sandbox-system-builder VS worldbuilding

Foundry is great if there's a module and probably not worth the effort if there isn't. You can try putting together what you need from either https://gitlab.com/rolnl/sandbox-system-builder/-/tree/master or https://github.com/foundryvtt/worldbuilding both if which have some youtube tutorials.

Most systems are already made for you by the fantastic community and some of the game devs ( https://foundryvtt.com/packages/systems ). If the game system you choose to run isn't in foundry then there are tons of modules to modify how dice work, and even a few that allow you to create your own game system ( https://gitlab.com/rolnl/sandbox-system-builder/-/tree/master ). There's also an insane list of systems that aren't listed in Foundry's system that has been created, and can be found via discord or a google search. The community support for this VTT is beyond outstanding, and the discord is full of people answering the most obscure use case questions imaginable. It's rare for me to hear of a system/use case that can't be done here.

A few weeks ago I started making a generic WOiN system using the Sandbox System Builder (https://gitlab.com/rolnl/sandbox-system-builder) for FoundryVTT to support my party as Fantasy Grounds has been giving us issues.

Everything you need is on the Sandbox gitlab page

I'm probably going to be making a sandbox sheet for a game which foundry doesn't have yet so I've been looking into it a bit. If you're having trouble with sandbox, make sure your question isn't answered in the tutorial on the gitlab page. There are also youTube tutorials linked there, and a way to contact the creator of sandbox on discord to ask for help.

- Sandbox System Builder, which allows building of some fairly complex sheets without coding

Go through the readme on the official project page, which contains a step by step tutorial, and you'll have a simple system up in no time. Then get tricky with more advanced stuff. In two of the systems I built, I created character species where the character automatically inherited all the appropriate bonuses, skills,etc when they added that species to their character. https://gitlab.com/rolnl/sandbox-system-builder/-/tree/master

There's one called Simple Worldbuilding System which is a bare bones system, you can make a character sheet there and set is as a template, add rolling macros and just play with that.

Allow me to direct you to the Simple Worldbuilding System which was designed for EXACTLY that purpose.

So I'm using the Simple Worldbuilding System, since I'm homebrewing my own campaign entirely. For the most part, I've been fine with everything the system has been able to do for me. There's really only one category that's been lacking for me: items.

It’s a VTT but maybe Foundry using the Simple Worldbuilding System? That is the generic system for Foundry not tied to a specific game.

Also, you could try using the Simple World building module to get a start making your perfect system. https://foundryvtt.com/packages/worldbuilding

You can do as little or as much as you want. Tokens are straightforward uploads/choices. My suggestion, with as much custom material as you have, would be to use Simple Worldbuilding System and PDF Character Sheet. That will allow you to start off with something manageable while you learn how to add classes, feats, and races to the 5e system. Custom mechanics will require programming or using something like Sandbox. I’m pretty happy doing theatre of the mind and using Foundry for combat tracking and mapping.

For Gold & Glory is an implementation of a system heavily based on AD&D 2e and can function as a good core for it. Simple and other system agnostic options can also be used for it. If you're wanting full in-built integration and automation though, your only option is, unfortunately, FGU still. Only VTT place its ever actually been licensed out to.

This is sort of true and sort of not. There is a Simple Worldbuilding System module that basically gives you a "blank slate," similar to what you have in Roll20 if you don't select a system.
