RESOURCES

• Represents:
  • "Consumables":
    • Potions, Scrolls, etc
  • "Regenerators":
    • Magic Spell Slots
      • IDEA: Each spell level uses (level) resources from Regenerators pool
    • Daily Abilities
    • Daily Item uses
• Option 1: Single "Resource" value representing all things for players
  • CON: There is a difference between "Consumables" and "Regenerators"
  • PRO: Simplest
• Option 2: 2 Resource values (Consumables and Regenerators)
  • CON: Might not be granular enough for encounter vs. daily regen
  • PRO: Versatile but still relatively easy
• Option 3: Track/add resources separately
  • CON: Extremely Granular, and different systems have lists of these
  • PRO: Most versatile, allows for system-like simulation

OTHER SYSTEMS:

• Something that translates from "Level" to stats for Combatants
• Turn tracking for a combat
• FUTURE:
  • Something for adding/storing enemies from bestiaries
  • Balancing around taking full day instead of using resources
