Join as a player button.

I was just curious if there was a way to see when a player that has GM rights has re-joined as a player. We run multiple campaigns on one roll20 link and have 3 players that GM their own campaign and then play the others.

If the campaign creator is a mentor then there is an api script (I think) that should whisper to the GM that names a person entering the game room. If not a script made, the campaign creator can always post a polite request about having one made if they don't have the knowledge.

So, speaking for the API side of things: Currently, the API cannot tell if a player is logged in as a GM or not. However, in Dev there is a function, playerIsGM(), which correctly reports if a player is currently a GM. Once that is on prod, we'll be able to write a script such as Pat describes. In the interim, and without API access, you can look at the players name in chat. If they speak as themselves and they have (GM) after their name, they are not logged in as a player. Note that that is ONLY when they are talking in chat.
Ok thanks guys I appreciate it the responses.
