TableTop Game Equipment, a.k.a. TaToGE

This project provides a bunch of simple widgets to emulate the common game equipment needed when playing board games or card games : Dice, sandtimers, score counters…

It focuses on simplicity, and on the idea it will be used as a companion during “real” table-top gaming.

Features

• Widgets for game state display:
  • Timer for virtual sand-clock
  • Counter
  • CountDown/Sequence steps follower
• Widgets to generate random:
  • Dice
  • DiceCup to roll a group of dice
  • CardDrawer for draw without replacement (Note that draw with replacement can be performed with DiceCup widget)
• General status saving/loading (in json format)

Developer guide

Improvement ideas

• New widgets:
  • Stopwatch
  • Score table
  • random “Go” signal
• Add sounds on events
• General reset button
• General roll button
• Tools dynamic delete/order
• Dice/Cards random values could be icons
• Widget labels could be icons

Known issues

• Keyboard navigation does not trigger auto-scroll in AddEquipmentDialog.
• Command line help is not translated.
• TODO : Counter increments serialization

Build dependency

Needs:

• Qt5.9
• C++11 compiler
• qmake to generate Makefile, and lrelease to generate translation file
• Imagemagick to render icon files

That means on debian/ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools imagemagick
lrelease tatoge.pro
./images/render.sh
qmake
make
