Action Item Action Tab (SR5 v0.16.1, FVTT v11.315)
The Action tab is where the action happens. It includes selectors to control a wide variety of parameters, divided into categories.Action Item [ edit ]
Test Details
- Test defaults to
Success Testand cannot be changed.[explain 1] - Type sets the type of action[sr 1]. The system doesn't currently enforce any sort of action economy so this setting is primarily a reminder, though it has to be set to something to unlock the other options in this section.
- Extended controls wether it's a regular Success Test or an Extended Test[sr 2].
- Skill and Attribute control what values contribute to the dice pool. It will initially show fields for one Skill and two Attributes; selecting a Skill will hide one attribute.[git 1]
- Selecting a Skill reveals the a checkbox to control wether or not a Specialization applies to the skill. Note that there is no validation of what the specialization is — if the box is checked, two extra dice are added to the Test pool.
- Armor does something[explain 2]
- Dice Pool Mod allows adding an arbitrary bonus to the test. This would be good if you were doing something like a Perception Test with equipment included.
- Limit has two fields, one for a flat value and a selector for a variety of character properties. If both are used, they'll be added together.
- Roll Mode applies one of Foundry's Roll Modes.
Modifiers
This requires deeper explaination.[explain 3]
Damage
Picking one of the three available damage Types (Physical, Stun, or Matrix) reveals the rest of the options.
- Damage Value and AP each have three fields. The first is a manually entered value, the second is a mathematical operation, and the third is a list of values derived from the Actor. An action configured this way will trigger the Combat workflow.
- Element defines the type of damage (leave blank for regular damage). It interacts with settings on the character's Armor Items.
Opposed Test
Selecting an Opposed Test[explain 4] enables configuration options for Skill and Attribute similar to the main Test Details section. During the rolling process, it will present a button on the Test's roll card for the defender to roll with.
Damage Resistance Test
Settting Damage Resistance Test[explain 5] reveals configuration options for Skill and Attribute similar to the main Test Details section.
