    players trading items

    Is there a way players can give each other items (such as potions) in this ruleset. I'd like players to be able to do it themselves but the only way i can seem to do it is if I as a GM open both characters sheets and drag the items myself

    Thanks

    The party management sheet - there is an inventory tab - players can drag items from them to the party inventory - the other players can drag items from the party inventory to their own sheet.

    Make sure you enable the option for players to see the inventory in the party sheet.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    If you don't mind facilitating the trade as the GM, you can also drag items directly from one player's inventory to another.

    Is there a way for players to trade items without using the party sheet as an intermediary or involving the GM at this point?

    Not in the base ruleset. I'm not sure if there's an extension that may facilitate this though.

    Wait, can't one player drag the item to chat and then the other player drag the item from chat to their inventory?

    That definitely works in my campaign, but maybe it's a feature added by one of the extensions I use and I didn't realize...

    Using the chat window is still a 2-step process, similar to using the party sheet. There's also a gotcha with using the chat window - if the PC who links the item has more than one item, it's possible for other PCs to take more than one by dragging the link in chat multiple times; the link in chat doesn't disappear when used, it'll stay there so the party won't know how many are left, or an unscrupulous PC could take more items than intended. Whereas the party sheet shows how many items are available and decrements for all to see as items are taken. Go with what works for you, with the understanding of the gotchas.
