Variant Crit rules via API?

Greetings fellow adventurers,&nbsp; I my group uses Variant crit rules (max damage+1die roll) for damage, I was wondering if there was a way to apply that rule globally to all Character and NPC sheets. while searching I found several Topics about this, but the last one is from a couple of years ago. I found a script that the User Oosh&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/users/4775411" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/users/4775411</a> &nbsp;posted there, but it does no longer seem to work as I receive errors on loading it.&nbsp; I know that you can seperatly change the crit roll on the PC character sheet, but this only seems to work for weapon attacks, not spells as the "Crit" field behind "type" is missing. Also there is no way to implement it for my monsters/NPCs. any of you coding wizzards who has a solution here? you have my thanks.

Not sure of the script you are referring to, but does your game happen to be using either Jumpgate or the experimental sandbox? Could be that one of those things is not playing nicely with Oosh's script?
Are you using the D&amp;D 5e 2014 sheet? You can edit the critical damage of spells on that, you'll just have to do it in the attack section, not the spell section. Can't help you with the global stuff, though.
Sorry for the late reply, I was away during the WE. @David M. no I don't use any of these. I tried the script first on a dummy Campaign that I use for testing before applying scripts to my main game. here is the script I meant: <a href="https://github.com/ooshhub/customCrit5e" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/ooshhub/customCrit5e</a> found in this thread: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/9641580/5e-can-i-use-a-variant-rule-for-critical-hit-damage" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/9641580/5e-can-i-use-a-variant-rule-for-critical-hit-damage</a> @Tuo, yes indeed I found that one now too. which at least would get the problem solved for my players and is already worth a lot. although it would be great if it could be set globally and my NPCs/Monsters could benefit from this too.
