These templates can be used on any page - we might want to have them on our character sheets instead of on a separate page for ease of printing...

There are a number of templates used in creating encumberance ledgers. These are designed for ease and consistancy of input, and also ease of creation of an Encumberbot reusing code from LedgerBot.

Contents 1 [[Template:begin_encumbrance]] 2 [[Template:worn]] 3 [[Template:carried]] 4 [[Template:stored]] 5 [[Template:end_encumbrance]]

[[Template:begin_encumbrance]]

This template is used to start an encumberance table and adds column headings "Item" "Weight" and "Notes".

[[Template:worn]]

This template is for use with worn items that have a weight but no encumberance value. As with the other similar templates it takes three values and places them into columns in a table. By using this template you tell Encumberbot not to include the weight of this item when calculating encumberance.

Input as follows:

{{worn|"Item"|"Weight"|"Notes"}}

• The curly braces display the template enclosed within.
• worn is the name of the template used
• All text between the first and second bar will be placed in the first column under the heading Item
• All text between the second and third bar will be placed in the second column under the heading Weight. You should input weights in lbs accurate to one decimal place, where 10 cn = 1 lbs. You would enter a weight here to allow calculation of the total weight of character + equipment (say to see if you avoid triggering that ogre trap...)
• All text after the third bar will be placed in the third column under the heading notes. You may wish to say where this item is or give other useful information here...

[[Template:carried]]

This template is for use with carried items that have a direct impact on the encumberance value. As with the other similar templates it takes three values and places them into columns in a table. By using this template you tell Encumberbot to include the weight of this item when calculating encumberance.

Input as follows:

{{carried|"Item"|"Weight"|"Notes"}}

• The curly braces display the template enclosed within.
• carried is the name of the template used
• All text between the first and second bar will be placed in the first column under the heading Item
• All text between the second and third bar will be placed in the second column under the heading Weight. You should input weights in lbs accurate to one decimal place, where 10 cn = 1 lbs.
• All text after the third bar will be placed in the third column under the heading notes. You may wish to say where this item is or give other useful information here...

[[Template:stored]]

This template is for use with items that are left in town so have no impact on the encumberance value. As with the other similar templates it takes three values and places them into columns in a table. By using this template you tell Encumberbot not to include the weight of this item when calculating encumberance.

Input as follows:

{{stored|"Item"|"Weight"|"Notes"}}

• The curly braces display the template enclosed within.
• stored is the name of the template used
• All text between the first and second bar will be placed in the first column under the heading Item
• All text between the second and third bar will be placed in the second column under the heading Weight. You should input weights in lbs accurate to one decimal place, where 10 cn = 1 lbs. You would enter a weight here to save you looking it up next time this item is carried.
• All text after the third bar will be placed in the third column under the heading notes. You may wish to say where this item is or give other useful information here...

[[Template:end_encumbrance]]

This template is used to end an encumberance table and adds [[Category:Encumberance]] so Encumberbot can find the page and calculate encumberance for you. Encumberbot will add a final row to the table including total encumberance.

With any luck we will also be able to feed encumberbot the strength of the character so it can calculate movement speed and put this in the notes column, as well as creating a new template called "pagename" totals. Hopefully Users:PJF will have a chance to make Encumberbot work before the next session...
