This is a little function that you can stick into your module (suggested spots: OnLevelUp, OnClientEnter, OnClientLeave) to write the player HP to the log file.
It logs the maximum HP, the maximum HP possible, the HP from CON+Toughness, the maximum HP from classes and the percentage of maximum possible HP the character has.
The information can be used to see if certain players are abusing the ability to 're-roll' bad HP rolls by hitting cancel in the level up process.
But keep in mind that low Hit Die classes like wizard/sorcerer/rogue/bard will most likely always be close to the maximum possible HP because of NWN never rolls less than 50% when rolling HD. Also remember that characters get 100% of their Hit Die for their first three levels.

Well there is one thing that is certainly right, canceling to get max HP is cheating... However, being able to attain max HP could be used as a incentive. Some servers out there utilize a wish system, is that cheating? it all comes down to the servers needs. Personaly I would use the option to max a PC's hp if they were stead-fast enough to make it to 40th level, and met a crap load of pre-req's as well. just MHO.
Bioware put that there because you cannot go back and change your chosen ability, skill points, feats, and etc. after you hit OK. If you do it just to reroll hit points, you're cheating.
You aren't allowed to reroll hit points in PnP, either. If Bioware intended for max hit points, they wouldn't have put dice into the level up process.

How is it a cheat to hit the cancel button in the first place? Sheesh, Bioware put it there for a reason, you know? I bet that the people who really like this kind of scripting are the same kind of people who won't pull over on long road trips to let thier kids go to the bathroom lmao

Personally, Mr. no-name (the one with the nazi dm message)I ban players for using the "cancel level up to re-roll HP" cheat (yes, it's a cheat), the same as those who hack characters, ect. I am gonna use this fuction to help me Isolate those players. Thanks for the great work Whistler!

Hey, anything made by OldManWhistler is a-ok by me. Which DMFI wand is it you made? I seem to recall the NPC Control Wand? Anyway, I had no idea that this was what people were doing - now I'm going to be all paranoid as a DM...yikes! Thanks for the warning!
