Tension Pool is a Foundry Implementation and Evolution of the Angry GM's idea of Time Pools/Tension Pools.
Tension Pool has been updated to V10.
Going forwards Tension Pool should be treated as unsupported.
I will continue to develop Tension Pool for my own games so major bugs will be fixed, but edge cases will take longer to get to.
Available on the Forge and via the module directory within Foundry.
Alternatively install via the manifest url: https://github.com/SDoehren/tension-pool/releases/latest/download/module.json
The simpliest way to use Tension Die is to click the pool to add a die, which will roll atomatically when it is filled.
There is a compendium of macros installed with the module for more complicated controls; these simply call the API.
Hook Calls and API are available here

- Docker and Docker Compose
- A Foundry VTT account with a license key
- Clone the repository
- Copy
.env.exampleto.envand fill in your Foundry VTT credentials and license key - Run
docker compose up -d - Open
http://localhost:30000and accept the license - Create a world and install the "Dice So Nice" module via Foundry's module browser
- Enable both "Tension Pool" and "Dice So Nice" in the world's module settings
The module is bind-mounted into the container, so code changes are reflected on browser refresh.
Use docker compose down to stop and docker compose restart to restart.
