    [Extension] - Weapon Handling - Versatile and Offhand attack

    I created this little extension to get rid of the several copies of the same weapons in the action tab ( 3 longswords, 2 daggers, 2 battleaxes and so on )
    It provides a new button to identify the weapon attack as 1-handed, 2-handed or offhand.

    • In 2-handed mode if the weapon has a Versatile property the new damage will override the base damage dice. ( Longsword, Battleaxe, Quarterstaff )
    • In off-hand mode the ability score modifier is not applied to the damage.
    • It's also possible to enable the "Two-weapon fighting style" to ignore the previous rule.
    • One-handed mode is the default behaviour ( nothing change )








    Possible issues:
    I was aware of 2 main conflicts with other extensions: "5e Action Abilities" and "Advanced Effects". I managed to let them work with some workaround. I'm not sure if there could be more problems.

    Further consideration: I don't like the icons i'm using at all! If you like this extension and you come up with better ideas let me know please!

    Very nice! I was just contemplating going through all my player's Actions tabs to add the 1-hand, 2-hand & off-hand attacks but this extension has saved me the hassle.

    Very good extension! I couldn't get it to work with tridents (any) or the Dwarven Thrower as they have more than just "Versatile (XdX)" in their properties.
