foundryvtt-simple-calendar VS macros

We use the following in our Blades game -- Chat Images [Link] -- Chat Portrait [Link] -- Dice so nice [Link] -- Multilevel Tokens [Link] -- Show Art [Link] -- Simple Calendar [Link] -- Safety Tools - This is custom make for us -- Token HUD Wildcard (fix) [Link] -- Universal Battlemap Importer [I think this related to a map making program] -- Weather Control [Link]

I would start at the github page for the plugin: https://github.com/vigoren/foundryvtt-simple-calendar

Integrate it with something like Simple Calendar if you want to combine it with a larger time system.

foundryvtt-simple-calendar - Simple Calendar is the ultimate timekeeping module for FoundryVTT that works with all game systems! It comes prepackaged with many preset calendars to get your world up and running quickly. Or if you have a completely custom-built calendering system for your world, Simple Calendar can handle that as well!

Simple Calendar

I was going to report the bug, but it looks like it's already been reported, so it should be fixed at some point. Which doesn't help you much now, but at least it's on the dev's radar.

Just showing these costs would be cool, but maybe you could also take a look into integrating it into a module like Simple Calendar to mark the days when it has to be paid on a calendar and add a button to pay it, adding up otherwise (dont quite remember how that is handled in the source book). I mean it was really just an idea, if you were looking for more features people miss.

Day Night Cycle automatically changes the lighting levels to reflect the time of day based on the time in Simple Calendar.

Not sure when/if calendar/weather is getting updated. I'm using Simple Calendar and Small Time, which gets me most of the same function in some form, except for weather. Looks like Active Auras is already updated for 8.6, though I haven't tested it.

I've moved over to using About Time with Small Time and Simple Calendar.

Yeah, learning how to do other stuff in Javascript is a good way to start. But then maybe look at things like the example scripts in the community macros: https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/macros

Have a look at the community free macro module. https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/macros

If you code at all, then Foundry jumps even higher up the recommendation list since it's designed intentionally to allow people to build stuff and add functionality. As someone who used to mess with R20 macros and their proprietary API, this is probably one of my favorite benefits to Foundry. They have some typical documentation though if you prefer examples the community macros repo is great for that.

Read some of the shorter/simpler macros from https://github.com/foundry-vtt-community/macros to get a sense of how they work.

This macro in the FoundryVTT Community Macros GitHub repository "selects all actors of the same name on the scene." I haven't tested it, but these macros have never given me issues in the past, and I recommend checking out that repo if there's ever something you're looking for.

Quick size control (#2) is generally handled by macros. There's a macro for quickly swapping tokens between 1x1 and 2x2 in the community macros. If you want some that will just bump a token up or down 1 grid size, I can get you mine personal ones in a bit when I'm at my main computer/
