Effects to Chat
A FoundryVTT module that sends added and removed effects to the chat.
Overview
Effects to Chat posts a chat message whenever an effect is added to, removed from, or expires on an actor, so effect changes are visible without digging through actor sheets. Messages can include the effect's description, and who sees them is controlled by role.
Features
- Sends chat messages when an effect is added, removed, or expires
- Configure if the effect description should be shown or not
- Control the minimum role that can see the messages
- Optionally send the messages to the owners of the affected actor, regardless of role
