Options - Game
In this section, we will explore each option in the Game category.
NOTE: The D&D 5e ruleset is being used for screenshots and animations below as portraits, maps, items, weapons, etc. are readily available, whereas CoreRPG does not have any of these things by default.
Only the options available in CoreRPG Campaign Options are being shown below.
Chat: Set GM voice to active CT
When turned on, the name of any NPC which becomes active in the combat tracker will be added to the GM speaking identity list below the chat window.
Chat: Show all whispers to GM
When turned on, any whispers sent between players can be viewed by the GM.
Chat: Show GM rolls
When turned off, any rolls made by the GM are marked secret, and not shared with the players. When turned on, any rolls made by the GM are shared with all players.
Chat: Show results to players
The Chat: Show results to players option is similar to Chat: Show GM rolls, with a couple notable differences.
If it is set to On, all players will see every other players' rolls. If set to Friendly, rolls will be shown if any actors (source or target) are Friendly. If set to Friendly (Only), rolls will be shown to only if both source and target are Friendly. If set to Off, rolls will not be shown to others at all.
Desktop: Background decal position
When a decal is active, Center will place it at its default size in the center of the desktop. Fill Screen will enlarge the image to cover the desktop from top to bottom. Fit To Screen will make sure the image is at maximum size, but will scale with window size and shape.
Desktop: Show dice tower
When turned on, a dice tower will appear on each player desktop, and on the GM desktop (if Chat: Show GM rolls option set to On). The result of any rolls dropped in the dice tower can only be seen by the GM.
See All Things Dice | Dice Tower for more information.
Desktop: Show PCs
When turned on, all previously used characters will appear in the top-left corner of the desktop whether they are currently active or not. “Active Only” will only show characters that are currently claimed and in use by players or the GM.
