Please explain what the the "Encumbrance: Container/Item Volume" On/Off option does. I can't find any information on this.
Thanks for the nudge. I added this to the README:Quote:

This EXTN compared to the '5E - Additional Storage (Bag of Holding)' Is it newer ? Replacing ? I ask as I saw lots of comments on the '5E - Additional Storage (Bag of Holding)' from you as I assumed a user of the old extn
Technically competitors, I guess (you only need one or the other). I posted over there because some users asked about features that extension didn't have but mine does. I also posted to compliment the author as the approach used in that extension is quite lightweight compared to mine from a performance standpoint. On large inventories, mine is doing a lot more work and that could slow down games on slow computers.Quote:

Not sure if you are looking for suggested enhancements but one thing that doesn't seem to work are coins (unless I'm doing something wrong). Not sure how difficult it would be but having a little clickable option to the right of the coin boxes to indicate that the coins are in extraplanar storage would eliminate the coin weight when coin weight is normally turned on for non-extraplanar storage. It wouldn't specify which container if a person had more than one but I suspect that really isn't super important. Probably more important to just nullify the weight.
The workaround to this currently is to just not use the coin boxes and create item entries in the inventory that can be attached to the container that holds the coins.
Since there is a workaround, it's not critical but I thought I would make the suggestion in case you were looking for potential enhancements to this.
Thanks for all your work on your extensions, bmos. You are far better than I am when it comes to doing this sort of thing. :)
I think you might want to look at my Coins Weight extension. See the link in my sig.Quote:

Sounds like an FG bug or something, especially since you're having that with multiple extensions.Quote:

Any advice would be appreciated.
PS. All other mods on and running no errors, turning extra planar on creates errors. This was not happening 16 hours ago. :(
Thanks for that. I rolled back the update I just pushed out this morning since there must be an issue with it.Quote:

Okay, looks like some rulesets use other names for the inventorylist windowclass :eyeroll:
That's what I get for not testing in every ruleset lol
Should be good now.
Groovy, just checked no error message. Thank You for the quick response!
Extraplanar Containers v1.12
* Allow collapsing containers via double-click (very helpful for large inventories that can be very hard to manage).
* Use alternate chat messaging so that 'overfull' messages are broadcast to all users.

Weeee! LOVE IT!
In inventory I create Items such as "potions', 'weapons', etc. then place those item types in the category to help with organization. Is it possible to put those into a bag of holding and have all the items under it count as if in the bag? example: place 10 different potions in a "Potion Rack", then place the Potion Rack into the Bag of Holding. Currently it only reduces the weight of the Rack and not the items in the Rack.
Small Readme error.
it says
Supported containers can have their contents hidden by right-clicking on the name of the container. They will remain collapsed until they are expanded again, either by double-clicking or by editing their name to remove the "[+] ".
and for me it is double-clicking to collapse or Un-collapse the container.
I LOVE THIS FEATURE BTW
Now, for a feature request (if it isn't already). I would like to make non extra planer items collapsible, say my belt pouch or my potion holder... and still allow their weight to be correct.
Thanks! I fixed the README.Quote:

You're welcome! Let me know if you have any suggestions for more container names!Quote:

I tend to agree. My attention span stinks these days.Quote:

Enhancement request for more intuitive design:
- Containers which are collapsed already have a [+] prefix. Have containers which are not collapsed a [-] prefix. Otherwise you'd only know of this functionality if you've read the readme.
So this MAY be something for a new extension, but could we get similar collapsibility on the abilities tab. Perhaps anything with matching [brackets]? so I could make [Level], [Racial], [Rogue], [Alchemy]...or [combat], [meta]... [future feats]... class abilities for multiclass [Cleric], [Rogue]...
Zarestia has an extension coming soon that might be a good fit for that idea.Quote:

Unfortunately if I add [-] to the container name I have to add [-] to the location for all the items in the container.Quote:

That's not to say it's not a good idea, but just that it's more complicated than it sounds.
I'd probably do it by reimplementing via a widget rather than changing the name and I haven't gotten around to that yet.
Nope - another one. It will take 1-2 weeks as even another one is coming tonight/tomorrow and I need to fix some things in my running campaign first :DQuote:

Gotcha, I see.Quote:

Also, when I add anything to the inventory of a character (or just change the quantity of something already there) the encumbrance skyrockets as if there were no extraplanar containers until I manually put something somehwere (such as refreshing a "bag of holding" location, or saying "that dagger is inside your shield.. just kidding, it's just there" so the script triggers again.
and yes, tried it standalone with no other extensions loaded (ehehe I've learnt my lesson ^^)
And what version number is listed when you first load your campaign?Quote:

If I were you, I'd delete the whole vault folder and re-update. It sounds like you have some issues with permissions on that folder or something.
You shouldn't be having to download updates manually anymore, Forge auto-updates are working great for most people.
If re-downloading the whole vault doesn't fix it, you might want to check with support on Discord.
If you don't have time to figure out that issue, you can also subscribe to each extension to get an email when they're updated.
Sign up for Github, then go to the "Watch" button and pick "Releases Only" https://github.com/isaacs/github/iss...ment-442385230
What is this "Vault folder" you speak of? (can you give an example folder chain?)Quote:

Perhaps easier to open the FG Launcher, click Settings, then click Troubleshoot, then click Clear Vault.
Hey thank you for the response. Weird, I do not seem to have a fgdata or vault anywhere the PC can find. *L
/users/(name)/AppData/Roaming/SmiteWorks/Fantasy Grounds
It's in the base FGU folder where your campaigns, extensions, etc. folders are. If you haven't fiddle with the installation, it should be in that folder you listed.Quote:

Looks like after the update there is an issue with spacing and text on the weight line for items in 5e.
Edit: it is working for some items (left) and not others (right) in s3 below:
