Feature request: associate a macro with a Hey, Wait! tile #6

Some possibilities:

Optional panning
Start combat
Specify a compendium macro by name to execute

1000nettles commented 3 years ago

Optional panning is a good idea for sure, that should be a low lift. Starting combat is a tricky one though, as you would first need to set up who is going to be in the combat. Setting up a macro to execute is a cool idea - for a future version I was thinking one could drag a journal / macro / "thing" onto the Hey, Wait! tile config, to allow that "thing" to take place when the tile is triggered.

Thoughts?

I see your point on combat. It could be subsumed under the macros feature (which would basically allow unlimited extensibility on behavior). Were it configurable directly from the tile, I suppose it'd be prudent to have at least some of the following:
- A toggle to include all player-owned actors in the scene.
- A combat-inclusion radius field that shows either a preview list of what is included in the specified range or a visible radius template that adjusts as the radius is edited.
That sounds like a good implementation for macros.

Sounds good. I'm going to rename this issue to reflect it being surrounding adding a macro to a Hey, Wait! tile.
