Cannot overstate how hyped for this update I am. Possibly the most excited I've ever been for an update. New actions tab sounds like an absolute game changer, and I can think of so many times I've wished for that "to me" targeting.
I'm one of those people who live dangerously and run their campaign on the test branch, so you'll definitely be getting plenty of feedback from me. :)
I'm exited too, especially as it might coincide with the start of our long-awaited Age of Ashes campaign. It's in the planning since late last year, but we're currently still finishing up Abomination Vaults first.
Is it possible to add "Exploration Activity" to the Order tab of the Party Sheet? Probably easy to integrate that into the Watch Order section. Just as a drop down or something.
Tracking a PC's chosen exploration activity is something I have planned for the future, but I'm not planning on doing that in this release. I don't want to start adding to the scope of Release 19 - it's already a lot of work. What I have in mind will probably be in the Party Sheet and this release doesn't have any Party Sheet changes planned.Quote:

Can this be already accessed already on some other FGU branches? Like Test or Dev?
Not yet. There'll be an announcement in this thread when it's available for the first round of testing and what to do.Quote:

The new ones today are:

I'm hoping to get this into the test channel after the current main FG testing is complete: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...Release-v4-3-1
Ooh, those look cool.
Regarding pinning the floating character sheet windows to the bottom bar - I notice that they are just titled with the character name. Would it be possible to have them title with the character name and which sheet it is? Would make it a little easier to keep track of which link leads to which part of the sheet.
EDIT: Also, two small suggestions for the activities functionality (which is absolutely amazing, by the way, I am more stoked than I've ever been).
1) When rolling against a creature's DC, can the DC be shown to the GM? Currently it's not shown to either, and giving that information to the GM is helpful in case a moment later the player realizes they forgot a +1 or something.
2) When setting a DC with the new Roll DC field (did I mention absolutely amazing?), an option to make the DC "sticky". Often the entire party will be making a Recall Knowledge check (or perhaps a Reflex save!) at the same time, and it would be nice to not have to reset the DC after each roll.
Thanks for the feedback Maxastro. I really appreciate it.Quote:

1) Good idea - I'll look into providing that.
2) What you see now is a very basic implementation. I'll provide a "sticky" option in future.
You can what? Huh. I should really try right clicking everything.Quote:
