Character Ruler Plugin
Adds abilities to create rulers snapped to Character Base
Install
Currently you need to either follow the build guide down below or use the R2ModMan.
Usage
Player: While having a selected mini, open the radial menu and select "Attack" => "Measure Distance". A line ruler will be created snapped to the base of your mini to the selected mini.
When either mini moves, the Ruler will be updated to the new positions. If Line of Sight is broken, then the ruler will disappear. You can delete the ruler by going through the radial menu same as before and select "Remove Ruler".
GM: Same as Player, but the Ruler will not dissapear if Line Of Sight is broken. This doesn't apply if you're in player mode.
How to Compile / Modify
Open.sln in Visual Studio.
Build the project (We now use Nuget).
Browse to the newly created /Debug or /Release folders and copy the.dll to \steamapps\common\TaleSpire\BepInEx\plugins

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
