[bug] Actors & Items packs need system field in v10

[bakbakbakbakbak]

I tried getting this to work in my ose-dev test environment so I could play around with some proper items. According to this article there seems to be a need for a system field for each pack of Actors & Items. Unfortunately the article doesn't state that it only takes a String and not an Array of Strings (which is later referred to for system in the article).

• I tried defining an array of strings for the items & actors, that doesn't work.
• I tried making duplicates for the packs-entries, but with unique system-string, that works!

I don't know if this should be considered a bug for foundry, or that the UFT needs to yield and have duplicated packs entries? I doubt there are many more systems being developed for use as a common baseline, but I am not in the know enough.

I asked in the Foundry discords Module Development, and not being able to provide an array is working as intended. So I guess we'll have to opt for the second option here.

I'm expecting one of two solutions for this (note: things in the UFT org probably aren't fit for use yet, and may not be for a little while):

• The system dev forks the compendium and runs a script that injects their system key into each Actor- and Item-containing pack
• This repo does that work itself to provide packs for each UFT-friendly system.

Both methods are easily done using something like EJS. It's just a question of where we want to do the work.

For now we have the ose tags on the packs. Keeping this open until we have a solution in place that's generalizable to any UFT game system
