If I try to use this call... createObj("rollabletable", { name: "Green", showplayers: true }); I get this messages... "ERROR: Tried to create an invlid object type. See the API Documentation for valid types." I did look at the API docs and it seems like this should work. Any help would be appreciated. P.S. The word invalid is misspelled in the error message.

"Note: Currently only characters, handouts, attributes, and abilities can be created. Other objects will be supported soon." Unfortunatly you can't create a rollable table, however if you make blank ones and name them blank, you can use a script to modify them.

No worries bro. Easiest way is to make a few blank tables, and from there, it's easy to make a script to assign the blank unused table a name, and then populate it!

Untested waters, but here's what I came up with. <a href="https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6732051" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6732051</a> just name the table you want to use the script with "blank"

Was trying to come up with a scrip that will set up a Leviathans game for anyone that wants to get one going pretty quickly. There are 5 roll-able tables, and some macros that have to be set up. I guess I will have to wait. No issues. Thanks for your help.

Well, after some tinkering with the API and tables as a whole, all it returns is {"name":"x","showplayers":true,"_type":"rollabletable","_id":"-J4VZSCayBX530zM3rjj"} The obj id remains the same no matter how the table is updated, meaning there's some behind the scenes on how it works.
