ChatSetAttr and Powercards

This works !setattr --charid @{selected|character_id} --ac|[[13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod}]] --silent But this doesn’t:- !power {{   --name|@{character_name} casts Mage Armour   --leftsub|1st Level Abjuration^^Range: Self   --AC 13 + Dexterity Bonus|@{selected|dexterity_mod} = [[ 13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod} ]]   --soundfx|_audio,play,nomenu|Summoning Chant   --api_setattr| _charid @{selected|character_id} _ac|[[13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod}]] _silent   --api_modattr| _charid @{selected|character_id} _lvl1_slots_expended|-1 _silent   --api_token-mod| _ids @{selected|token_id} _set statusmarkers|magearmour }} What am I doing wrong?

IIRC the "selected" info isnt transferred between the APIs. Check out SelectManager API if it can patch that up.

Thank you for the tip about SelectManager. I don't think what is selected is the problem though. I think the problem is the specific syntax because it does set the attribute but it sets it as $[[1]] instead of the sum of 13 and the dex mod. I have tried some variations with brackets and the best I've managed is "13+2" it doesn't seem to resolve the sum...

  --api_setattr|_charid @{selected|character_id} _ac|[[13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod}]] _silent  remove the space between the  | and the _

Already tried that. Doesn't work unfortunately. I wonder if it's becuase the double square brackets require a dice roll to resolve? I'm going to try: --api_setattr|_charid @{selected|character_id} _ac|[[ 1d0 + 13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod}]] _silent

Nope. That didn't work either. I think setattr wants just a number.

Can you make the thing work without the selected part, instead targeting a name?

This works (apparently only intermittently!) !power {{  --name|@{character_name} casts Mage Armour  --leftsub|1st Level Abjuration^^Range: Self  --AC 13 + Dexterity Bonus|@{selected|dexterity_mod} = [[ 13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod} ]]  --soundfx|_audio,play,nomenu|Summoning Chant  --api_setattr*1|_charid @{selected|character_id} _ac|15 _silent  --api_modattr*2| _charid @{selected|character_id} _lvl1_slots_expended|-1 _silent  --api_token-mod*3|_ids @{selected|token_id} _set statusmarkers|magearmour }} I think the problem is the pipe in @{selected|dexterity_mod} after ac|... Maybe I can set it by use of a string

Like this... !power {{   --name|@{character_name} casts Mage Armour   --leftsub|1st Level Abjuration^^Range: Self   --AC 13 + Dexterity Bonus|@{selected|dexterity_mod} = [[ [$ac] 1d0 + 13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod} ]]   --soundfx|_audio,play,nomenu|Summoning Chant   --api_setattr1|_charid @{selected|character_id} _ac|^ac _silent   --api_modattr2| _charid @{selected|character_id} _lvl1_slots_expended|-1 _silent   --api_token-mod3|_ids @{selected|token_id} _set statusmarkers|magearmour }} Normal 0 false false false EN-GB X-NONE X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;}

Nope :( Oh well. The below works anyway. I just don't understand why I can't get it to work  as part of the powercard. !power {{     --name|@{character_name} casts Mage Armour     --leftsub|1st Level Abjuration^^Range: Self     --AC 13 + Dexterity Bonus|@{selected|dexterity_mod} = [[ [$ac] 1d0 + 13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod} ]]     --soundfx|_audio,play,nomenu|Summoning Chant     --api_modattr| _charid @{selected|character_id} _lvl1_slots_expended|-1 _silent     --api_token-mod|_ids @{selected|token_id} _set statusmarkers|magearmour }} !setattr --charid @{selected|character_id} --ac|[[13 + @{selected|dexterity_mod}]] --silent Normal 0 false false false EN-GB X-NONE X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;}
