[Help] Looking for a script that can turn the turn tracker into the one in Fantasy Grounds

Hello! Looking to see if there's a script or something that'll allow my players to drag-n-drop their attacks onto a token in the turn tracker (or on the map) so the damage is applied automatically, as well as any status effects the action might cause. I have a campaign coming up which will have some pretty large scale battles and this would make going through the turn order easier and quicker for both myself and the players.

There isn't anything so automated in Roll20 and the API has limited access to anything resembling an API. Roll20's game agnostic nature means there isn't unified concept of how a given game is set up, so API scripts tend to be more generalized or focused on a single small operation. Something like what you are describing could be approximated with a system of scripts, but it hasn't been created.

I was told there was such a script in the /r/Roll20 discord. :( Do you have any suggestions for automated scripts to make things a lil easier? I think I'll just use a third-party app for status effects and such. I love both Roll20 and Fantasy Grounds but Roll20 has the option or window pop-outs which I desperately need since I don't have physical books to flip through lol.

You cannot literally create the same sort of interface that Fantasy Grounds has.  You can create similar functionality, and there are scripts that can allow you to set up certain things.  There isn't a one-stop-shop script that will just do what you're looking for, though something very close could be written.

I understand; I'm asking if you have suggestions on any scripts I should use in my campaign. Not specifically on this quesiton since you've already stated it isn't possible with the current API.

Token Action Maker  (One-Click) or  Universal Chat Menus  can make your job a lot easier. The first creates token action buttons for most automated parts of the D&D 5th Edition by Roll20 Sheet. The second allows you to created complicated chat menus that are universal. There are many examples in the thread, particularly these . Token-Mod  (One-Click) allows you to automate almost anything you would do to edit a token.  ChatSetAttr   (One-Click) does the same thing for sheets. GroupInit   (One-Click) allows you to roll initiative for every selected token. CombatMaster   (One-Click) automates a lot of things in combat including condition duration and now spells. GroupCheck ,  (One-Click) and its associate script  Apply Damage  allow you to roll and apply saves and assign damage to every selected token. Finally, these two posts can help you set up any custom automation efficiently: Chat Menu Macro Character Sheet
