5th Edition OGL by Roll20 v2.1

Where is the 5eDefault template valid?  All macros I have tried that use this template fail.  I use the 5e OGL sheets.

Steve K. said: Kono said: We recently got an Ioun Stone of Mastery in our game and realised there is no way to increase the proficiency score. Could that be implemented in the next update please. You can set a custom PB from the settings tab. "PROFICIENCY BONUS" to "Custom" and set the value you desire. Can't believe we didn't see that, thanks. :)

Thank you Kyle, I was not finding that info anywhere.  Too bad the OGL has somewhat boring templates.

I'm sure it's not what you want to hear, but you can make your own roll templates using PowerCards API (which requires the creator of the game to have a pro subscription and the script installed for the game), or you could even create your own roll templates in a "custom" character sheet (just take the OGL code from the github repository and add more roll templates using CSS.

I posted this question as a separate post and it was recommended by Kyle G that I repost it here. I'm pasting, and editing a little for clarification. Also, Kyle's solution worked. I guess this is a bug. I've seen it off and on ever since I've used Roll20. What I call a spell 'button' (meaning clicking the name of the spell from the spell tab of the character sheet) seems to become corrupted over time, and produce gibberish text. Spells will work fine at first, then in a later session will behave badly, as described below.  For example: I have a cleric character sheet with the spell Cure Wounds on his sheet. If I click the name of the Cure Wounds spell on the spell tab of the character sheet, this output is produced in chat: JethroB (GM): -L1Sr3RwSDRbJZNmKwF4|repeating_attack_-L2JDn1UIIYBsY-3XZ39_attack But if I click 'Cure Wounds' from the 'Attacks & Spellcasting' area of the core page, I get the expected query for casting level, the roll, and the formatted output of the spell result. If I make a macro to cast the spell, it will be affected by the same bug. This seems to only affect spells that involve some sort of a roll, not spells that print to spell cards. I can fix this by deleting Cure Wounds from the spell sheet and re-adding it. This is quick with spells that are in the compendium, but a big pain with spells that aren't. I'm tired of doing this over and over, and am honestly about ready to bolt to FantasyGrounds over this. Can anyone explain or have a solution?

Hi all, I'm involved in an organized play group where we frequently utilize the character vault to move characters between games. We've been seeing a consistent problem in all the games where the built in spell templates (for spell attacks) fail after a character has been exported into a new game. I see that this issue has also been reported above The error appears as such: No ability was found for %{-LCyGvnZ5iN2S6ivcA5s|repeating_attack_attack} If I switch a parituclar spell back and forth from a spell card to a spell attack, it seems to solve the problem, but this is causing us a good deal of pain and consternation. Thanks.

One thing I've noticed - if I use the spell slot tracking feature, I have noticed that spells that have the attack box checked (as an example, Scorching Ray that requires an attack roll) the slots remaining counter is not decremented but if I uncheck the attack box, the slots remaining count works fine. Magic Missile has no attack and works perfectly. Is this a bug or is there something that needs to be changed for spells that use an attack?  To be  sure, I have not yet spent the time to read through all the pages in this thread so it may already have been addressed. If it has, forgive the redundancy and please point me to the answer. Thanks, folks. I am very new to Roll20 and find it a wonderful tool.

Magic Missile has no attack and works perfectly. Is this a bug or is there something that needs to be changed for spells that use an attack?  Something to note about spell tracking, it is only triggered when damage is rolled, not when attacks are rolled. This is why you are seeing it work for magic missiles, which deals damage, and scorching ray, which requires an attack roll to be made before damage is rolled. When you click on the damage for scorching ray in chat, are you then prompted for spell level? Or is this not happening for you? If there is no prompt or spell tracking when rolling the damage of scorching ray, then it is most certainly a bug so we would need to see how you have configured the spell on the character sheet.

Hello, is there a way to make an item that boosts Initiative rolls? Similar to +1 shields or how gauntlets of Ogre Strength set your strength to 19. I've tried making a custom 'equipment' slot and typed "Initiative: 1" into the mods list because I've seen how a similar format affects AC with the +1 Shield, but it doesn't seem to affect anything for the Initative Roll. Am I typing it incorrectly or is this not possible? Thanks!

Am I typing it incorrectly or is this not possible? Thanks! This is not currently possible through the equipment section as there is no item modifier for initiative. There is however a character setting that you can adjust to account for this kind of item. The only downside is that if the character unequips the item, you will have to update this setting as well.

Thanks for the amazing sheet guys! I've been using it with my group for years now. Is there a way to change which bars are autopopulated when I drag and drop a monster from the compendium? If possible I'd like to switch the monsters' AC to go to bar 3 instead of bar 2. I didn't notice anything in the game settings page and I haven't checked the sheet's html for it yet.

