Onasaki: How in the world do you get the stats to finalize?
Raze_Larian: After you distribute any stat points, the X button (Close) at the bottom of the window should change into a checkmark button (Commit Changes). Left click the window and move it up, if the button is off-screen or hidden behind the UI at the bottom of the screen.
Here is a screenshot of the
stat window, showing (from left to right):
- the starting stats
- just after reaching level 2, with 5 stat points to distribute and '+' icons by all the stats
- 4 of the 5 stat points put into strength and constitution, so the X 'close' button becomes a checkmark 'commit changes' button (and there are '-' buttons to remove the recently added points)
- after applying the changes, with 1 bonus stat point still left
You can safely close and open the stat window without applying the changes, but if you save the game and reload, any distributed but not confirmed stat points will be lost. You can use
iZakaroN's SaveEditor (or from
Kiya's site, with description) to get back these stat points, if you kept playing after noticing this problem.
Well here's insanity I've yet to encounter. For some reason the stats window opened up with that entire bottom section *behind* the health indicator in such a way that the stats window appeared locked to the bottom toolbar. I had no idea that confirmation button was even there before I read this. THANKS FOR THE PICTURES!! THAT'S WHAT SAVED ME!!
Fortunately the stats panel can be moved to reveal the close/confirm button.
Interestingly, the 'commit changes' tooltip showed up if I hovered the cursor over the healthbar but I couldn't click the control until I had moved the stats panel.
TL;DR Move the Stats Plate to reveal the "Confirm" control.
