Testing scripts for Foundry VTT

Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

A simple module that contains 164 markers (1-100, A-Z, a-z, and some symbols) in 4 compendia for a DM to use to mark their maps.

Installation

Install Markers either directly from your Foundry instance from the Setup's Add-ons page or use this module.json link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flamableconcrete/fvtt-markers/main/src/module.json

Usage

This add-on consists solely of 4 compendia. No more, no less. They are the following:

  • Markers (Numbers): 100 tokens

  • Markers (Alphabet lowercase): 26 tokens

  • Markers (Alphabet uppercase): 26 tokens

  • Markers (Symbols): 12 tokens

Use these compendia just as you would any other! The tokens themselves are categorized as Actor types. I have found them useful to throw on scenes to cross reference with journal notes.

Acknowledgements

Big thanks to Paul Umber's article on Building Compendia for Foundry VTT so I didn't have to do most of my editing through Foundry itself.

I created all the images using Gimp and the freely available Dalelands Uncial font.

Developer Notes

Mostly a note for future me here, but this repository is interesting for a Foundry VTT add-on because the final zip file that gets used and full structure doesn't show up here directly. It gets generated via GitHub Actions using a combination of npm install, npx gulp build, and npx gulp dist. Then it gets posted as a GitHub Release on the Releases page.
