    Help about Party Sheet: Parcels

    Helllo everyone. I have no doubt someone will be able to help me on this matter. Still a noob on FG, so thanks in advance.

    I tried to distribute the parcel after one of my players found treasure in a Dungeon, like usual.

    So i dragged the pre-made parcel in the inventory screen, then i assigned one item to a character by writing the name of said character on the assignment field, then the field have auto-filled the name for me, so i guess it was fine until there.

    But when i clicked on the middle button to share/distribute the treasure, it said no player with that name was found, or something like that. For all items, even after it was auto-filled.

    1) Did i do something wrong? I probably did.

    on the same topic:
    2) lets say one of the items in the parcel is [2] [Longbows], and i want to give it one to Rogue and another to Barbarian. Is it fine if i write: [Rogue, Barbarian] in the assignment field?
    It did not work when i tried.

    ive spent some minutes trying to find out the error and gave up so i could continue DMing, otherwise it would take too long.

    THX!

    You need to type in the character name exactly as it is including any capitalisation. I suspect that this is why it won't find the character.

    You can't assign a multiple of an item to different people. The only way I know is to change the number of the items to 1 and distribute it, then drag anther copy of the item in and distribute that.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    THX, gonna try it out.

    The second answer is a bit disappointing, tho.

    Put a comma between the assignment names - then it will split up the parcel item between the different PCs when you distribute the parcel.

    Oh, so my ideal was right. It was probably both a capitalization problem?

    I don't know what your issue was. I've tested in 5E and CoreRPG and both work fine using the <tab> key to auto complete names.

    If you have further issues, please provide a screenshot showing the problem.
