Drag Ruler
This module shows a ruler when you drag a token or measurement template to inform you how far you've dragged it from its start point. Additionally, if you're using a grid, the spaces the token will travel though will be colored depending on your tokens speed. By default, three colors are being used: green for spaces that your token can reach by walking normally are colored green, spaces that can only be reached by dashing will be colored yellow and spaces that cannot be reached with the token's speed will be colored red. If you're using a gridless map the ruler color will change to convey this information.

Follow Me is a module for Foundry VTT that allows tokens to follow or be followed by other tokens. This is completely system agnostic, and fully customizable to fit right into your game.
Give Item to Another Player
Were you ever in a session and you wanted to give an item to one of your friends? With this module you do not need to tell them the name of the item so they search for it in the compendium.
Was that an item that you created only in your inventory? No problem.
This module adds a button for each item in order to give that item to a different player.
Open your inventory and on the far right just click on the `hands` button.

Fixed - Broken in v11? - https://github.com/Eriku33/Foundry-VTT-Image-Hover/issues/52
Initiative Double Click
Double click the initiative value in the combat tracker to quickly modify it.
Item Piles
Have you ever wished you could represent items in your scenes? A pile of items, something to interact with - or perhaps chests whose appearance changes depending on what happens to it, whether it's open, closed, full, or empty. Do you want an easy way to split loot between players?
This module features:
- Dropping items on the canvas to create piles of items
- Item piles acting as containers with the ability to switch its token image depending on its open/closed/empty state, and play sounds accordingly
- Turn characters into fully featured merchants, with complex item pricing, item quantity management, and more
- Robust player-to-player trading features
- Incredibly intuitive API and documentation

scripts/main.js:
Hooks.on('setup', () => game.settings.set('core', 'notesDisplayToggle', true));
Times Up
Times up is a temporary solution to support active effects expiring.
It depends on no other modules and is system agnostic. It should just work. It will certainly be deprecated in the future when core supports Active Effect expiry and certainly has bugs. Should work with any module that creates active effects on the actor, not limited to DAE.
Token Auras
A FoundryVTT module for configuring token auras. Auras are visual only, but should work in any system and can be used as a basis to build more advanced features on top of. The module adds configuration options for up to two auras to the token configuration dialog, and additional auras can be added programmatically, with no limit.

Minimal UI
Extremely Configurable UI module, allows the user to hide, collapse or auto-hide components separately.
This includes hiding Foundry's Logo, Players List, Scene Navigation and Macro Bar.
Note: if you click on the Foundry Icon it hides/unhides everything!
--- Tweaks ---
My changes:
- Foundry Logo Visibility: Hide Completely -> Standard
- Player List Size: Standard -> Small
- Ping Logger with Minimal UI Behavior (if installed): Hide -> Show
Old:
- Scene Navigation Style: Start Collapsed (now default)
- Left Controls Submenu Style: Always Visible (now default)
- Macro Hotbar: Start Collapsed (now default)
Decided against:
- Player List Behavior: Click Toggle -> Auto-Hide
- Foundry Logo Image: icons/fvtt.png -> icons/anvil.png (smaller) -- doesn't work
Monk's Common Display
Monk's Enhanced Journal
Monk's Shop
Note Licker
Simple enhanced Scene Notes/Pins for Foundry to add autonumbering.
- Create icons for scenes on the fly based on the journal name, e.g. 1a. Kobold Nursery would generate a nice icon with 1a in a circle. These are similar to the icons that are created by DDB Importer when importing an adventure.
- Add the ability to remove the icon border. This is similar to the functionality in backgroundless-pins. If Backgroundless Pins is active, Note Licker will not enable this functionality, and works in v11. If Pin Cushion is installed, Note Licker will let this module handle background removal.
- Add the ability to jump to an anchor link. This is similar to the functionality in JAL and DDB Importer. This supports the flags used by DDB Importer/Adventure Muncher as well as JAL. If JAL is active, Note Licker will not enable the anchor linking functionality. This has a different approach and some slight functional differences to JAL, to meet the more detailed requirements of DDB Importer, but may be useful for other systems.
Pinned Chat Message
Polyglot
Shared Vision is a module that provides an easy way to share vision between multiple tokens. By default, you can do this in Foundry by giving every player observer permissions, but in that case tokens will only share vision if the player has no tokens selected.
An actor can be configured to always share its vision with specific players, it can also be configured to share its location with specific players (the token icon will be drawn over unexplored areas), or share its fog exploration with specific players.
I Use specifically allow other other players to see location of other player tokens (not vision)

