A FoundryVTT module that lets the GM soft-lock and hard-lock client settings and keybinding controls for all connected clients.

Requires libWrapper.

• Foundry VTT: V13 – V14
• System: System-agnostic (works with any game system)
• Dependency: Requires libWrapper

• Nik's DnD5e Tweaks – Consolidated collection of quality-of-life enhancements and combat automation tweaks for DnD5e.

• Nik's Token Tags – Automatically numbers duplicate combatant NPCs (A, B, C…) with color-coded letter overlays.
• Nik's Shared NPC Initiative – Groups NPCs of the same type in combat so they share a single initiative roll.
• Nik's Movement Control – GM controls to toggle player movement and automatically restrict/allow movement on combat start and end.
• Nik's Tiny Change Logs – Compact, single-line chat messages logging token HP and Temp HP changes.

• Nik's Compendium Search Tweaks – Configure which compendium packs are included or excluded from native sidebar search.
• Nik's Show & Tell – Share popout images to chat and paste image files directly into chat messages.
• Nik's Zoom / Pan Options – Touchpad and scroll wheel pan/zoom controls and canvas navigation enhancements.

• Hard Lock 🔴 — Forces the value to the GM's choice. Players cannot change it. The UI input is disabled and changes are blocked programmatically.
• Soft Lock 🟡 — Applies the GM's value once. Players may override it permanently. If the GM re-enforces the soft lock, the new value is re-applied.
• Settings Support — Lock any client/user scoped setting from any module, system, or core — including settings managed through sub-menus (e.g. core interface settings, AV configuration).
• Controls Support — Lock keybinding (control) configurations, ensuring consistent hotkeys across all clients.
• Inline Lock Icons — Lock toggle icons appear next to every lockable item in both the Settings Configuration and Configure Controls windows.
• Lock Manager — A dedicated management window with a filterable table of all lockable settings and controls, type-appropriate value editors, keybinding display, and type filter buttons (All / Settings / Controls) for quick navigation.
• Interactive Update Prompt — When a GM batch-saves changes to settings that are currently soft-locked, an interactive prompt allows them to quickly select which soft locks to update globally for players.
• Re-enforce Soft Locks — Re-publish all soft locks with a new revision so players receive the GM's values on their next login.
• Export / Import — Save and restore lock configurations as JSON files. Includes both setting and keybinding locks.
• Clear All Locks — Remove all locks at once from both the Settings Config and the Lock Manager.
• Live Enforcement — When the GM changes a lock, all connected clients are updated immediately via socket.

Locks are applied to all clients (including GMs) on page load. At runtime, GMs are exempt from the enforcement wrapper — they can freely change settings or controls, remove locks, and save without being blocked.

1. Open Settings → Configure Settings
2. Lock icons appear to the left of each client/user setting name
3. Click to cycle: Unlocked → Soft → Hard → Unlocked
4. Right-click to cycle backward: Unlocked → Hard → Soft → Unlocked
5. Changes are saved immediately and broadcast to all clients

1. Open Settings → Configure Controls
2. Lock icons appear next to each keybinding action
3. Same click/right-click cycling as settings

1. Open Settings → Module Settings → Nik's Settings Locks → Open Lock Manager
2. Browse, filter, and manage locks for all settings and controls in one place
3. Settings show type-appropriate input controls; keybindings show key combo badges
4. Use the toolbar buttons for export, import, re-enforce, and bulk clear

Soft locks are applied only once per revision. If players have overridden a soft-locked value, clicking Re-enforce Soft Locks bumps the revision of all soft locks. Players will receive the GM's values again on their next login.
