Part of the allure of Fantasy Grounds was to bring DnD into the digital world and make it easy and accessible. While Fantasy Grounds does a good job of getting closer to that goal, there are still things things that are cumbersome -- and adding all of the spells, actions, traits and features to your character is one of them. The built in parser does an ok job, but there is so much more that can be automated and extended. This extension does exactly that. Rather than having to learn all of the effects language myself as a DM, I can spend more time actually running the game and letting Automatic Effects take care of the hard work. The players love having everything at their fingertips and on nights when they level up, we don't spend half the session trying to get new actions added to their character sheet and making sure they work properly. It's nice to have everything covered which exists inthe source book. Front to back, if the players saw an ability or spell in the PHB, we know that we can find an automatic effect for it. Great module for any DM to have.
