Random Encounter Generator
First iteration of this extension, which adds a button to the Encounters window. Select your party size and party level (it comes pre-populated by the party sheet entries), and your target Threat (i.e., Low, Moderate, Severe, etc). Click Generate New Encounter and you should have a new encounter ready for you.
The encounters uses any monsters you have loaded, including campaign custom entries. It also adds hazards. Sometimes encounters can fall a little bit out of the budget XP.

This is now available at the Forge. This extension goes well with the Encounter Builder Extension and Weak/Elite Extension

Versioning
0.1 Initial release
0.2 Added trait filter and level range. Adds non-module npcs to the pool of monsters to select (i.e., campaign monsters).
0.3 Fixed bug for Encounters over level 5 introduced in 0.2.
Known issues:
* Currently only up to two unique monsters are added;
* NPCs (Monsters) and Hazards currently are not mixed;
* Right now the generator is very strict on similarities: I want to add more flexibility, like allowing one-step alignment differences to count as similar;
Edit: There is a (paid) new version of this extension in the Forge if you want to check out, including many other features: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...ment-extensionLast edited by dsaraujo; March 30th, 2022 at 15:51. Reason: new release

My players didn't end up having any random encounters last week, but they did this week, and this tool was super helpful!
Only bit of feedback is - I don't know if this would be easily possible, but it would be nice to have a button to quickly delete the encounter if desired? For when it takes a couple rolls to get a good encounter; would help avoid cluttering the encounter list.
