Identify Character Sheet used

Currently, there are 2 sheets for Starfinder - the official Roll20 one, and the "Simple Sheet". I am updating my script and I'd like it to support both sheets (rather than 2 separate scripts). To do that, I need to figure out how to ask the campaign which sheet it is using. How do I do that?

The by Roll20 sheet has a character_sheet attribute that should have a value like "Starfinder v1.0071566306000". I'm not sure if Roll20 is still updating the version number or not, but you should be able to look for that attribute and know if the by Roll20 sheet is used or not. Alternatively, put a chat (or handout) menu in your script that lets users tell it which sheet they are using.

I saw that attribute but I was hoping to do this without creating a new character or resorting to asking the GM. Oh, well - I already have the script creating a message on startup, I could always tell it to also create a single character to query data.  You have been most helpful! Thank you so very much!

Oh Wait! Since Guidance's main function is to import stats into an existing sheet. It'd be easy just to wait until importing actually started and THEN determine the state. I'm a dumbass for not thinking of that.

That would make a lot of things simpler.

Agree, and it's on that list we made. keithcurtis said: Scott C. said: The by Roll20 sheet has a character_sheet attribute that should have a value like "Starfinder v1.0071566306000".

Agreed!
