Extended Compatability

I suppose what I am asking is that perhaps Roll20 gets in contact with Hero Labs and Trapdoor Technologies to see if Roll20 can be made compatible. I just think it would be awesome if for example we use Hero Labs to make our character sheets, then load them up into Roll20 while having document/reference support from Project Morningstar (from Trapdoor Technologies). By increasing compatibility, efforts can be focused on places where it is needed most for each part of the program. I am not saying that one would HAVE to use or get all three, but I would like it if one COULD use all three with minimal hassle..

Just some thoughts: There are scripts for import from Hero Labs for some sheets. It might make more sense to try and get Hero Labs to support better export formats (which would be required regardless of if Roll20 was integrating with them or API scripters were going to use their output) for the sheets you are interested in. Regarding Trapdoor, the Update of Holding seems to indicate it will have some enhanced documentation/reference support which may obviate the necessity for using an external software package.

In regards to the Update of Holding, while I look forward to it, I cannot help but feel that if Trapdoor and Roll20 were 100% compatible, Trapdoor could focus its time and effort on including reference support for more systems while Roll20 focuses on being used for the TableTop experience.

No argument there! =D
