Summon Items
Hey, how about the Summon Action can be extended to items too? Like in the Shadow Blade spell from Xanathar's Guide to Everything. The principle would be the same, but you would summon the item from the spell target's inventory.
Can be done?
Yea, thats also something I've been wanting, Flame Blade kind of works similarly, so does summoning a weapon through pact of the blade for warlock iirc, I geuss part of it could be done with activities, having a shadow blade attack & summon activity on that spell.
You can get most of the way there with Enchantments (adding an item is easy in v12, has to be done programmatically in v11) The main challenge here I think is that it doesnt handle modifications to the item like for upcasting, so I just used enrichers for that, and that you can't enchant the item that is the source of the enchantment (i.e. it feels like I should enchant the spell itself I guess, but it doesnt really matter what gets enchanted in this case anyway) So, Im not sure if it would be easier to add Items to Summons, or alter how Additional Items Enchantments are handled

@MaxPat931 I don't think Enchantment works here. With the spells me and @Zanderaf said, you don't enchant an item, you summon one. Even in the Goodberry spell, you summon 10 berries. I think a action to summon an item would be excelent in these cases (and I think in a lot of others too).
I think There might be an issue for a Create Item activity or smt similar iirc? I might have made it?
