Hi everyone,
I'm running a campaign where I use both D&D 5e 2014 (OGL) sheets and the new D&D 5e 2024 official sheet (by Roll20). I'm encountering an issue with the GroupInitiative API script: ❗ The problem: When using the 2024 character sheet , the script does not correctly read the initiative modifier . It either rolls just 1d20 with no bonus, or defaults to 0.
With the 2014 (OGL) sheet, it works perfectly fine — initiative modifiers are read and included correctly in the rolls. ✅ What I've tried:
Clearing and redefining the initiative group with:
bash Copia Modifica !group-init --del-group 1
!group-init --add-group --bare initiative_bonus
and also:
bash Copia Modifica !group-init --add-group --bare dexterity_mod
Ensured the token is properly linked to the character.
Verified that initiative shows correctly in the character sheet UI (top of the sheet, next to Armor Class). 🔍 What I suspect: The 2024 sheet likely calculates initiative dynamically using derived attributes, and does not expose a raw attribute that the API can access via --bare . ❓ My questions:
Has anyone successfully configured GroupInitiative to work with the new 2024 5e character sheet?
Is there a hidden or alternative attribute name I can use?
Is there a workaround (e.g., creating a custom attribute manually for initiative)?
Are there any plans to update GroupInitiative for compatibility with the 2024 sheet?
🧩 Context:
GroupInitiative version: latest from the Roll20 Script Library
Sheets in use:
✅ D&D 5e OGL 2014 → working fine
❌ D&D 5e 2024 Official Sheet by Roll20 → initiative not detected
Account type: PRO
I can provide sandbox access or example characters if needed.
Thanks a lot in advance!
