RPG Combat Toolkit · Version 1.0

Complete feature list, ordered by buyer value.

The page starts with the systems most likely to determine whether the asset fits a project: tactical grids and movement, modular abilities, reactions, character systems, working UI, and editor tooling. Lower-level architecture and turn bookkeeping remain documented, but they no longer lead the story.

Advanced integration and architecture

  • AI attack selection/execution hooks
  • Modular AI ability service

  • Deterministic restore order
  • Validation of malformed, duplicate, or unsupported chunks
Scope boundary: this is not file IO, save-slot management, campaign persistence, or a global transaction. Earlier restored chunks are not rolled back if a later chunk fails.
