Hide Groupbars

An Add-on Module for Foundry Virtual Tabletop

The D&D 5e group sheet shows every player the HP and Hit Dice bars of all party members. The numbers are hidden from players who lack Observer permission, but the length of the bar still gives away the party's condition down to the percentage point — and there is no system setting to turn it off.

This module hides those bars from players. Their own character stays visible.

In the example below, only Raykja Kjell keeps her bars — the character that player has Observer permission on.

Settings

All settings are world settings and visible to the Gamemaster only.

Changes apply immediately; open group sheets redraw themselves.

Good to know

Foundry sends actor data to every client and permissions only control what is drawn on screen. A player who opens the browser console can still look up another character's hit points. This module keeps the party's state off the screen — it is not protection against someone deliberately digging for the numbers.

English and German localisation included. Verified with Foundry VTT 14 and dnd5e 6.0.6, also tested against dnd5e 6.1.0.
