How do you format the output of rollable tables

August 27 (2 years ago)

Edited August 27 (2 years ago)

I have created some random encounter tables using the rollable tables function. When I use them, I get an output like this:

I don't know what the "=0" is supposed to mean. And ideally I would like the output to be just the result, in this case "Nothing happens". How can you format the output of rollable tables?

I make a macro including a template which then calls the table... Let me switch to my laptop and I'll give you an example.

EDiT:

Here's my "RET:Road" macro:

/w gm &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Encounter: Road}} {{description=[[1t[RET-Road]]]}}

If you change the name of my encounter table with yours, it should give you an idea what the output looks like with the npcaction template.

Other templates also works great, just depends on what you want the output to look like really ;oP

Here's an URL you might want to have a look at, if you want to know more:

It's important to note that the npcaction template may only apply to the character sheet Neo is using.  If you want one that will work regardless of character sheet, you can use &{template:default}

Thank you, @Neo, that was exactly what I was looking for!
