D&D 5E (2024) Character Sheet & Builder by Roll20

Antonio S. said: I'm having trouble with customizations in the 20204 sheet. For starters, the traits, resources and actions added from the custom subclass don't appear on the sheet. I have seen them once, but I can not make them appear again. Also, adding a bonus to rolls that have a specific condition (using the query modal) would benefit from selecting PB as the bonus, or having doubling proficiency as a possible choice with query. As it is now, those are part of separate adds to the trait. I also added one that I then removed, as it wasn't what I intended, but it keeps appearing on the query no matter what I do. I removed it already, so it's not like I can do anything else about it. But by far the most annoying is the custom traits not appearing on the sheet. It makes the 2024 sheet unusable for me for the time being. I would appreciate any help with this. Thanks! Edit: I found that rebuilding the character from the level up menu sometimes makes the traits appear again. Can you submit a Help Center ticket with a link to your game? Traits not appearing from custom subclass isn't something we've encountered before. Hultz (Keeper of Secrets) said: For me the most annoying problem I have with the 2024 sheet is some of the MOD Scripts that I use with the 2014 sheet don't work. The game stopper for me is the script EasyExperience which needs to access the Experience attribute and change it.  Thanks for the specific script callout! This attribute is editable, so the script itself just needs to be updated. Knowing this one in particular is desired is a good path to getting it done. Are there any other specific scripts that you miss?

Antonio S. said: Nicole B. said: Can you submit a Help Center ticket with a link to your game? Traits not appearing from custom subclass isn't something we've encountered before. Just did! I also managed to take screenshots of both cases. Thanks for your help. I would also like to know if there's a way to link resources from different traits. For example, the channel divinity resource for a base subclass is linked so that if you expend the resource on either the general channel divinity or your subclass specific channel divinity, both change together. Can one do that manually, so that you assign a single resource to different traits? Yes! The modifier builder should offer either "New Resource" or "Link Resource". If you choose the link option, you can choose from existing resources created elsewhere and then they will stay in sync. Michael P. said: Ability Checks and Saving Throws on the token action bar popup with the correct prompts, but the rolls never make it to the chat. Is there a workaround to make this work? Does anyone know if it's a bug that's on the roadmap to be fixed? I haven't been able to reproduce this myself, so it hasn't been on the roadmap - maybe there's something specific about your game that's triggering it? Does it happen all the time, or does it go away if you refresh? Andrea L. said: Hi a few requests: can we also have a "send to token" action for initiative? Yes, just where that button will live will take some thought. can the subrace of elves and halflings be automatically added by the builder in the subspecies space in the main name area? I don't think those are subspecies, technically, so we don't give them the "subspecies" tag for 2024. Feedback noted but it would have to be a pretty strong argument for us to to make that call to call it something it's not called anymore. More likely we would show it in addition to the subspecies field. same for subclass: when the monk, as an example, follows the open hand, show it after monk under the name as a subclass I do see this showing up as intended, in the Subclass field of the sheet. and it would be crazy useful if one of the bars/circles over a token could be set to the character main resource (sorcery points, ki points, bardic inspirations, battle master maneuvers, channel divinity....). I understand it could be difficult for the machine to decide what is the main but maybe add the main resource as a selectable in the choose list for the bar and in the sheet give us a checkbox that says "this is this character's main resource" to all features and traits that have a value Yeah this one is tough but better resource consolidation/management is on our mind because we've gotten a lot of feedback on it. a note on a strange behaviour. not really a bug as I sort of misused the builder. one new character was built taking just the initial money for both class and background. that was a mistake but going back in the builder did not give possibility to change (and it makes sense as something could have happened on the sheet with that money). as the character was new I tried a brutal move: remove class. I got a message well done Are you sure you want to remove this class? Once you do this, all current options related to it will also be removed from your character. This cannot be undone.  By deleting this you will also lose:  1 level 1 proficiency choice Starting equipment 2 spell choices A smaller choice within a feature or a feat The above list is non-exhaustive, you may lose other choices you've made along the way.  and this happened as expected  what I did not expect was all abilities were reset to 10 ! that is a strange number we've built the characters using manual so everything started at 8 and 10 is unexpected. as said more of a curiosity than an issue but wanted to share. thanks Andrea Yeah, the equipment slide is a level-one-only thing, at least at this point. There are some improvements that we want to do to that slide, including this, but I'm not sure when it will be prioritized. As far as ability scores, they are stored under the class, so they do get wiped out on removal. I'm going to see if we can at least add it to the warning message. Mastra said: Would it be possible to get Heroic Inspiration as a binary Attribute on the 2024 character sheet? It's clear enough when a character has it when you're looking at the sheet but it would be nice to link it to token bubbles so players can both remember they have it and possibly see that their allies have it available/already. Yes! We'll be working on this ASAP.

