Can I call campaign macros?

Hi community! I was wondering if I can call a campaign macro the similar to the way that I call a macro from a token or a lib

Code: Select all

[MACRO("myMacro@this"):""]

Thanks.

Yes. CAMPAIGN and GLOBAL are also allowed as well as a token name and this after the @. This is NOT documented in [macro:], sooooo.... perhaps someone would update the wiki, preferably someone who has used this before and point out any limitations/requirements.

Good catch for the wiki.

Thanks guys. After I written this post I was looking around and I saw the campaign name used someplace else so I was pretty sure that you could call a macro from the campaign list. But because it wasn't documented and because I haven't had an opportunity to check it yet; I wasn't sure if it would work. Thank you again.

Hey jfrazierjr, I tried using a token name in my macro location but it came up with this error:

Error running onTokenMove on lib:OnTokenMove 80 : Macros from other tokens are only available if the token name starts with "Lib:".

I was able to run a macro in the campaign location using the name and the campaign for the location.
Here is the macro name:

And this is the location:

sawblade_curve_half_blood_gt

I am currently running Maptools 1.3b84 and Rumble's 5.1.1 framework but it would seem like this would be a maptools issue rather than a framework one.
