Macro for displaying core NPC stats

I am looking for a macro that shows the core stats of an NPC, so that I do not have to go back to the character sheet all the time during the game. On a video about how to create macros this kind of a macro was referred to, but the macro was not shown and I cannot find a posting, which contains the macro.

Just have a macro that says /w gm @{selected|AC} AC, @{Selected|Reflex} Reflex, etc etc. When you click on a token, then on the macro, you're good to go. You could also do /w gm @{target|AC} AC, @{target|Hit Points} HP, etc. Just call for the pure attributes in a bare-bones macro and label them, and they shall appear!

WilliamG, what sheet are you using? Some of them have built in macros specifically for that sort of thing.

thanks

I am using the 5th Edition OGL Roll 20 sheet I have created a macro, which works, but I would like to ask for one piece of advice. /w GM &{template:default} {{name=Stats}} {{Name=@{selected|npc_name}}} {{Level=@{selected|level}}} {{AC=@{selected|AC}}} {{HP=@{selected|npc_hpbase}}} {{Speed=@{selected|npc_speed}}} {{STR=@{selected|strength}}} {{STR MOD=@{selected|npcd_str_mod}}} {{DEX=@{selected|dexterity}}} {{DEX MOD=@{selected|npcd_dex_mod}}} {{CON=@{selected|constitution}}} {{CON MOD=@{selected|npcd_con_mod}}} {{INT=@{selected|intelligence}}} {{INT MOD=@{selected|npcd_int_mod}}} {{WIS=@{selected|wisdom}}} {{WIS MOD=@{selected|npcd_wis_mod}}} {{CHA=@{selected|charisma}}} {{CHA MOD=@{selected|npcd_cha_mod}}} {{Immunity=@{selected|npc_immunities}}} {{Immunity Condition=@{selected|npc_condition_immunities}}} {{Senses=@{selected|npc_sensesbase}}} {{Type=@{selected|npc_type}}} {{Challenge=@{selected|npcd_challenge}}} {{XP=@{selected|npcd_xp}}} It looks like this: Stats Name Zombie Level 1 AC 8 HP 22 (3d8 + 9) Speed 20 ft. STR 13 STR MOD (+1) DEX 6 DEX MOD (-2) CON 16 CON MOD (+3) INT 3 INT MOD (-4) WIS 6 WIS MOD (-2) CHA 5 CHA MOD (-3) Immunity poison Immunity Condition poisoned Senses darkvision 60 ft. Type Medium undead, neutral evil Challenge 1/4 XP (50 XP) What I would like to do is to put the attribute and the modifier on the same line. For example, STR 13 (+1) instead of putting the values on two lines as it is currently. I have made various attempts, which have all failed. Does anyone have a suggestion about how to construct the syntax in order to accomplish my goal?

I have made various attempts, which have all failed. Does anyone have a suggestion about how to construct the syntax in order to accomplish my goal? Honestly (and this is pretty unhelpful), I would just get rid of the roll template. It takes up a huge amount of room in the chat window (so there's no chance you'll ever see all the stats without scrolling a bunch), and limits you (as far as I know) to one value per column. I would make a macro like this /talktomyself Creature Stats for @{selected|npc_name}, Level @{selected|Level} @{selected|HP_base} HP. Speed @{selected|npc_speed}. AC: @{Selected|AC}. **Attributes:** STR @{selected|Str} (@{selected|npcd_str_mod}). Dex @{Selected|Dex} (@{selected|npcd_dex_mod}). Con @{Selected|Con} (@{selected|npcd_con_mod}). Int @{Selected|Int} (@{selected|npcd_int_mod}). Wis @{Selected|Wis} (@{selected|npcd_Wis_mod}). Cha @{Selected|Cha} (@{selected|npcd_cha_mod}). [Add in immunity and other stuff here] /talktomyself and so on. It will be less column-organized than a roll template, but will provide more compact info. Hope that's helpful.

