Useful to break ties. ### Apply Currency Weight Makes carried currency count against the character's encumberance. Follows the PHB rules on pg. 143. ### Disable Experience Tracking Removes the experience tracker from [Player Character](/Xqpl1LHTQEmMo48xssARsA) sheets. Useful if you use Milestone leveling. ### Collapse Item Cards in Chat When [Items](/Q1EUXYxtQPqUJO-CXvi0wQ) are activated, the created chat card will have the description collapsed by default. This does not affect the presence of the buttons on the chat card. ### Allow [Polymorphing](/j0AROYO-TUmcsompxNlCEg) Instead of the GM having to polymorph an actor, this allows the player who owns that actor to do so on their own. ### Use Metric Weight Units Replaces imperial units of weight with metric units: - `lbs` -> `kgs` Changes the Actor Encumberance calculations accordingly. This does not convert any numerical weights of items or actors, only the unit of measurement displayed.
