foundryvtt-magic-items VS quick-insert

FoundryVTT Magic Items - This module for Foundry VTT and specific for the DnD5e system, adds the ability to create magical items with spells or feats that belong to the item itself, such as staffs or magic wands, which will be automatically inherited from the character who owns the item.

Magic Items - Allows adding additional spells and such onto magic items directly. Very useful for items that function on charge systems that can be upcast, though a little tricky to work with.

Well there's your problem right there.

Magic Items might help you. I believe you can set it to use multiple charges and scale with number of charges.

a solution could be to code your cutom "feature" into custom magic spells and use the mod "magic items" which let you add spells to magic items with customizable charge cost per spell, number of charges, charges regained at x and so on

What you want is the Magic Items Module... it works with MIDI-QOL and DAE. https://gitlab.com/riccisi/foundryvtt-magic-items

There's an issue for this raised on the module's gitlab page: https://gitlab.com/riccisi/foundryvtt-magic-items/-/issues/82

You are right, it's a feature within the pf2e game system. I don't know an addon for that but i recommend https://gitlab.com/fvtt-modules-lab/quick-insert. It opens a search bar when pressing ctrl+space that finds actors, items, stuff in your compendium etc.

MrPrimate, the guy who wrote/maintains the DDB importer, has indeed put out a pathbuilder importer. I haven't tested it, and the last time someone tried to maintain a similar module they gave up because the foundry system moved too quickly to keep up with given their effort, but this is very in his wheelhouse, conceptually, so maybe this time'll be different. It really isn't that much effort to transfer choices from PB to Foundry though, especially with a little QoL support.

Quick Insert

Search Anywhere will search the contents of Journals (the GitLab page states "Full text content search inside Journal Entries, Item description, Actor bio & Rollable Table description (world's entity only)"), but only those that are world objects (not those in Compendiums). If you have tried it before and it hasn't worked for you, you might look through its settings. It doesn't look like the author of Quick Insert will implement the same feature.

Quick Insert for quickly finding spells, monsters, even rules in Foundry.
