Support Module Import / Export #106

Open bryancasler opened 4 years ago

bryancasler commented 4 years ago

Sometimes I'm spinning up worlds fresh and just want to bring over as all my modules with me. Would be awesome if there was somehow to support module import/export. I've seen this (https://foundryvtt.com/article/module-development/#options) but don't know if that's helpful

Thanks for the suggestion. You can bundle other modules with a module, but not dynamically install them. That would be a security flaw if someone included a virus module or some other module that was purposely made to cause issues with Foundry Core. There would be no way to exclude that from the adventure file easily. What you're looking for is something of a world setup, which this was never meant to be, it was only for importing and exporting content, not functionality.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply @cstadther, I learned something. Will look into a different approach to accomplish what I'm looking for. Thanks again!