Just put them together /w GM &{template:default} {{name=Stats}} {{Name=@{selected|npc_name}}} {{Level=@{selected|level}}} {{AC=@{selected|AC}}} {{HP=@{selected|npc_hpbase}}} {{Speed=@{selected|npc_speed}}} {{STR=@{selected|strength} (@{selected|npcd_str_mod}) }} {{DEX=@{selected|dexterity} (@{selected|npcd_dex_mod}) }} {{CON=@{selected|constitution} (@{selected|npcd_con_mod}) }}  {{INT=@{selected|intelligence} (@{selected|npcd_int_mod}) }} {{WIS=@{selected|wisdom} (@{selected|npcd_wis_mod}) }} {{CHA=@{selected|charisma} (@{selected|npcd_cha_mod}) }} {{Immunity=@{selected|npc_immunities}}} {{Immunity Condition=@{selected|npc_condition_immunities}}} {{Senses=@{selected|npc_sensesbase}}} {{Type=@{selected|npc_type}}} {{Challenge=@{selected|npcd_challenge}}} {{XP=@{selected|npcd_xp}}}

Thanks very much

If it's not too late and you want it tighter and to look more like 5e information try this out.  /w GM &{template:npcaction} {{rname=@{selected|npc_name}}} {{description=**AC** = @{selected|AC} **Type** = @{selected|npc_type} **Challenge** = @{selected|npcd_challenge} **XP** = @{selected|npcd_xp} **HP** = @{selected|npc_hpbase} **Speed** = @{selected|npc_speed} **STR** = @{selected|strength} @{selected|npcd_str_mod} **DEX** = @{selected|dexterity} @{selected|npcd_dex_mod} **CON** = @{selected|constitution}} @{selected|npcd_con_mod} **INT** = @{selected|intelligence} @{selected|npcd_int_mod} **WIS** = @{selected|wisdom} @{selected|npcd_wis_mod} **CHA** = @{selected|charisma} @{selected|npcd_cha_mod} **Immunity** = @{selected|npc_immunities}} **Immunity Condition** = @{selected|npc_condition_immunities}} **Senses** = @{selected|npc_sensesbase}}}

Nice!

That looks pretty nice, Justin!  I did notice a small typo:

Thanks, much appreciated

Funny I was tinkering with a new macro today and noticed the typos myself. Yours probably would have tipped me off sooner but I lost the thread since I forgot to follow.

Maybe someone else will weigh in on this post. Unfortunately i do not know how to help you.

Hopefully. Do you think you'll find it useful?

I decided I wanted the HP to be a rolled stat for a bit of randomizasion, so I added a small bit of code to the **HP** line. /w GM &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Stats}} {{name=@{selected|npc_name}}} {{description=**AC** : @{selected|AC} @{selected|npcd_actype} **Type** = @{selected|npc_type} **Challenge** = @{selected|npcd_challenge} **XP** = @{selected|npcd_xp} **HP** = [[@{selected|npc_hpformula}]] | @{selected|npc_hpformula} **Speed** = @{selected|npc_speed} **STR** = @{selected|strength} @{selected|npcd_str_mod}  **DEX** = @{selected|dexterity} @{selected|npcd_dex_mod} **CON** = @{selected|constitution} @{selected|npcd_con_mod} **INT** = @{selected|intelligence} @{selected|npcd_int_mod} **WIS** = @{selected|wisdom} @{selected|npcd_wis_mod} **CHA** = @{selected|charisma} @{selected|npcd_cha_mod} **Immunity** = @{selected|npc_immunities} **Immunity Condition** = @{selected|npc_condition_immunities} **Senses** = @{selected|npc_sensesbase}}}

I do find it useful

I especially like that you demonstrated how to dynamically perform a die roll using **HP** = [[@{selected|npc_hpformula}]]. This is very useful.

I moved the Saving throw macro question to its own post and Silvyre replied w/ a very nice option. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/5035451/please-help-w-slash-macro-for-saving-throw-5e-style-moved" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/5035451/please-help-w-slash-macro-for-saving-throw-5e-style-moved</a>
