Overview

Convert Starfinder RPG rules to metric.

Installation

1. Go to the Chrome webstore.
2. On the extension listing page, select Add to Chrome.

Usage

The extension runs automatically on the Archive of Nethys and Starjammer SRD websites. The extension will detect imperial units on the page and replace them with metric equivalents. The original units appear as a tooltip. However, this functionality is limited. For more information, see Performance.

For example, 40° F is converted to 4°C. (Hover over the conversion to see the original units as a tooltip.)

Conversions

Feet and yards are converted both to metres and "units" - which are equivalent to squares on a battle mat. This is based on the convention of 5 feet = 1 square. For example, 30 feet is converted to 6U [9.1 M]. You can use whichever value is most useful in each situation.

Metres are shown with an accuracy of 1 decimal place. All other units are rounded to the nearest whole number.

Settings

To access the settings panel, complete the followig steps:

1. On the Chrome browser toolbar, select Extensions (jigsaw piece icon).
2. In the list of extensions that appears, select Metric converter for Starfinder.

The basic settings control which units are converted. To leave a unit unchanged, clear the relevant check box.

Changes are not saved until you select Save changes.

Advanced settings

To access the advanced settings, open the settings panel, and then select Advanced settings.

Styling

Enter CSS that you want to apply to converted units. To have the converted units appear in the same style as the original units, clear this field.

Formatting

By default, metres use the period decimal separator. To use a comma as the decimal separator, select the Comma fractional separator check box.
