An Options Question - CoreRPG

[dulux-oz]

Hi Guys,

My brain is currently fried from lack of sleep, so I'm probably missing something really obvious, but...

What does the "Turn: Show Effects" Option actually DO? I can't seem to see any difference between it being turned Off or On, anywhere in FG.

Thanks for answering a such a stupid question.

It means that when it becomes a creatures turn in the combat tracker any effects currently active on that creature will be displayed in the chat window.

It just displays the effect text after the creature name. For example, the first turn line in the chat window is with "Show Effects" off, and the highlighted line is with it turned on:
