I got a very helpful reply from Aliasmask in the Discord channel. Thanks! Solution: [h: gmOnly = isNPC()] [h: varsFromStrProp(MainSkills)] [h: Lore1 = Lore1a)] [h: Lore2 = Lore2a)] [h: status = input( strformat("skillToRoll|Acrobatics, Arcana, Athletics, Crafting, Deception, Diplomacy, Intimida...

Ok, I am stumped. I can't get a silly little snippet of code to work. I've got my skill modifiers in a key-pair string prop (Acrobatics=3,Arcana=2,Athletics=0.....). I call an input() to choose which skill I want to roll, then pull the modifier from the skill add it to the roll and that's it. The on...

That did the trick, thanks. I've managed to avoid JSON objects for 7 years or so and was hoping to continue doing so

Brushing the dust off my MT skills after doing zero coding in a couple of years. I have a Summon Token macro that pulls pre-generated summon monster and summon natures ally tokens from a map. The macro worked 2-3 years ago (the last time I played DnD). I am getting a: Argument number 4 to function &...

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen! I've been absent from DnD for over 2 years now, due to complications from human replication. Now that we have mostly ironed out the initial hiccups of having a miniature human running about, I am going to start DMing again. I have downloaded the newest version of map...

To give you guys an idea of the mood I am going for, here is what I have done so far with about a days worth of labor. I have just barely begun to carve out the VBL, and only the NW corner and a little more has been fleshed out in detail, but I think you'll see the atmosphere I'm going for :) P.S. I...

Really?! Out of all the clever people in here and most likely the large percentage of DM's, only 3 responses?

Boooooo, hiss.

So, on a rare d100 roll of 100 for encounters, I like to do something 'special'. I roll another d100 and if it is in the lower 50 I plan an encounter that is bad or negative that will challenge the group and in the top 50 I plan something good and/or unique. This time around, I had my group encounte...

There are some amazing frameworks available from some very skilled coders here on the Maptools forum. However, for my needs, many of these nuclear powered jet planes are orders of magnitude above what I required at my table. I needed a simple table-top augmentation, not a table-top replacement. Some...

Ok, so this was going to be a big long post of all the things I have tried, and I feel like an idiot. I had tried all these complicated things, JSON's, token properties, and every possible configuration of [g:] with [if] and more. On a whim, I stripped away all the complications and went with bare-b...

While building my lightweight framework, for the longest time I struggled with hiding information from my players when manipulating NPC tokens with my macros. I ended up taking an extremely simplified approach just so I could move on and deal with verbose output later. Example: PC's do a perception ...

Ugh, really ? I am surprised they let that spam post up here. I mostly regret ever ordering from them. I got a great deal on a bunch of third party rando-tables for Love you DM Day, but now I get endless streams of spam about exciting 'related' products. No amount of unsubscribing seems to help, the...

Excellent, thank you for the quick answer.

I am going back through and just declaring the vars first at the beginning of the code. I guess the code is a little easier to read that way anyway. I was just trying to be clever, which usually breaks my code

Is there a valid equivalent to the following code? I can get around this problem by declaring all my hidden Token Properties as local variables in this UDF, but I just got done rewriting all the code to call the properties from the token. [h: output.tip = strformat("<html> <table><tr><td colspa...
