Area of Affect Script

With the recent changes to Roll20 i have noticed html output for the Area of affect Script to chat by Stephen L seems to be broken. It displays as follows: This is happening in all game new and existing. Disabling/Re-enabling the script seems to have no affect  Upon further testing I disabled that script (Using the one click install) and load he Raw Directly from Roll20 Github  This works as expected here as shown below: I think its has something to do with the One click installer, both version are 1.6, the only difference is loading the script manually vs using the one click install.  Regards, Mark

That looks like it's doing HTML expansions in the 1-click. I encode all my HTML entities to prevent a similar problem in some browsers. I'll try and pass this up the chain. 

Yeah i kinda figured it might be something like that. Didn't see anyone post about it, but thought Someone might like to know in case they run into later when someone uses the script.  Thanks Aaron oh Script-FU Master.

The script uses unicode characters as icons in its chat menu. Looks like Roll20 decided to not support unicode anymore...

Stephen L. said: The script uses unicode characters as icons in its chat menu. Looks like Roll20 decided to not support unicode anymore... Ah that's unfortunate. For now I have a work around not using the one click install and the buttons seem to display for the moment so not to critical but the oneclick install version seems to have the issue with it.  Thought I'd give you a heads up so it can get fixed when you have time.  Mark

Try putting the Unicode characters in as HTML Entities with the & separates until they are printed. It should work fine then.  Probably they are storing it in a database with a different character set which corrupts the multibyte characters. 

I fixed this about a week ago, but forgot to inform the thread about it. Unicode characters should now display correctly for the script again. 

Thanks Stephen, looks like the oneclick adds splitargs which it did not before, so I was getting an error for that however removing and reinstalling it works as intended now. !!! Thanks for working on the script!!

Hey :) I have an issue with the areas of effect script since last update. Disabling the script lets the other scripts work :) Is there a known solution ? in the chat : (From Areas of Effect): ERROR: bshields is not defined in the api log : "ReferenceError: bshields is not defined\n    at apiscript.js:12647:18\n    at eval (eval at <anonymous> (/home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:151:1), <anonymous>:65:16)\n    at Object.publish (eval at <anonymous> (/home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:151:1), <anonymous>:70:8)\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:1634:12\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:560\n    at hc (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:39:147)\n    at Kd (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:546)\n    at Id.Mb (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:489)\n    at Zd.Ld.Mb (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:94:425)\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:111:400" "Areas Of Effect ERROR: bshields is not defined" "ReferenceError: bshields is not defined\n    at apiscript.js:12647:18\n    at eval (eval at <anonymous> (/home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:151:1), <anonymous>:65:16)\n    at Object.publish (eval at <anonymous> (/home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:151:1), <anonymous>:70:8)\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/api.js:1634:12\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:560\n    at hc (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:39:147)\n    at Kd (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:546)\n    at Id.Mb (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:93:489)\n    at Zd.Ld.Mb (/home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:94:425)\n    at /home/node/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:111:400"

I believe that is happening because you are missing a dependent api script called split args. After the changes Stephen made the one click install version adds this if you did not have installed. I simply just added it to my other games that use it and that resolved that issue.  Splitargs can be found as part of the onclick installs.  Pantoufle said: Hey :) I have an issue with the areas of effect script since last update.

Ah ok! I'll try that this evening :)

Huh... I'm surprised the One-Click library doesn't automagically check for new dependencies when a new script version is available.  On a slightly related note to this thread, unicode characters present in the chat menu for the Custom Status Markers script should also be working now. 

Good Deal Stephen, thanks for all the work you put in to your scripts !!!
