A module for Foundry VTT that allows users to keep track of downtime activities, quest progress and... Well, pretty much anything you can track with a loading bar and a %.

Feature Request: Shared Activities #56

TLDR: Link progress of multiple entries using IDs from the read-only field or some other means

I have loved the module so far, its great for tracking different individual activities. Recently the party has gotten to an area where they will be working as a group to research a grimoire. I have been manually adjusting the values in their books so far, but it would be great if I could include the item ID in a semicolon separated field to link the progress bar. Potentially one sheet is the master entry or a separate screen that you populate with group tasks and a list of the relevant characters?

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. There's a planned feature for somewhere down the line to implement what I call "Global Activities", which pretty much fill the use case you described. GM can configure items that display on all PC sheets, or all NPC sheets, or, potentially, somewhere on the canvas (think, countdown timer, or quest tracker ui from an MMO).

In the meantime, you can implement this sort of "progress link" by using macro activities in conjunction with the Advanced Macros module (used to be part of The Furnace). If you wanna shoot me a message on Discord, I can help you write the macros to suit your needs.
