Tools for gridless GURPS

An Add-on Module for Foundry Virtual Tabletop

Author: Quinlor Project Source: Project URL Versions 10+ (Verified 11) Last Updated 10 months ago

This Module adds some Tools for gridless play to the GURPS Game Aid System. :

  1. Replaces the border shown on the selected token and on mouse hover on a token with a border indicating facing.
  2. Displays an indicator for reach and front, side, back angles on a key press (Default: R for the current token, shift + R for all tokens). You can change the key binds under "configure Controls" in Foundry.
  3. Support for non square tokens and all token sizes.

     

  4.  Foundry rotates tokens around its center, with GURPS the token should rotate around its head. Therefor, this module allows you to shift the center of rotation.

     

  5. The default Foundry scaling for token images is wired for non square tokens. This module changes so that the token image scales with tihe longest token dimension.  

     

  6.  Rotate token art to face in the correct direction (downward) inside the token border. The About Face rotation offset will instead rotate the wohle token incl. border.

The Module requires the GURPS Game Aid System and the About Face Module.

Tips for gridless play

In the Foundry scene set the Grid Type to gridless, the Grid Scale to 1, the Grid Unit to Yd and the Grid Size to the number of pixel for 1 yard. Note that most maps for foundry are made with an unrealistic large scale to allow play with the 5 feet grid of DnD. That is in most cases unnecessary for GURPS gridless play. I usually set the number of pixels given for one DnD 5 feet square for 1 yard and get a realistic scale. Individual maps may require adjustments.
