Group Initiative/Turn Tracker Non-5E Games

Understandably it seems like many APIs are geared toward 5E or even P2. I play Castles and Crusades so am having difficulty converting some of the APIs and example MACROS to C&C specifics. For example, Group Initiative. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to have the API pull from attributes on the C&C sheet over the 5E sheet. Etc. Also can you reroll initiative using Group Initiative?

You'll want to delete whatever group it has set up, if you choose one of the default settings: !group-init --del-group 1 Then add a bonus stat group for your sheet: !group-init --add-group --bare SomeAttrName Not knowing your sheet, I can't say what it would be, but if you paste what you might do in the chat, I can translate that to a GroupInitiative config.  GroupInitiative predates the existence of Character Sheets on Roll20, so it's very versatile.  I recently added some helpers for popular sheets, but they are just helpers and not indicative of restricted functionality. Rerolling everyone in the turn tracker can be done with: !group-init --reroll Or you can just turn on replace roll in the help and roll again for selected tokens with: !group-init

Once you get it figured out for your sheet, I would recommend having a "character" that has notes on what you did in the Bio & Info tab.  For example, the sheet that holds a bunch of TokenMod and Group Initiative macros as character abilities in my Palladium Fantasy games has this as part of the Bio & Info Notes: Will likely need to delete the initial modifier group using the following command for GroupInit: !group-init --del-group 1 The initiative-mod will need to be added as a group with the following command: !group-init --add-group --bare initiative_mod Then you don't have to struggle to remember what to do when you start a new game months/years in the future.

And send it to me so I can add a new character sheet default. =D
This is the macro I use currently: &{template:default} {{name=@{selected|token_name} Initiative}} {{Initiative=[[ 1d20 + @{selected|DexterityMod} - (@{selected|Size}) &{tracker}]]}}

This should work: !group-init --add-group --bare DexterityMod --negative Size Be sure it's the only Bonus Stat Group.  You can remove the others with the [X] that shows next to them when you create this one.
Thank you very much!
