This is being overcomplicated. The point of ritual casting is to activate a spell without a spell slot outside of combat.

So, fine, make it like short rest is right now. You cast a ritual spell and bam. It is active. Instantly. Then, in Multiplayer, no big deal. No vote necessary. However, it is only possible to activate outside of Turn-Base mode. If in Turn Based, it costs a spell slot.

So, if Wynari the druid wants to Speak With Animals in the Druid Grove, she can activate it with the push of a button, no spell slot used, and then walk up to animals and talk. However, if fighting gobbos near Blighted Village and she runs into a dog, she uses a slot
