AP and Money Tracker

Last updated: 01.2025

The system offers an optional feature to automatically log all changes to Adventure Points (AP) and character wealth. This is particularly useful for Game Masters to keep track of group progress and expenses.

Activation

These features must be enabled in the system settings:

  • Settings → System Settings → General
  • Check Track Adventure Points (enableAPTracking)
  • Check Track Money (enableMoneyTracking)

Tracker Settings

How It Works

Once enabled, the system automatically creates journal entries for each player character whenever their AP or money changes.

Storage Location

You'll find the logs in the Journal Directory (book icon in the right sidebar).

  • Folders are automatically created (e.g., "Adventure Points" and "Money")
  • Each character has their own journal inside

Log Structure

  • Pages: For each day on which changes were made, a new page is created in the journal (date as title)
  • Entries: Each line documents a change:
Column Description
Description What was changed? (e.g., "Courage", "Bought sword", "Reward")
Change The value of the change (e.g., "+1", "-5 Silver")
Cost The cost in AP or money
Total The new total after the change

Usage

AP Tracker

Logs:

  • Received AP (awarded by the GM)
  • Spent AP (advancement of attributes, talents, special abilities)

This helps answer questions like:

  • "How much AP has the party received this campaign?"
  • "Where did the character spend their AP?"

Money Tracker

Logs:

  • Income (merchants, loot, rewards)
  • Expenses (purchases, services, costs)

This helps answer questions like:

  • "How much did we spend at that shop?"
  • "What's the character's spending history?"

Permissions

Note: The journals have the same permissions as the character. Players can typically view their own log.

GM Access

The Game Master can see all tracker journals and use them to:

  • Audit character advancement
  • Review economic balance
  • Track campaign progression

Tips

  • Regular Review: Check journals periodically to catch any issues
  • Manual Entries: You can manually add entries to the journals if needed
  • Export: Journal contents can be exported for campaign records
  • Clean Up: Old tracker journals can be archived or deleted
