CoreRPG+ Extension: Has Initiative Indicator

superb Extn in combination to 'Matjam's-Status-indicators' Highly recommended for DM's

I love this, but I was wondering: Celestian, have you ever released an extension that does the TARGET indicator for CoreRPG? Similar to what we have on Ad&d, an overlay that is always displayed on the target.

Nope, that requires a bit more ... tweaking and then I'd have to manage an extension everytime a patch came out ;)

Oh, no worries about that then. I just thought you already had done it and I couldn't find it. Thanks!

This is just about the best .ext ever! Amazing functionality that should be part of Unity! Well done, sir! Well done!

Would you consider adding this to the Forge?

Sadly the crown appears on the map, but doesn't follow the combat tracker - just stays over one token.

It's not compatible with Savage Worlds, as SW uses a slightly different database structure for storing combat tracker data (due to the ability to group individuals together) - and this extension uses that data to know when to switch the active indicator.

I'll see about adding it. Working through my backlog on these.

It should be possible to handle Savage Worlds by replacing the line in onInit():

Code:

---

DB.addHandler("combattracker.list.*.active", "onUpdate", updateInititiativeIndicator);

---

with:

Code:

---

if CombatManager.CT_COMBATANT_PATH then
    DB.addHandler(CombatManager.CT_COMBATANT_PATH .. ".active", "onUpdate", updateInititiativeIndicator);
else
    DB.addHandler("combattracker.list.*.active", "onUpdate", updateInititiativeIndicator);
end

---

The Savage Worlds ruleset defines CT_COMBATANT_PATH in manager_combat2.lua:

Code:

---

CombatManager.CT_COMBATANT_PATH = "combattracker.combatantgroups.*.combatants.*"

---

It seems to work well in my tests.
