Recommended/Verified Functional Macros/APIs for Jumpgate

1725075741

Edited 1725133698
Teammates, Haven't seen anyone on the forums address what macros are currently recommended/verified working on Jumpgate for 5E. Figured it would be a good idea to start one. With the help of the hero of the republic Keith, I learned how to start an indexed thread.  Confirmed Functional on Jumpgate DND 5E: TokenMod ChatSetAttr GroupInitiative GroupCheck ApplyDamage ( Thread link and Code link ) Token Action Maker EncounterHelper Dynamic Lighting Tool

Jumpgate is only half the equation. Speaking realistically, D&D 5e still absolutely dominates Roll20 demographics. Many API scripts will likely fail if they attempt to interact with the new Beacon-based sheet*. I think any such list should have a column for Jumpgate and a column for Beacon. From my testing, 95% of scripts should work just fine on Jumpgate, or will just need maintenance to leverage the new abilities Jumpgate will grant. Also, such a thread should probably have a top-post index of the reports made throughout the thread. Is that something you are interested in taking on? Finally, might it be a good idea to do the actually collation in a wiki page? Threads can close or become derailed, or the original poster can leave for some reason. Anyone can edit the wiki, and frankly, it has better presentation tools. Mod creators can also be encouraged to update their script's compliance (Though again, I expect this to be minimal for Jumpgate, but huge for Beacon interaction) *I have no idea what to expect from Demiplane interaction, but my personal prediction is pretty pessimistic.

Those are sound ideas. I may take that on when I return. I will just have to poke around the forum tools to see how to make the index you mentioned and potentially start a wiki. I hope to build a coalition so that should something happen to me, others can continue the work.
