Is there anything we can do to help the restoration efforts of the wiki?

Also known as "Active Time Battle" in HOMM5 ( https://mightandmagic.fandom.com/wiki/ATB ) or all sorts of names in other systems ( https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedesign/comments/k65997/tabletop_rpg_final_fantasylike_initiative_how/ ) I would like to try to craft something like this in Maptoo...

The short of it: I am really displeased that the "JWrapper" does not provide me with the all important option to /choose/ where Maptool is installed or run from. But seeing the post by JamzTheMan on Mon Aug 21, 2017 2:29 pm at least gives me a sigh of relief. When can we expect the next ve...

The event organizer finally got the URL of the stream to me.
If anyone is interested: https://twitch.tv/artimage84
Things kick off at 9am Eastern American Time Zone on Saturday October 28th, and close at 1am on Sunday the 29th.

Thank you all very much for your replies, and your encouragement! I'm very glad to hear it.

I just got word from the fundraiser organizer, and he's made a call-to-action Youtube video.
If any of you are interested, here it is:

Thank you. I feel fairly confident and comfortable with Maptool software, particularly for the limited purposes I intend. I believe I have been using Maptool for at least 4 or 5 years now.

I hope this is the appropriate place to ask this, and I apologize if I've made an error in that regard. I have been invited to GM as part of a live-streamed fundraising event, and I would like to utilize your Maptool software to provide a play-space for the players and visual component for audience ...

       Ok, stop the presses. I see now the error of my original code.            It should have been: [h, code: { [IDTemp=getSelected()] [PUser=getImpersonated()] [token(+PUser):Trgt=IDTemp] }] Targetting [r:getName(IDTemp)].            And importantly, I needed to de-toggle "Apply to Selected ...

       Thank you for the suggestion, aliasmask, however I'm having a hell of a time deciphering that code so I can actually implement it. Seems like an awful lot just to grab an identity from a single token. Should I be able to just plug-and-play it by dropping it in to a new macro? If so, then what...

I've got a City of Heroes framework project I'm attempting to make functional in Maptool, and I'm wondering if there might be a solution to this problem yet. I've used the macro code of: [h,code: { [IDTemp=ID] [PUser="VileTerror"] [token(+PUser):Trgt=IDTemp] }] Targetting [r:token.name]. T...
