GroupCheck API and Passive Perception in 5rd OGL Sheet

Hi; Have anyone ever made a command to add passive perception to the commands for Groupcheck? (I am using the 5ed OGL sheet) I tried to play with the information on the API page but I am not a computer wizard :( I came to this script but it breaks the api and all stops working. !group-check-config --add { “PassivePerception” : { "name" : “Passive Perception Test", "formula" : “[[10+%npc_perception]]"}} And the second syntax give me the error "Error reading input." do not include the check but not crashes: !group-check-config --add { “PassivePerception” : { "name" : “Passive Perception Test", "formula" : “%npc_passiveperceptionbase%”}} Any help is welcome! Thx

I came to this script but it breaks the api and all stops working. Sorry, the crash is a bug in the current version 1.7 and commands containing inline rolls. Will be fixed next week. Try this: !group-check-config --add { "PassivePerception" : { "name" : "Passive Perception Test", "formula" : "\[%npc_passiveperceptionbase%\]"} } The main problem with your second attempt was that it had some weird calligraphic quotes ( “ ” ) instead of straight quotes ("), so the input could not be parsed. You can also leave out the "\[" and "\]" if you don't want the output to be an inline roll, and want the straight number instead (it will look nicer with an inline roll though, especially if you're using --process). I don't know if  npc_passiveperceptionbase is the right attribute name though, since I don't know anything about the sheet ... anyway, include whatever is the right attribute in its place if it's not the right name.

Thank you very much! The  npc_passiveperceptionbase i s a attribute set for the Hoard of the Dragon Queen NPCS. It will do for NPC check but for players I will need to wait for the next week update. Thank vey much!

As a side note I was able to find a attribute for pc: !group-check-config --add { "PassivePerception" : { "name" : "Passive Perception Check", "formula" : "\[%passive_wisdom%\]"} } Thank you very much! I think I will need the roll correction to have a global formula that works for both :(

It will do for NPC check but for players I will need to wait for the next week update. You can try this formula, which should work for both PCs and NPCs (I think): \[10 + (%perception_bonus%%pbd_safe%*(1-%npc%)) [PC] + (%npc_perception%*%npc%) [NPC]\] This will probably work, although there's some bugs in the API with constant rolls, perhaps you need to try this instead: \[10 + 0d0 + (%perception_bonus%%pbd_safe%*(1-%npc%)) [PC] + (%npc_perception%*%npc%) [NPC]\] Edit: Oh, passive_wisdom is much easier than my calculation here, then. Disregard it :). Edit2: Nevermind, I misread. You can still try what I wrote here, maybe. I think I will need the roll correction to have a global formula that works for both :( You can still enter inline rolls in the config just fine with \[ \], so for this specific use case you should be able to do everything.

Jakob you Rocks! The passive_wisdom doesn't work for NPCs. SO your calculations saved me. Just for reference the final version is: !group-check-config --add { "PassivePerception" : { "name" : "Passive Perception Test", "formula" : "\[10 + 0d0 + (%perception_bonus%%pbd_safe%*(1-%npc%)) [PC] + (%npc_perception%*%npc%) [NPC]\]]"} } Thx again!

Cool, glad it worked.

For Hoard of the dragon queen module the AC attribute is npcd_AC, so if I want to create a new group-check I come up with the sentence below, but this is not working. Could you check this for me plesae? !group-check-config --add { "AC_New" : { "name" : "AC New", "formula" : "\[0d0 + (%AC%%pbd_safe%*(1-%npc%)) [PC] + (%npcd_ac%*%npc%) [NPC]\]]"} }

I also just realized that while I changed the documentation to accomodate that, I messed up when writing the documentation, so it's nonsense currently. The correct way to define this thing right now would be !group-check-config --add { "AC" : { "name" : "AC", "formula" : "\[0d0 + (\at{AC}\at{pbd_safe}*(1-\at{npc})) [PC] + (\at{npcd_ac}*\at{npc}) [NPC]\]"} } (No need for AC_New, it will automatically overwrite the old AC if you do it like this)

Worked like magic ;) have a great day!

This isnt working for me any recommendation saying "SyntaxError: Expected "(", ".", "[", "abs(", "ceil(", "d", "floor(", "round(", "t", "{", [ |\t], [+|\-] or [0-9] but "r" found."

As I said with the AC example, the syntax has changed, you should now use \at{attribute} instead of %attribute%.

Thank you this seemed to work !group-check-config --add { "PassivePerception" : { "name" : "Passive Perception Test", "formula" : "\[10 + 0d0 + (\at{perception_bonus}\at{pbd_safe}*(1-\at{npc})) [PC] + (\at{npc_perception}*\at{npc}) [NPC]\]"} }