Simplefog A module for FoundryVTT that lets you draw fog of war manually.
Simple Quest - PATREON
PAID PATREON - requires Early Access tier ($11.50 / month)
A simple and clean quest management interface with personal and shared notes.
Status Icon Counters
Status Icon Counters allows setting and displaying a counter on any token's status effects.
The number key rebind behaves as follows:
- Pressing any number key while hovering an effect sets the stack count to that number. If it wasn't active before, it is added.
- Pressing 0 removes the effect.
FIXED - Broken in V10 - https://gitlab.com/woodentavern/status-icon-counters/-/issues/42

Token Lean
Want to look around corners without moving your token? Stack up on a door and peek around? Just lean! While holding down the lean button (default q), your token's vision and light source are moved towards your mouse. The maximum distance you can lean is configurable by the gm.
Too Many Tokens - DND
The TooManyTokens module for Foundry VTT features a collection of 15,531 ai generated, license free, tokens for monsters with a Challenge Rating (CR) of 10 or lower from the Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual with a cumulative size of 590MB.
XP Calculator - Direct Install
Install directly - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RealDeuce/xpcalc/main/module.json
Simple module to calcuate XP for a combant encounter (total XP for hostile Actors divided by total number of Friendly Actors). Simply displays the calculation at the bottom of the Combat Tracker.
Example:
XP: 11800 (2) / 2 = 5900 (2950)
totalXP (enemies) / allies = totalXP/allies (totalXP/allies/2)
cc.before("XP: " + totalXP + " (" + enemies + ") / " + allies + " = " + Math.floor(totalXP / allies) + " (" + Math.floor(totalXP / allies / 2) + ")");
Note: not sure why the (totalXP/allies/2) is useful?
Dependencies
Let Me Roll That For You - DEPENDENCY
DEPENDENCY FOR MIDI-QOL
lib - Color Settings - DEPENDENCY
Library: Scene Packer - DEPENDENCY
A library to help content creators package up Scenes and Adventures to solve several frustrations when importing Scenes from a module compendium. With Scene Packer the following works:
Scene Journal Pins link to the correct Journal.
- This is the feature that started this module. I was frustrated that I could put a Scene into a compendium with journal pins and then when I imported from a compendium, the journal pin was there, but didn't load anything. This module gives you portable compendium journal pins that link to the original journal entry. The journal links will persist when importing from compendiums.
- Actor tokens on a Scene link to the correct Actor.
- The second frustration that prompted this module. Normally you would import a Scene with Actor tokens on it and they look correct, but don't open anything. So you would have to go through and link them all up again manually. This module gives you portable compendium actor tokens on a scene that link to the original actor data automatically.
- Journals configured for the Scene link correctly.
- No longer will the Journal dropdown on the Scene configuration screen be empty when importing from a compendium.
- Playlists configured for the Scene link correctly.
- No longer will the Playlist dropdown on the Scene configuration screen be empty when importing from a compendium.
- Imported Journals link correctly to other Journal entries.
- By using the automatic link fixer, you won't have broken links due to Journals referencing World entities, rather than compendium entities.
- Quick Encounters work, creating working journal pins that you can double-click on and actors that are linked correctly.
- You can provide a list of Journals and/or Macros that you want to ensure are imported to the world.

GM Screen - DISABLED
Creates a tabbed modular grid that GMs can populate with journal entries, rollable tables, actors, and items. Customize your "GM Screen" by dragging and dropping items into cells and have its information available at any time from a button on the bottom right of the UI, near the sidebar. Roll rollable tables, open linked entities, and even place actor sheets into these cells. Obviously the space constraints mean some sheets will work better than others.
Additionally, any screen you create as GM can be set to be shared with players, so you can provide them with a cheat sheet that is always readily available to them. Be sure you set the permissions correctly on the entities themselves before trying to share them with players on a screen!
