PFRPG - Character Wealth Extension

Description:
As a GM for Pathfinder, I find myself tediously calculating each character's wealth in an Excel spreadsheet.
This extension adds a chat command to calculate a character's wealth in gold pieces from the items in their inventory.
You can also calculate the party's wealth and all characters wealth, including those not in the party.
Hope some people find this useful. Please provide feedback or any bugs you find.

Rulesets:

• 3.5E
• 5E
• PFRPG

Extension:
Attachment 38523

Github Link:
https://github.com/Wattabout2ndBrkfs...alth-Extension

Dependencies:
Tested on both FGC v 3.3.11 and FGU 4.0.0. Works on both.

Usage:
/charwealth [character name]
"character name" is the exact name, including spaces, of the character you wish the calculate the wealth for.

/charwealth -all
This command prints out all characters' wealth and the running total

/charwealth -party
This command prints out all party members' wealth from the party sheet and the running total

Notes:

• You must be the Host in order to use this command.
• You must enter the exact character name you wish to calculate the wealth for. Spaces in the name are okay.
• It looks at each item and creates a running total of the character's wealth.
• The format of an item's cost must be a number, followed by a space, followed by the cost type.
• The number must contain numerical characters. Commas can be used.
• There must be a unit type for the cost or else the item will be excluded.
• The cost types must be either "pp", "gp", "sp", or "cp". The letters for these can have any case. Any currencies besides these will result in that item being excluded from the total.
• 1 pp = 10 gp; 1 gp = 1gp; 1 sp = 0.1 gp; 1 cp = 0.01 gp
• If an item is not added to the character's wealth, a chat message will be displayed with the item name and a description.
• Gold pieces by default are not a part of the character's inventory. These must be added manually to a character's wealth.
• Compatible with 5E. However, there are items in the DMG whose cost is a range. These are not calculated into total wealth. Also, electrum is not supported.

Compatibility with Other Extensions:
This does not modify any existing code besides adding a chat command. The calculated value is outputted to the chat.

This means you can commercialize it or do anything else with it, as long as they give you credit for the parts of your work they use and they too release it under the same license.

Version:
v1.0.0 - Initial release for 3.5E and PFRPG rulesets
v1.1.0 - Added support for 5E ruleset and added "-party" and "-all" options

Future Improvements:

• Automatically add a character's gold into the character wealth
• Possibly add a UI element
• Done - Add ability for GM to calculate each character's wealth from a single command, instead separate commands

Acknowledgements:

• Thanks to FeatherRin for getting the ball rolling on v1.1.0

Since the first comment is mine, I will add the newest version I made here for easy access.

What's more in my version?
- Handles estimated item ranged prices such as: '101 - 500 gp'

So I did this:

I would post it but your license dosen't allow me. Let me know if you want it.

Wow, why didn't I notice this before 'wasting' my time building this into my inventory UI...
Honestly, I like your approach of posting it in chat much better.

Hi FeatherRin,

Thank you for testing it with 5e. I don't use 5e, so I didn't test it for that ruleset.

Yes. I can add it to the code if you are willing to share.

My personal upgrades (Tested only in 5E)
-Removed fancy lines to fit the all command.
-Added "/charwealth all" catch, which outputs each pc's total item wealth and also the total party item wealth.
-Currently ignores all characters with 0 wealth even when solo checked, but you dont need it anyway. (I was too lazy to bother)

Released v1.1.0
Updated extension with two arguments. One calculates wealth for characters only on the party sheet. The other calculates wealth for all players, including those not on the party sheet.
Added support for 5E ruleset as well

Hey, its me again!
If you want player coins included as well, stick this in before nodeInventoryItems ;)

Code:

---

        local nodeInventoryTreasure = DB.getChildren(nodeChar, "coins");
       
        if nodeInventoryTreasure then        -- If the inventory list is not nil --               
                for k, nodeCoin in pairs(nodeInventoryTreasure) do        -- For every item in the inventory list --
                        local sCoinName = DB.getValue(nodeCoin, "name", ""):upper();
                        local sCoinAm = DB.getValue(nodeCoin, "amount", "");
                       
                        if sCoinName == "GP" then
                                nRunningTotal = nRunningTotal + sCoinAm;
                        elseif sCoinName == "PP" then
                                nRunningTotal = nRunningTotal + sCoinAm * 10;
                        elseif sCoinName == "SP" then
                                nRunningTotal = nRunningTotal + sCoinAm * 0.1;
                        elseif sCoinName == "CP" then
                                nRunningTotal = nRunningTotal + sCoinAm * 0.01;
                        elseif sCoinName .. " " == " " then -- Don't spam for empty cells. --
                                --Nothing
                        else -- Currency is defined, but is not a standard currency --
                                sChatMessage = "" .. sCoinName .. ": Excluded. Non-standard currency used";
                                printChatMessage(sChatMessage);
                        end
                end
        end

Happy bodging!

ps: might as well credit me in the xml :p
pps: elifs break automatically, you dont need to break them.
ppps: i think everything is core func anyway, just set it to any and let people try it out without guarantee
pppps: no one uses electrum, dont even bother

...also here's a "concat" to solve the '-' problems.

It grabs the second (highest) number of the two with minimal effort and no (extra) memory usage. At higher levels it's inaccurate, but at that point I doubt people care.

'101 - 500 gp' => '500 gp'
'10,000 - 50,000 gp' => '50,000 gp'

Code:

---

                                if string.match(sItemCost,"-") then
                                        sItemCost = string.sub((string.match(string.reverse(sItemCost), "(.+)%-")):reverse(), 2);
                                end

---

It has to go right before this part, otherwise it will mess up the conversion.

Code:

---

local aCostData = StringManager.split(sItemCost, " ", true);

---

Here's the file for those who can't wait for WatBot2ndBrkfst and can't do it for themselves.
Added:
-Counts player money (coins/treasure) towards total.
-Support for estmated range prices such as '101 - 500 gp', uses higher number.

Mind if I steal this? I've just been skipping those items and 'complaining' about it in chat.

The whole code is there and the whole file is included one comment below for reference. Feel free to use it as long as you credit me.

Attachment 40354 What am I doing wrong? This is what I get when I attempt to /charwealth a character or party.

is it my or Brkfast's version?

I suspect you have a problem with your currencies not being properly set up, but this is not enough info to go deeper :)

It looks to be breakfast

Here is a shot of the character and extensions running

Well, you seem to be running my version (1011).
For me it seems to run fine, but you can try running the original 1.0.1 instead.
Tell me if that works. If it does, its my fault and I will try to find out whats wrong with it.

Ah, yes, I found it.
The '-' concat was just thrown together and is garbage. If an item price is not set up properly it throws and error.
Use 1.0.1 or fix the item prices of items manually for now.
'x - y gp' is the only way it accepts range prices.

Thank you for your answers. I will get 1.01, my 'programming' experience ended with Apple IIe.

btw, does pathfiner use special item prices? like a-b gp or stuff?
Please write down what dosent conform to the current script in your inventory.
If its a range, it has took like this:

Just about anything I can think of just has one price - haggling or price variations are entirely up to GMs.

Try checking prices of magical items in player inventory.
Some costs are broken by default.
If you find anything thats not a standard price eg (50,000 gp) or (100 - 1,000 gp) on the item prices, you can edit it manually there. Delete the costs lines, or change them to what you want.

FOUND IT! Thanks. The cost of a Sling was -

SO, note to others, check for items that have no cost, lol

This is a small patch that fixes a crash related to my garbage concat.
Now it should ignore '-' containing strings that are too short to handle.
(anything too short is meaningless but was unhandled before)
