R.A.T.S. Documentation

Until I decide if I want to integrate all of my modules under one menu in Foundry, the way to open the R.A.T.S. Builder is tp create a new script macro in Foundry which simply contains the call openRatsBuilder()

Introduction

R.A.T.S. is a Foundry VTT module that allows GMs to design and Players to experience retro-style terminal simulations. It is modular, employing what I call Elements strung together to form what I call Screens. See below for more detail.

Terminals

A Terminal, in the world of R.A.T.S. is a collection of one or more Screens which, in turn, are a collection of one or more Elements.

The Tree

The Tree is where you can define and organize the Screens and Elements that make up you Terminals.

Elements

Elements are the currently the smallest unit in the R.A.T.Sverse and represent a little bundle of functionality that GMs can use to build out screens which can then be linked together in fun and exciting ways.
