick Weapon Focus - longsword during levelup.

I hope this will help you fix this issue. It is a bit annonying to not be able to use this feature with companions.
