Should you heal now, or will the boss guard this turn? Is that Fireball aimed at your weakened mage?

Enemy Intention shows each enemy's next action before it happens. Slay the Spire, Into the Breach and many roguelikes are built around this mechanic. Your players stop guessing and start planning, which makes every fight a small puzzle.

Plug and play: add it to your project, turn it on, and every enemy shows its intention when the player targets it. You don't need notetags, setup or any other plugin, but you can use them to make things even better!

✨ Features

• 🎯 Next action shown: Attack, Guard, or any Skill/Item, displayed as an icon, a name, or both, floating next to the enemy.
• 👤 Target preview: the face and/or name of the party member who will be hit, or "All"/"Random" for wide-area actions.
• ✅ It shows the real decision: the plugin reads the enemy AI's actual choice. It never guesses or fakes one, and the target shown is the one that gets hit.
• 👁️ Three visibility modes: only for the selected enemy, for all enemies at once, or hidden until the party earns it.
• 🔍 Scan / Analyze abilities: Actor, Class and State notetags let the party unlock intentions during the game through skills, equipment or buffs.
• 🌫️ Stealthy enemies and fog effects: Enemy and State notetags hide or limit what the player can see. Use them for a smoke bomb, a fog spell, or a boss you can't read.
• 🎨 Layout options: 9 anchor positions, X/Y offsets, scale, text color, and per-enemy style and size overrides.
• 💬 Escape codes work: \i[n] and \c[n] display correctly in skill and battler names.
• ⚔️ Works with the default turn-based system and with Active Time Battle (TPB).
