[Request] Add Alternate Rest Profile option for Watches.
It is very common in D&D to have players do "watches" during long rests. Basically, one person stays up watching for trouble as the other party members sleep. The player who stays up watching shouldn't get the same benefits as someone sleeping.
There are different ways to add watches since there are different rest profiles. It's easy to say someone gets a "Sleep" rest profile, while another gets a "Watch" rest profile. However, there is no good way to associate the profiles with different party members.
I think the best way to accomplish this is that next to each character name added on the GM "Prompt for Rest" screen add a checkbox to use Alternate Rest Profile. Then below similar to the "rest profile" have an "alternate rest profile". Those players who are checked use the alternate rest profile instead of the regular rest profile. This method allows party members who are not doing the normal rest or maybe doing a special rest to get different benefits from others.
Currently, this process can be done manually by removing and adding players and running it twice per watch, but it is very cumbersome and if messed up it can cause issues.
You might be thinking....why not just remove that person from the list for a long rest since they get no benefits? Well, they still need to do the food/water check. And they are basically doing a (longer) short rest so there are benefits, just not the same as sleeping.
I will not be implementing this, but this module is open source and accepts code contributions from anyone :)
