[Script] TokenMod -- An interface to adjusting properties of a token from a macro or the chat area.

I'm finally getting around to playing with this and I can't seem to get the bar link function working: After selecting the tokens I want to link (they have a character ID assigned already), I ran this !token-mod --set bar1_link|npc-reflex bar2_link|npc-dt bar3_link|HP HP links fine, but I'm wondering if maybe the attributes with the dashes in them just aren't being supported by the API and thus aren't recognized? Also, I wonder if it's because they're values from auto-calculated fields since HP is one that gets filled in. Just don't know enough to understand why it isn't working... BTW . is there a way to get the help box come up in chat that I see in the post before this?

It likely is because they are auto call fields. Mark pointed out how to work around that to me but I need to come back around and test it. Most, if not all of my scripts support the --help parameter to show that box for them: !token-mod --help

Hi Aaron, Can TokenMod jam text into the GM Notes? I don't see it a called out, so I'm guessing this is an enhancement request for your backlog. :) Thanks for this awesome utility! Pat

hmm... Seem to have missed that one... have to think about how I might do that since it's a block of text rather than a single bit of data.

You can copypaste into the pop ups that ask you to input something. Type !token-mod -gmnotepaste then ti could pop up, an idea anyway

Yeah, the Dice Query syntax would need to be handed on the client side, but it's a valid point. I'm thinking more along the lines of multi line support with the {{ }} as well as operations like concatenation with what's already there (append and prepend) and possible find/replace. The uses people put the notes section to are usually different than a simple field, at least for tokens. (Character attributes are a whole other story...)

Most, if not all of my scripts support the --help parameter to show that box for them: !token-mod --help I hope to see support for this soon! I know you're busy though with other things, but being able to use all Attributes just makes sense.

Yeah, I agree. I'll try to look at it very soon. =D

Hi Aaron, The parser doesn't seem to support calls to rollable tables. This works: !token-mod --set name|[[d4!]] This doesn't: !token-mod --set name|[[1t[Chaotic-Features]]] I tried quotes and no quotes. Can't seem to find a combo that works. Any suggestions? Thanks, Pat.

Ah, I bet I know the issue. Should be an easy fix once I've got a bottle in this baby...

Update v0.8.8 -- Added expansion of Rollable Tables. You can now specify rollable tables in places you would use text: !token-mod --set name|"[[ 1t[ClueNames] ]]" Be sure to put " " around the call if you have multi word results. (Thanks Pat!)

Thanks for the quick fix to support Rollable Tables Aaron. Works like a charm. Pat.

No problem! =D

Good day Aaron. Are there any plans to include a toggle for Has Sight / Angle / Multiplier? Is this even accessible to the API? Thanks

Hi Vince, try light_hassight - boolean light_angle or light_losangle - degrees Not sure about the multiplier though... its all in the slightly blurred help section in the OP

I did a search on the thread for "has sight"... foolish me. Thank you Ziechael, I will try that when I get home. Cheers

No problem, i have fallen prey to that exact issue before now myself lol

Thanks for covering for me Z! I was out camping (in 98º weather!?!?!). You can always access a list of options in the help... =D !token-mod --help

98 degrees... that's almost the boiling point of water =O how did you survive!! Also, no problem, it's the least i can do for all the hassle you put up with from me ;)

Sorry, I should have specified 98° F for you internationals... =D

I've been getting an "Unexpected token s" error with this script, mind helping me out Aaron please? x.x

Benson Y. said: I've been getting an "Unexpected token s" error with this script, mind helping me out Aaron please? x.x Is this the only script you are using Benson? Unfortunately, the dreaded "Unexpected token s" error is rampant among nearly all users of the API. Usually you can simply "save" the script and all is well. Some think it may have something to do with how all the scripts are combined when you load the campaign or possibly collateral damage from a security update that still hasn't been traced.

What Vince said. =D

Any info on when light_angle and light_losangle will be able to be set/reset to 360º :) Then this: will be completely functional !!!

oooooooooooooh. That's so much nicer than my DM token full of ability macros.

OOOH! That's spectacular! Will do it tonight!

