I imagine this is answered somewhere already, but I'm not sure what to search for. I'd like to know if it's possible and how to add a new section to the tray on the right.

I've only used Savage Worlds, but I'm assuming what I'm about to say is roughly the same for all. I'm taking about the bit that has PCs, Vehicles, Items, Skills, etc. In the Library window, you can choose which things show up there. That's the bit in talking about.

It's it possible to add stuff there or would I need access to the base Savage Worlds module?

This required FG coding. You'd need to write an extension to add a new data type. The data types are defined in the aRecords LUA table - for Savage Worlds this is in scripts\data_library_sw.lua.

scripts\data_library.lua in CoreRPG has some details on the various fields.

That should give me somewhere to start. Thanks.
