Calling an API from a MACRO

Hi guys, I am having a little trouble with the AMMO API, it works great via the chat and a simple macro, but I wanted to call the API from a more complex MACRO and I having bad results, so the scenario is as follows: 1. I installed the AMMO API and it is working fine, no issues via chat or using a simple macro: !ammo @{selected|character_id} arrows -1 2. I have another macro that I use for range attacks: &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{selected|character_name}}} {{subtags=Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un @{selected|weapon2name} }} {{attack1= Para lograrlo necesitas un AC ?{AC Maligno|10} o mayor y sacaste un [[ 1d20cs>19 + ?{Modificador|0} + [[ @{selected|rangedattackbonus} ]] ]] }} 3. If I try to call the Arrows simple macro with #Arrows, in the chat the following message is showing: Darian Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un Light crossbow Para lograrlo necesitas un AC 10 o mayor y sacaste un 8 !ammo -KR_7ikcBT1S82pNWCOl arrows -1 4. Sorry about the Spanish  5. As you can see, in bold, that is the result when I try to call the #Arrows within the complex macro and the API is not working like that. Can someone please help me? Thanks, Moises H.

Hmmm, weird, I use !ammo inside a complex macro on the pathfinder sheet. Try moving the !ammo call inside the attack macro itself: &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{selected|character_name}}} {{subtags=Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un @{selected|weapon2name} }} {{attack1= Para lograrlo necesitas un AC ?{AC Maligno|10} o mayor y sacaste un [[ 1d20cs>19 + ?{Modificador|0} + [[ @{selected|rangedattackbonus} ]] ]] }} !ammo @{selected|character_name} arrows -1 Not sure why that should improve it, but that is how I call it for the gunwielding magus that one of my players plays.

Hmm... I've never tried to call ammo from a macro via a macro.  Try just placing the  !ammo @{selected|character_id} arrows -1 line in your macro where you were putting #Arrows and see if that works

Thanks guys, I tried both options and still getting the same result :(

What is the exact text of the attack macro that you were trying (both your previous macro in a macro version, and the version that Aaron and I suggested.

This is the macro programming I am using today without any change and it works: &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{selected|character_name}}} {{subtags=Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un @{selected|weapon2name} }} {{attack1= Para lograrlo necesitas un AC ?{AC Maligno|10} o mayor y sacaste un [[ 1d20cs>19 + ?{Modificador|0} + [[ @{selected|rangedattackbonus} ]] ]] }} And the below is the macro modified with the AMMO API call: &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{selected|character_name}}} {{subtags=Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un @{selected|weapon2name} }} {{attack1= Para lograrlo necesitas un AC ?{AC Maligno|10} o mayor y sacaste un [[ 1d20cs>19 + ?{Modificador|0} + [[ @{selected|rangedattackbonus} ]] ]] #Arrows }} Thanks.

Move the #Arrows outside the closing }} and put it on it's own line. &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{selected|character_name}}} {{subtags=Ataca al maligno desde lejos con un @{selected|weapon2name} }} {{attack1= Para lograrlo necesitas un AC ?{AC Maligno|10} o mayor y sacaste un [[ 1d20cs>19 + ?{Modificador|0} + [[ @{selected|rangedattackbonus} ]] ]] }} #Arrows

Yep, that's what I thought the issue was, if it still doesn't work, replace #Arrows in Aaron's example with the actual API command (still on it's own line) as seen in  my post above .

OMG, it worked, thanks The Aaron!!!

Thanks Scott C for your time and patience!

No worries.  Happy Rolling!
