[Extension] Highlight particularly good or bad rolls
Hello everyone!
I made a little extension for my own use, but maybe you will find value in it for your games too.
I use homebrewed effects that trigger when the roll is above or below the target number by 5. E.g. a special attack that, when hits monster AC+5, can also daze it, or when saving throw is failed by 5 or more, the inflicted condition becomes even nastier. It is tedious to sqint at the tiny text in the chat and do math for every roll, so I automated this check. With this extension you can set up a threshold, and when a roll in a certain category (attack|save|skill) exceeds or falls below the target number by the specified value you will see additiona icon in the chat and a message that threshold [X] is exceeded, without specifying by how much. You can check the screenshots attached to see how it looks.
It may be useful to make successes and failures more visible, then just set success threshold to 0 and failure - to 1. You can also use it for emulating Pathfinder 2ed critical hits/misses mechanics by setting the thresholds to 10. Even though it will not make a hit into a critical automatically, at least not in the initial version.
If you are interested, you can find more details and instructions in the forge
Cheers!
