So I recently discovered some really silly applications of the Ability Command Buttons feature. You can use it to create character prompts for your players as a DM, or even your other players as a player. For example: Pasting this into Roll20: [The fireball explodes in your midst! Attempt to dodge!](~selected|dexterity_save) Will create a pink box button that if your players click it will roll a dex save as long as their token is selected. For extra atmosphere you can precede it with /desc to move it into the description template. I was thinking if this was turned into a more robust system it could be a real boon to DMs to prompt players to do the right things. I am having a really hard time with figuring out how to insert these things into queries, but can anyone who understands this better tell me if this might be something where it could be written in a sequential query where it went something like this? - Click Button -> Prompt Opens Up Demanding Flavor Text -> I type in "The fireball explodes in your midst! Attempt to dodge!" -> This is inserted into the Button text -> A dropdown appears asking me to select the prompt response from: Initiative, The 6 Ability Checks, The 6 Ability Saves, the 18 skills. They're all of the format ~selected|strength, ~selected|strength_save, ~selected|sleight_of_hand for example. Then you could have it output things like: [The goblins surround you, they grip their shortswords tightly... prepare for combat.](~selected|initiative) [Your party looks around the room, trying to find any evidence of foul play.](~selected|investigation) Anyone have any ideas on how this could be used more easily or is this something best typed by hand each time?