However, making a change here will only ensure the bars of new  compendium drags have the right values. In order to updated pre-existing characters, I would recommend using Token Mod with your Pro subscription

I have a pretty decent macro that actually sets my characters up using TheAaron's TokenMod, rolls health, and turns off their vision as to not bog down Advanced Fog of War. The macro with TokenMod installed looks like the following. I use the Red Bar myself for health as I don't like how the green bar get's covered if the z order is messed up, but I think you can see how you can change the different bars to accomplish this. !token-mod {{ --set bar1_link| bar2_link| bar3_link| bar1| bar2| bar3| --set light_radius|light_dimradius| --off light_hassight --off showname --set bar3|[[@{selected|npc_hpformula}]] --set bar2_value|@{selected|npc_ac} --set bar1_value|[[10 + [[@{selected|npc_perception}]]]] }}

So how would I go about making that change? I'm totally fine with it only being for new compendium drags and I'll try to look at TokenMod for the existing ones. But to change the defaults what exactly do I edit? Do i need to put something like a character attribute like npc_ac into the left box under bar 3?

One of my players runs into this (who also happens to be my girlfriend, so I get an earful about it regularly).  The fastest way to get around it we've found is switching it from a spell attack to a spellcard and back again.  It's still a pain though.

Thank you for the sheet!

The Edit button is currently not working on the seet. I cannot share with the correct player so he can update and control it. Anybody with the same problem?

Yup! Charactermancer install messed it up

I'm also experiencing that as well as many errors with attacks and spells, using macros or not this is the error I get: "Error: cannot call methods on dialog prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'destroy'" I made another post but figure I'd post here. When I select the edit button this is what I see:  12:39:43.252 jquery-1.9.1.js:507 Uncaught Error: cannot call methods on dialog prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'destroy' at Function.error ( jquery-1.9.1.js:507 ) at HTMLDivElement.&lt;anonymous&gt; ( jquery-ui.1.9.0.custom.min.js?3:5 ) at Function.each ( jquery-1.9.1.js:648 ) at jQuery.fn.init.each ( jquery-1.9.1.js:270 ) at jQuery.fn.init.$.fn.( /editor/anonymous function ) [as dialog] ( <a href="https://app.roll20.net/js/jquery-ui.1.9.0.custom.min.js?3:5:8044" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/js/jquery-ui.1.9.0.custom.min.js?3:5:8044</a> ) at HTMLButtonElement.click ( app.js?1530034305:351 ) at Function.access ( jquery-1.9.1.js:866 ) at Function.access ( jquery-1.9.1.js:838 ) at jQuery.fn.init.attr ( jquery-1.9.1.js:2047 ) at Object.&lt;anonymous&gt; ( jquery-ui.1.9.0.custom.min.js?3:5 )

Seems to be not just the Roll20 5e sheet - as affect GURPS sheet I just tested

The update broke the Community Pathfinder sheet as well, I'm also getting the same "Error: cannot call methods on dialog prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'destroy'" error whenever I try to use nested macros as well, and it's only outputting the first nested macro as well. The text in the macros is also tiny for whatever reason.&nbsp;

Another problem. The background field was moved to the line below and messed with all. in the core page header.

Tim W. said: No attribute was found for @{Sebastian (Tim)|global_damage_mod} No attribute was found for @{Sebastian (Tim)|global_damage_type} Do you have the global damage mod field turned on from the settings (gear) tab but that area is currently blank?

Automatic calculation of Spell Save DC and Spell Attack bonus on many (though not all) of my character sheets is not working and are defaulting to 0.&nbsp; Changing which attribute it is supposed to be derived from does not change these numbers on affected character sheets either.&nbsp; When bringing in new cantrips that should have their damage increased since this is an 11th level character it also fails to calculate that. A cantrip that already existed on the character sheet, however, calculates increased damage normally.

When you pop out the character sheet the character info box on the top of the core page and bio page offset and don't sit in the box right and it's kind of disorienting.&nbsp; Popout: pre-popped sheet

The sheet doesn't see to be tracking spell slot, deathsaves or thing of that nature.

Is there a way to add/remove lines for a table in the Bio/Info tab? All of my character sheets had tables previously before the update and now all of my gridlines are gone AND I have no way to add and delete rows. I tried starting a new table but once you create one you cannot add or delete rows to it like before. Is this feature gone?

We are aware of the issue with tables and will be working on it. It's a high priority to fix.

I don't know if this is the right thread to this sort of thing, so I apologize in advance. I wanted to know if there is a way to add the attack and damage rolls of a spell on the Spellcard output. I've used the community sheet for a long time, and customizing the spell output was one of my favorite features by far.

I'm assuming this is an old issue you know about - but just in case Make default option for Advantage to be query Create character... the character shows as always rolling advantage oddly the query does come up even so

Oh. why... is my message stuck to the right of Vanilo's issue image?

Well thats certainly unexpected behaviour lol... I'll cross-post the permalinks to the text editor report thread for you.

Are you guys referring to the Prepared Dots that appear next to the spells? I create a new character in an existing game this morning and they were still there. But I do see the actual checkbox is missing when you expand the spell.
