This is pretty awesome.   I believe I've got a bug report for version 0.1.9 though.  If I cast a concentration spell that generates a spellcard it works great, but for the ones that generate an attack it doesn't appear to be working - no status marker is added, no "xx is already concentrating" message if another con spell is up.

And attack spell doesn't send anything about concentration with it, so it is not checkable. I should've put this in the info above.

Ah, I see.  At least I can still add it manually.  I suppose I could change the spell macros for spell attacks to send a spell card and put inline rolls inside the spellcard?

Feature Request: a command to stop concentrating. It's easy enough to do in game, but I'd rather click the token and then on my macro bar than go through the click and scroll to find the thing.

• `!concentration` with tokens selected will now toggle the statusmarker on them.

Curious, How do you apply the feat War Caster?

Hi Robin

1st off, great work on this, cannot count how many times my group and I forget to roll for concentration!

However, after alot of testing, I have some suggestions:
1. As stated in a previous post, Auto add Con. Marker does not work with attack output spells, making it partial player controlled since !concentration does not work for players when they have a token they control selected. Any chance you could add this? 
2. When Auto Add Con. Marker is set to true and a spellcard is clicked it announces it in the chat, however does not when you use the "select token and type !concentration", maybe add: When typing !concentration and have a selected token, an input text box appears where players/DMs can type what spell is being concentrated on. I know this can be added via macro, but would be a nice feature.
3. I know this is a bit farfetched, but adding a timer to the status marker like the API TrackerJacker has, that way you can set duration for the spell and it will "tick down" every time the token starts it's turn.


Anyhow, that was my 2 cents, again great work on this API, really love it so far!

1. Output for spellcards has no way to identify Concentration. So it will possible not made automatic. I can make it optional to let players use `!concentration` tho.
2. I will probably add this indeed.
3. This will probably an option in combination with CombatTracker later on. (can already be manually tho).

I suspect that this script will eventually interact with Robin's StatusInfo script - which allows adding a duration to a condition. 

Actually, hopefully they all are just rolled into one big combat-management script. :)

Robin said:

Yes, I was thinking of making the multiple script all in one into CombatTracker later on. 

• `!concentration` can now have another argument to name the spell, eg. `!concentration Bless`.
• `!concentration` can be used by players (for controlled characters) now.

Pretty great work thanks! Would you be able to add the ability for players to click a 'roll' option on the chat output? The autorolling is great but I've found my players enjoy initiating rolls themselves instead of it being automated and it would be handy if it was built into the chat so if they failed it removed the concentration automatically. It would also be great if the roll triggered the 3d dice.

Keep up the great work!

Robin, this is great stuff and someone said that this recognizes rolling at advantage because of War Caster feat, but I would like to know from you if it does support that. I have looked at it several times and from what I can tell it's only rolling the save mod, not advantage.

For the record, I said "it's possible."  :P  My actual offered solution was to either turn off auto-roll, or to roll a second time manually for war casters.
