This is in support of the Genesys RPG when played in the FFG Star Wars system. It allows for the addition of custom fields to actor sheets below the derived stats.
Features
- Add Custom Fields: Easily introduce additional fields to your actors through intuitive configuration settings and the Custom Fields dialog.
- Group Management: Organize related fields into groups for better structure and clarity.
- Flexible Ordering: Arrange the order of fields using a simple drag-and-drop interface within the Custom Fields dialog.
- Formatting Support: Create visual spacing and organize information by leaving field names blank.
Getting Started
Installation
- Download the Module: Obtain the latest version from the GitHub repository.
- Install in Foundry: Import the module into Foundry VTT via the Module Browser or by manually uploading it.
- Activate the Module: Ensure the module is enabled in your Foundry VTT game settings.
Configuration
Defining Custom Fields
Customize your actors by adding new fields through the Configuration Settings and the Custom Fields dialog.
Group Name
Organize your fields by grouping them under a specific name.
- Grouped Fields: Enter a Group Name to cluster related fields together.
- Ungrouped Fields: Leave the Group Name empty to create standalone fields. The system will assign a "placeholder" value, which will appear when the Custom Field dialog is reopened.
Ordering Fields
The display order of fields on an actor is determined by their sequence in the Custom Fields dialog. Reorder fields effortlessly using the drag-and-drop feature.
Formatting
To enhance the visual layout of your actor sheets, you can create empty spaces by leaving the Field Name blank. This feature is useful for organizing information and improving readability, as demonstrated in the example images above.
API or lack thereof
The fields are stored in the actor in _flags.lgs-extra-fields-for-star-wars.extraFields as an object:
[
{
"group": "Sanity",
"name": "Curret",
"value": 0
},
{
"group": "Sanity",
"name": "Threshold",
"value": 0
}
]
Important Considerations
Renaming Groups or Field Names
Be cautious when renaming Group Names or Field Names. Doing so will reset any stored data on the actor to 0. Ensure that you intend to reset the data before making such changes.
Compatibilities
This has been tested with module Alternative sheet design for FFG Star Wars using included custom actor templates include with that module. However modifications to those templates may affect compatibility.
Incompatibilities
This module may not be compatible with other modules that modify the default actor template. If you experience issues, check for conflicts with other installed modules and consult their documentation for compatibility information.
