I run LMoP and the adventurers completed Cragmaw cave. when party received the parcels and started allocating the loot, I found out that I can't split item stack to multiple people, only one name can be assigned to the stack and gets all.

Even if I drag & drop another instance of the item from the library to the party sheet, it increments the count. I can't split using ctrl/alt/shift, the only way is for the item to have different ID in the database, as the Healing Potion, as there is unique instance of the item in the module.


Is there trick to make PS do my bidding, even an extension for that? :)

Maybe give the 3 swords to Sarah and she can pass one on to James and Jenny?

I thought that if your typed in "Sarah, James, Jenny" that it would distribute one to each? If there were there more it would leave the extras behind. Did that change?

Yes, it works! :) I didn't try putting multiple names. This is fantastic, can't wait for the players to get the next parcel now!

Can players pass items between each other?

My players will just basically tell one another I give you x. The giver will delete it from the character sheet and the receiver will add it.

Alternatively, one can move it to the party inventory (on the party sheet) and the other can grab it off.

Thanks for the hints. We are using the party sheet for first time intensively :)

Or they can drag the item from their inventory onto the other PCs portrait.

Oh, I was not aware of that one. So the portrait in the the top left hand corner then? That makes life simpler.
