    5E - Kit'N'Kaboodle

    Current Version: 3.0.3

    Introducing: Kit'N'Kaboodle. This extension focuses on enhancing interactions with items. The following features are provided:
    • Adding actions to items. When an item is equipped any of its actions will be shown on the characters Action Tab, either under power or weapons (right click to move).
    • Adding charges to items. This allows ease of tracking charges on items. Each power on an item can also be configured for the number of charges used on activation.
    • Adding inventories to NPCs. The primary benefit of this feature at present is to give NPCs items that have Actions.
    • Item recharging. The ability to configure automated recharging of items.
    • Time-based recharge. When used in conjunction the the Clock Adjuster extension items may be configured to recharge daily at Dawn, Noon, Dusk, or Midnight.
    • Adding automation for what happens when an item is fully discharged (or consumed).
    • Equipped Effects Support. When the two extensions are used in conjunction, the power automation feature of Equipped Effects will add the power to the item.
    • Automatic Effects data. Leverages data in Automatic effects to automate item recharge configuration for items equipped while using Equipped Effects and Clock Adjuster.


    The following improvements are in the works:
    • NPC Loot. Improve the flow for giving items from defeated NPCs to the party.
    • ???. What would you, dear user, like to see?


    Check it out on The Forge or at GitHub and please let me know if you have any comments or concerns.
    Hope it helps!

    If you wish to buy me a coffee, I would be extremely grateful. Though please don't feel any pressure or obligation to do so!

    Sounds great, MeAndUnique! Will have to check it out when I get some downtime to play with it!

    This looks interesting. Which build is it for?
    I've added it to FGU, and apart from adding an interactable Inventory to NPCs I can't seem to get it to function.

    I can get it to display an action entry when I have a bunch of other extensions Installed, but I can't make it define an action.
    When updating charges I also get an error message.
    (Handler error: [string ""]:20 attempt to call field 'updateUses' (a nil value)

    Tested on a new campaign with no other extensions or modules added, and could not replicate any functionality beyond interacting with the NPC inventory field.

    In case anyone else experiences this, Frank was kind enough to provide a ton of details so I am actively investigating a solution.

    Edit: Should be fixed in the latest version.

    This is awesome! I've been looking for something like this for ages. One thing I did notice is that setting charges on an item assigns that number of charges to each power individually, and they are all tracked separately. I tried making a Staff of Power and it looked like this:Capture.PNG

    It'd be good if you could assign a separate number of uses per action, and/or have overall charges per item. No idea how hard that is but regardless, this extension is awesome!

    Edit: Never mind, ignore me, it does track charges together!

    I'm glad you like it! Improvements to charge handling are next on my agenda, though there are some challenges as far as presenting a clean user experience (feedback always welcome). In the meantime, the Staff of Power (excellent example by the way) does track charges collectively; try ticking 5 charges off from Cone of Cold to represent a cast.

    Yeah, I think my brain just didn't register it. It's looking great so far but I did notice that the Attack Roll and Save have been combined into one button, which causes a bit of extra work for spells like Ice Knife, which needs both.

    It'd also be useful if you could group certain items together in one power list in the actions tab. For example, my rogue player has a couple of different magic arrows which she cycles through and at present, they are all separate power groups. It'd be good if I could group them under 'Ammunition' for example, but I imagine that might mess with the group power bonuses?

    Thanks for bringing Ice Knife to my attention, I should be able to have some improvements in the next update before too long.
    Item grouping has been on my radar, but its low-ish on the priority list until I come up with some inspiration for a good flow. The main challenge is that I want powers to be "effectively" in a group for the purposes of spells that should honor a caster's spellcasting abilities, but keep them visually distinct to avoid confusing of the Staff of Power's Cone of Cold being listed alongside other spells, for example. So having a different system for allowing item power to be grouped outside the item is tricky without making the whole system extra confusing. The special arrows are a good use case though, so I'll keep it in mind.

    Great ext!
    I tried to drag the fireball spell over to the powers on a necklace of fireballs and here are the errors I got? This was working fine before Feb 16th. Any thoughts? Thanks!