Vince said: oooooooooooooh. That's so much nicer than my DM token full of ability macros. Right, mine too. Would love that code!

I'm thinking this is all we need to make the cool buttons... <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1708283/#post-17" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1708283/#post-17</a>...

I got my info here. The inspiration for a chat box menu from this&nbsp; video . Also, a LOT of advice in these forums via The Aaron!

I wanted to have buttons that would have a query for filling/updating each one of the three bars/bubbles, but could not get it to work other than when you first initiate the macro. I read that you could do this, but it may be due to me having it in a whispered template.

OldSchoolChris, that's awesome! ^^ I'm a huge fan of macros and playing with the character sheet, I'll come back here and show off what I got in a bit. ^^ Aaron though, is there a command to turn off all status markers on a token?

Yup. Basically, you have to set a single status then remove it: !token-mod --set statusmarkers|=blue|-blue

Sweet, thanks, thought I had to do that. xP Also, this isn't a common request but there's currently no way to modify the GM Notes of a token at this time right? I'm currently using the Way Point Patrolling API (which probably needs an update xP) and it uses the GM Notes to specify speed and the path and other items such as that. If there was a way I could modify that via this or perhaps find a new script for patrolling tokens, that would be awesome as well. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/615410/script-way-point-patrolling" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/615410/script-way-point-patrolling</a>

Thanks for sharing OldSchoolChris. You to Aaron. ;-P

yup. I'll try to get this change out in the morning or early tomorrow. Very, very tired. =/

No problem man, get some sleep. xD Night!

Correct. &nbsp;You'd need an api script to add them in, I believe, but you might be able to type the commands in a URL for a link and get basically the same effect.

Is the command there for inputting to GM Notes? I didn't see it

It is not. &nbsp;Since that tends to be a multiline thing, I had left it off. &nbsp;I can think of a few ways to approach adding it, I'll probably look into doing that as soon as I finish up the CharMod script. &nbsp;I'll likely rewrite TokenMod with some of the things I've developed from CharMod.

Update v0.8.9 -- Added the argument --ignore-selected which allows writing macros that won't change any tokens that happen to be selected. !token-mod --ignore-selected --set statusmarkers|red:3 --ids -Jny0PfbtztLnCQv4M5y This is most useful when you are using hidden tokens as a backing store for state information (time, rounds, money, etc). (Thanks OldSchoolChris!)

No, the @{target} will cause the selected tokens to be ignored. &nbsp;But you can omit the --ids part. !token-mod --set statusmarkers|+?{Status|red|blue|green|brown|purple|pink|yellow|dead|skull|sleepy|half-heart|half-haze|interdiction|snail|lightning-helix|spanner|chained-heart|chemical-bolt|death-zone|drink-me|edge-crack|ninja-mask|stopwatch|fishing-net|overdrive|strong|fist|padlock|three-leaves|fluffy-wing|pummeled|tread|arrowed|aura|back-pain|black-flag|bleeding-eye|bolt-shield|broken-heart|cobweb|broken-shield|flying-flag|radioactive|trophy|broken-skull|frozen-orb|rolling-bomb|white-tower|grab|screaming|grenade|sentry-gun|all-for-one|angel-outfit|archery-target} If you use ! instead of +, you get a dialog that will toggle: !token-mod --set statusmarkers| ! ?{Status|red|blue|green|brown|purple|pink|yellow|dead|skull|sleepy|half-heart|half-haze|interdiction|snail|lightning-helix|spanner|chained-heart|chemical-bolt|death-zone|drink-me|edge-crack|ninja-mask|stopwatch|fishing-net|overdrive|strong|fist|padlock|three-leaves|fluffy-wing|pummeled|tread|arrowed|aura|back-pain|black-flag|bleeding-eye|bolt-shield|broken-heart|cobweb|broken-shield|flying-flag|radioactive|trophy|broken-skull|frozen-orb|rolling-bomb|white-tower|grab|screaming|grenade|sentry-gun|all-for-one|angel-outfit|archery-target}

Gives me a great idea for some easily applicable settings for my players, coupled with OldSchoolChris' API button menu this is certainly going to reduce my day-job output for today ;)
