Dear Companions!

It's been a wonderful, busy, and a little bit intense release of 2.9.x streaks :) Not to keep the guards down, here's next roll:

The update In a Nutshell

• AI Assistant can now understand and play your RPG Mechanics and Homebrews
  • You can input (optionally) your game specific system mechanics so the AI knows them
    • Instruct operation can now take a toggle to "make use of game mechanics"
    • Create entities (i.e. characters) takes a toggle to "use mechanics" generating stats and abilities for them
• AI Assistant more available settings such as answer depth, timeouts, language safety, and overrides.
• Link entities, random tables, dice rolls, and draw cards is now possible from the text editors with dedicated toolbar buttons
• Entity templates and sheet templates now allow the "Classification" metadata

What "Understand RPG Mechanics" means

You can designate a specific journal inside the gamemaster to tell the AI what you want it to know about your system:

 Good for homebrews and small systems

 Good for mechanics that matter to you the most

 Good for rules that you don't want the AI to hallucinate about

 You do NOT need to re-explain D&D to ChatGPT, it already knows typical TTRPGs on its own

 The new "Use Mechanics" toggles do NOT need you to provide a Rulebook for it to work

Good example purposes (within expectations)

• Create characters with "sheet stats" in one go
• Instruct the AI to propose a Scene with meaningful Skill Challenges
• Ask the AI Companion about the current scene and possible rule applications

The rest of the items are mainly bugfixes and UI tweaks, like always!

Enjoy the new version, and thanks to the beta testers who gave a community-driven hand to get this release polished out!

Best regards
