Level Up #26

Closed geoidesic closed 1 week ago

geoidesic commented 1 month ago

Currently it is but only for Level 1

It would be useful in some cases to be able to create a character higher than 1st level... although that's not the focus of this module it would expand its use.

Option 1

Make level selection a thing that also affects which advancements are processed

Cons

Requires a different UX / UI to cater for multi-class

Option 2

Make it clear that this is for creating Level 1 characters only and that the level select is for preview purposes only

Option 3 ✅

Add a level up button to each class on the character sheet, which just finds the compendium item and drops it on the sheet again. But then what about multi-classing? In which case there would need to be a different UX. Probably something like a dialog that asks which class to improve, with the option to add new. If new, then it opens AS again but linked to the current actor instead of to a new actor.

Probably then for the level up mode, there would need to be some limitations

  1. [ ] Level select should be fixed to the incoming level and disabled.
  2. [ ] Race and Background tabs should be hidden

From ChobitzCrazy: (My preference is a button on the character sheet to level up, also it should detect that the character has enough XP for the level)
