Starting Equipment Not Being Awarded #4362

Closed CatchingPhoenix closed 1 month ago

CatchingPhoenix commented 1 month ago

Starting equipment from a background or class is not awarded when added to an actor. Shown are screenshots from the new PHB module, but I have confirmed that new backgrounds and classes do not award the starting equipment either.

I assume this is a dnd5e feature and not a PHB module feature. If it is, I will direct this issue there.

To reproduce:

No other modules beyond the PHB compendium module are being used.

Duplicate of #3381. This is a much nicer ticket though... My understanding is that this will be addressed eventually, just no milestone for it yet.

I don't recall such a neat UI option in the old systems, but I was introduced to Foundry with the Tidy5E already set up, so maybe it was there but disabled. Implementing this should not be too challenging, considering I was doing this with advancements before and WotC is providing new items already set up with starting equipment in the premium modules. It's a QoL feature, but considering how many things are just wrong with the module I paid for, this was one more thing that was undoubtedly intended and partially implemented but not complete. Since I'm making a level 20 character for every subclass this week, it would be very nice to have the equipment there so my players and I don't need to worry about it.
