    This thread is for discussion of the Spells in Focus extension. This extension is collection of features for managing spellcasting and spell focus in Shadowdark.

    Core Features
    The following core features have been implemented:
    • A Focus button has been added below the chat window. Spellcasting checks can be declared as focus checks before rolling by clicking the Focus button. If a focus spellcasting roll fails, the spell is not lost.
    • When an NPC fails a spellcasting check rolled from the Combat Tracker, [Lost] is appended to the spell name.
    • Resting restores spells for both PCs and NPCs.
    • Successfully casting a focus spell adds a focus effect to the PC in the Combat Tracker. If a PC with a focus effect becomes unconscious, the focus effect is removed.


    Combat Option: Automate Spell Focus Rolls
    This extension adds a new combat option: Automate spell focus rolls. When this option is turned on:
    • If a PC has a focus effect, a focus spellcasting check is automatically made at the start of that PC’s turn.
    • If the check fails, the focus effect is removed.
    • If the check is a critical failure, the focus effect is removed and the spell is lost.
    • If a PC with a focus effect takes damage, a focus spellcasting check is automatically made.
    • If the check fails, the focus effect is removed.
    • If the check is a critical failure, the focus effect is removed and the spell is lost.

    When this option is turned off:
    • If a PC has a focus effect, a chat message reminds the PC to make a focus roll at the start of their turn.
    • If a PC with a focus effect takes damage, a chat message reminds the PC to make a focus roll.


    New Effects
    focus — marks a PC as focusing on a spell
    ADVFOCUS — grants advantage on focus checks
    DISFOCUS — grants disadvantage on focus checks
    FOCUS: x — modifies focus rolls by the value of x

    It is under review. I will update the first post as soon as it is accepted to the Forge.
