Global Action to allow more than 1 consumable quantity used #716

Open charles-large opened 1 month ago

charles-large commented 1 month ago

Right now, the "shotsUsed" optional field only works with ammunition of weapons. When set to a number higher than 1 for an item that is listed as a consumable, it still only consumes 1 item.

My usecase involves a player trying to throw dynamite in varying bundle sizes (1-6). I could create a dynamite weapon attack using dynamite sticks as the ammo and have them reload to fill their dynamite bundle as current workaround. I think this may be a useful feature to expand on where the "shotsUsed" supports more than 1 consumable or a separate field is implemented for a custom consumable quantity. This would allow other uses such as “I throw 3 shuriken blades” and would work off a single consumable item vs having attack AND ammo.

Thank you for filling this bug, but we don't do nothing with ammo or object consumption. We just call the system (or SWIM or any other module that is doing it). I'll take a look but likely this should be feature request against system.

I don't really want to add something as complicated as ammo management to BR if I can avoid it.

Anyway, I'll take a look and answer here again.
