The Custom Compendium Categories and Random Stuff Update

Changes:

Fixed a crash that occurred when connecting clients received certain network packets out of order.
Fixed token status icons not appearing correctly when toggled by players instead of the GM.
Add string equality comparison support for if() meta functions.
Scrolling (with the mouse wheel) on compendium tabs and character sheet tabs will change the open tab. [1]
Compendium categories can now be customized. Choose what default compendium .json files are loaded, and add arbitrary custom categories.

1. The actual clickable tab labels do not scroll to follow the tab changes as you would expect, yet. This is a problem with the current Tab system, and will need a custom solution that will take a bit of work. It will be fixed eventually!

To customize your compendiums:

[olist]

Navigate to your campaign's folder, found at: Windows: %APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Gothic_VTT\campaigns\local Linux: ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/Gothic_VTT/campaigns/local

Open the "campaign_properties.json" file, which will look something like this:


{
"default_map": "default_map",
"init_sort": false,
"compendium": [
"weapons.json",
"armour.json",
"items.json",
"spells.json",
"abilities.json",
"tables.json"
]
}

If your file is missing the "compendium": [] portion, open your campaign in Gothic VTT and then hit Control+S or close Gothic VTT to save the campaign. This will update the campaign_properties.json.

The order of the various "x.json" files in campaign_properties.json is the order that the tabs will appear in the in-game compendium, if you use one tab more than the others move it toward the top of the list.

Remove any .json files from below the line with "compendium" (line 4) you don't use, or add entries for custom compendium categories for things like vehicles, monster manuals, merchant inventories, etc. [/olist] Custom compendium .json files should contain an Array of Dictionaries, use the example file below if you don't understand the assignment. Each dictionary should have a "name" and "description" key, whose roles are self explanatory. Here are the contents of an example "vehicles.json":


[
    {"name":"Car", "description": "Four wheels, very very fast."},
    {"name":"Bicycle", "description": "Two wheels,  faster than walking."},
    {"name":"Plane", "description": "Many wheels, but flies instead. Much faster than a car!"},
]

After updating the campaign_properties.json or any of the compendium .json files, you can refresh the compendium in-game using the 'Refresh' button on the compendium tab.

Built-in System-agnostic Character Sheets

Customizable character sheets support any system from the ever-present D&D, to that fantasy heartbreaker from the 90s.

The Hotbar displays all the information a player or GM cares about in one compact space, making GM-ing large combats or managing multiple playable characters a breeze. Gone are the days of dozens of tabs worth of stat blocks cluttering your monitor!

Robust Macro System

Roll dice, edit your character sheet, send predefined messages in chat, and even play sounds at one press of a button.
Customize the color and text of any macro button, and where they should be shown on the Hotbar
Support for user-defined variables, which can include mathematical equations and/or any value on a token's character sheet.

Support For Almost Any TTRPG System or Wargame

Default Character Sheet values and macros, as well as compendium weapons, armour, spells, and tables are defined in .json files and stored independently on a per-campaign basis. Easily customize Gothic Virtual Tabletop to suit each and every one of your needs.
