Help with Macros

Post by heimer »

So I figured out that I can manipulate the health bars of the tokens via macros NICE
[h: setBar("Health", 0.53)]

will set it to 53% BUT .... I have to impersonate the token first :/

Any way to get this to work with just selecting it(as in clicking it on the screen) and not having to choose impersonate???

Thank you

Typically, you can only manipulate tokens you own which gives you permission. If you want to use protected functions then create a lib token and put the macro on there. Then call the macro from another place like from a player token, Campaign Window or other places. I recommend going through the video tutorials.

Look at the 'token()' roll option