DM Sunshard said: Aloha! Sorry if this has been posted before. I'm having an issue with modifying items, either existing or created. Any changes I make to them just don't save. For example, An item to add more attunement slots. I'll click on advanced, then under 'Basic Item Modifiers' I'll add 'Attunement Slot Override' then put 5. Then after 'Applying' the change and saving the item, nothing changes. It's like this for existing items too. For example, taking off the attunement property to an item. Then saving the item. The item still requires attunement. Hey DM Sunshard! Yep, this was a bug introduced in a recent patch, preventing new modifiers being saved onto items. I've identified the issue and the fix should be live in 5 minutes or so.  The problem with deleting the attunement property is another issue, likely related.  I've raised a ticket to investigate. Thanks for the report & detailed repro steps!

Antonio S. said: Nicole B. said: Yes! The modifier builder should offer either "New Resource" or "Link Resource". If you choose the link option, you can choose from existing resources created elsewhere and then they will stay in sync. Thanks for the reply! But I can't find anything similar to "Link Resource", it's not among the available options. Just checked, sorry, it's "Existing Resource", not "Link Resource". Rick I. said: FOUND A BUG!.. While using the Char-Builder on the DnD24.. creating a Sorcerer, leveled up to 3 ..  the Builder asks for you the choose 2 Meta Magics.. in pull down menues.. There are no options there to select! This commonly means there's an issue with accessing the compendium using your credentials, can you try logging out and back in?

Adam Caramon said: I tried asking for this feature in the Mods area but did not get any on-topic responses.  Is there anyway (either current or planned) for a player to make a roll that they do not see and only the DM sees?  I previously used a script for this functionality when playing with the 2014 sheet, but the script does not work for the 2024 sheet.  There has also been a request for Blindchecks in the Suggestions forum that is nearly 10 years old, so there is definitely a demand for the feature. Use cases: Players making  checks such as Perception or Insight have a REALLY difficult time trusting what the DM tells them if they can see that they rolled poorly.  That defeats the entire purpose of calling for these skill checks. To get ahead of the folks that will say, "Just have the DM make that roll for them", that solution can work in a pinch with the right group, but it takes ownership of the result away from the player.  Some of them won't feel like the result is valid since they did not roll it and it was instead rolled for them. -Adam Beacon actually supports this for the pathfinder "secret roll" concept, but we haven't hooked into it on the sheet. We don't have any immediate plans for it, but it's definitely possible within the architecture so I'll look into how we can implement this UX-wise.

Chris said: One of my players is playing a 2024 Life Cleric and I'm trying to get their heals to work.  This was basic on the 2014 sheet but I keep running into a wall with the new sheet.  When I edit the spells, there are two Upcasting Data fields that should let me do exactly what I'm trying to do.  Unfortunately, the fields are not editable no matter what I try.  What am I missing? You're the first person to ask about the new upcasting fields - these were added just last week and will be editable very soon! The work to unlock them for editing is in code review now. So the answer to this is to please be patient just a bit longer 🙏

Antonio S. said: Nicole B. said: Just checked, sorry, it's "Existing Resource", not "Link Resource". I appreciate it, but the only modifier present with "Resource" in it is "New Resource". It might not be available to users. Oh, I've figured out the disconnect here! The parts of the modifier builder that rely on things on the sheet to "already exist" don't exist when you're using it within the builder itself. This is because your sheet doesn't exist at all until you click build, it's just an amorphous blob of infinitely changeable decisions and that resource hasn't been actually created. This option exists once the sheet is built - you can use the same modifier builder on the feature on the sheet itself, with a few extra options like Existing Resource.

Der Arkanier said: Hi Team, my warlock has 6 pact slots on warlock level 6. 2 lv1, 2 lv2, 2 lv3. He should have only 2 lv3 pact slots. Thanks for looking into this!   Sorry about that, we have seen and worked on issues with warlock spell slots duplicating but thought we had this one squashed. While we work on it, you could work around it by adding a negative number of spell slots in the spell settings modal (cogwheel on the spell slot tab) for your warlock and it should remove the unnecessary ones.
