I use a number of API's that read data from GM Notes or write data to GM Notes. The latest change has changed the formatting of that item and now those API's are no longer working. Is this something that can be changed back? I run games up to 2x per week using Roll20 and those API's save me hundreds of hours a year. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Thomas, The devs are actively working to resolve any issues with the text editor. I have added a ticket so they can investigate. Some additional questions: What API scripts are you using? Does this happen in any particular games or just a few? Does this script pull from tables?

Hi Drespar. The chief ones affected are CharUtils by The Aaron. This happens in all games. The script does not pull from tables.

The new GM notes also seems to have broken CreatureGen as well in all games I use it in. I do not think it pulls from tables, but I'm not 100% sure

Yep. CreatureGen is broken now. Been trying to get it to work for the past hour and kept scratching my head until I realized that it was broken. I have a ton of monsters to create for my game and tonight was the night I was going to get most of the work done. :(

I found a work-around: mark the statblock as "code" in the GM Notes dropdown. That allows CreatureGen to work normally.

Also seems to be screwing with the Tongues API Script.
