[5e OGL] Skills syntax error.

As I started migrating character sheets that I had been keeping on .txt files, when I generated the sheet for 1 player in particular the skills stopped working and returns this error message: SyntaxError: Expected "(", ".", "[", "abs(", "ceil(", "d", "floor(", "round(", "t", "{", [ |\t], [+|\-] or [0-9] but end of input found.

Hi Cid, which sheet are you using? Is it the same sheet as the one used for the original characters? By migrating do you mean filling in a sheet manually using the information in your .txt file? Thanks

I'm filling in the 5E OGL-type sheets manually, yes, exactly as the fields say, but somehow I get that syntax error which I have a feeling says it's missing information... When there isn't even anything to fill in where the skills window is concerned?

Ok thanks for confirming, could you provide a screen shot of the broken players sheet as well as a working one? A shot of the settings menu for the broken sheet would be handy too.

Ziechael does late-night modding, like me, so will likely get back to you sometime tonight :)

Odd indeed, on a sheet that works fine run one of the affected skills and then click into the chat box and press the up key. Copy this code somewhere for reference and then have a look on the 'broken' sheet, under the attributes and abilities tab and look to see if any of the attributes being called have duplicate entries (that don't match the values you'd expect to see) which need deleting. The sheets look fine so there is either something in the background being called that just isn't visible or the sheet is cursed and you'll need an old priest and a young priest (or try creating the sheet again from scratch and delete the cursed one ;) ).

I wouldn't even know where to begin with these. @{Ryoji Shimabukuro|wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{perception-u}}} {{mod=@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|perception_bonus}}} {{r1=[[@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|d20}+@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|perception_bonus}@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|pbd_safe}]]}} @{Ryoji Shimabukuro|rtype}+@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|perception_bonus}@{Ryoji Shimabukuro|pbd_safe}]]}} @{Ryoji Shimabukuro|global_skill_mod} @{Ryoji Shimabukuro|charname_output} @{Haruka Fujiwara|wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{perception-u}}} {{mod=@{Haruka Fujiwara|perception_bonus}}} {{r1=[[@{Haruka Fujiwara|d20}+@{Haruka Fujiwara|perception_bonus}@{Haruka Fujiwara|pbd_safe}]]}} @{Haruka Fujiwara|rtype}+@{Haruka Fujiwara|perception_bonus}@{Haruka Fujiwara|pbd_safe}]]}} @{Haruka Fujiwara|global_skill_mod} @{Haruka Fujiwara|charname_output}

My guess is that the problem has to do with the global_skill_mod attribute. Do you have the setting checked in the character settings? If you do, try placing a 0 in the global skill modifier section. If you don't, check the setting and place a 0 in the global skill modifier section. &nbsp;

I don't seem to get the global skill modifier field despite enabling it.

Make sure that you are looking under the TOOL PROFICIENCIES & CUSTOM SKILLS section. The box does not appear in the SKILLS section of the character sheet. If you still cannot see the box, check directly for&nbsp; the attribute in the ATTRIBUTES & ABILITIES page

Issue resolved! Thanks &gt;W&lt;

Great catch Kyle!
