Allow Command To Target Tokens
I would like to suggest the ability for certain skill, attacks, so forth, to be able to target the token. Very useful for ranged attacks that has animations that needs to be targeted.
This would allow a prompt for the user to "select target" and allow the animation and rolls to run.
Coincidentally, I wonder if it would also allow the targeted token to be able to have a response tied to it, for example, if it was a ranged attack, it could also easily have the dodge button appearing if it was a successful attack. Quite similar to the damage roll when the attack is a success.
Hmmm... some interesting ideas. We may have to break this into multiple issues.
As for the "auto targeting", we might start with a chat command that targets the next token the user clicks on. Then, you could add this command to the "check" OTF field for any of the attacks.
Thinking about the "follow on" dodge roll... now we are starting to get into some game automation... which we have historically stayed away from (due to legal issues with SJG).... but I wonder...
