Walkabout Extensions SR uses (All 5E only for me)

[SilentRuin]

As I constantly always tell the unwashed masses of users to READ the extension .txt files and forum threads and/or watch the outdated videos...

And I still get asked questions, I decided to put together an overview of extensions I use and what they do for me (obviously not everything nor do I provide any real details). And of course the info is protected by a MASSIVE TEXT WALL to keep the unworthy OUT.

Support a player having ability to take ownership or release ownership of any NPC/Vehicle visible in their CT (exception being things set owner from host via drag drop onto player portrait - those can only be cleared by host dragging CT entry link onto Assistant GM Clear button at top of CT).
