Character Sheet Macro Problem

February 10 (10 years ago)
Have come across a problem with a campaign I run, and it seems the problem is exclusive to me because last night all my players were rolling up the Shadowrun 5E character sheet macros without issue, but, for me, whilst some of the macros worked consistently, others would allow me to roll them once, and then just outright stop responding to me clicking on them, or just wouldn't respond at all. Was hoping it was just a server issue or something but it's continued through to this morning, so looks like I'm going to need some help to fix this one.

Was this on the dev or main server?

Can you provide a console log while trying the macros again? It might provide some info for people to look at and see what could be happening.

https://wiki.roll20.net/Solving_Technical_Issues provides all the normal steps we usually ak people to go through. Step 4 will tell you how to get the console log if you didn't know how.

This was the log, one of the macros went through three times without issue, then I rolled a different one, it flagged up that 'Uncaught TypeError', and after that the previously working macro didn't work anymore.

Thanks and I'm moving this to the bugs forums because I'm not sure what is going on. Did you also go through the other steps that were listed (steps 1 -3)? This is just to make sure all the bases are covered.
February 10 (10 years ago)
Yeah I've gone through the process, cache is cleared, Chrome is updated, got the same problem with and without my extensions loaded up, and tried testing the macros in Firefox and got the exact same issue.

What type of anti-virus are you running? Some of them are starting to get aggressive on blocking (shot in the dark on that) or they've changed a persons DNS settings. Just trying to run through stuff that I've read from other posts.
February 10 (10 years ago)
AVG, just temporarily disabled it though and sadly still getting the same issue.
February 10 (10 years ago)
Boatman, a few of my players ran into the same issue last night. They had to keep refreshing their session to get the macro working correctly.
February 10 (10 years ago)
Yeah, whenever I refresh the page it'll let me run one of the 'faulty' macros once or twice before it stops working again, it's really odd.

The issue is a character sheet one. The way the button macros are structured requires all the necessary fields to be filled out, or else it will throw that undefined error. That's why it works for your players (they have all the fields filled out) and it doesn't work for you.

For example shooting the 2nd ranged weapon:
/em shoots their @{secondaryweaponname}! AP: [[@{secondaryweaponap}]] || DV: @{secondaryweapondam} || Acc: @{secondaryweaponacc}\n/roll ([[@{secondaryweaponskill}+@{agility}+?{Modifiers?|0}]]-@{woundmod})d6>5s

If you don't have the name of the 2nd weapon, which isn't given a default value, it will throw an undefined error.
February 10 (10 years ago)

Edited February 10 (10 years ago)
Okay, but in that case wouldn't it throw the undefined error every single time I tried to call the button macro? Sometimes the macros actually go through and roll everything correctly, and other times they don't, and it happens on sheets that I know for a fact have rolled consistently, without an issue, in the past, and haven't been altered since. I've come across issues with the macros on this particular Shadowrun sheet not going through because I forgot to fill in a field in the past, but all the fields are filled here, and the macros work, then suddenly stop until I refresh the page / alter one of their fields, only to stop working once again.

I'd love if this was a simple case of me being boneheaded and forgetting to fill out a field, but everything is as it should be, as far as I can see, but it's throwing errors.

Feel free to give me an exact macro button and the inputs you have in them that's causing you this issue and I'll take another look.
February 10 (10 years ago)

Edited February 10 (10 years ago)
The macros that seem to be having the issues are the combined Avoid and Damage Soak macro button in the top right, the macros for the first two rows put under Ranged Weapons, any additional ranged weapons put in seem to work just fine, same for entries under Melee Weapons, any past the first two rows work fine, and finally the same thing with entries under Armor, the first two rows throw the error, anything below the second works fine.

Also playing around with it a bit more I've found what specifically seems to stop things working, if you call one of the macros I've listed above, then click cancel, they will all refuse to work and throw errors if you try to click them from then on, until a field is changed or you refresh the page.

An example list of entries I've got for you -
First row of Ranged Weapons
Weapon Name - Ares Alpha
Acc - 8
DV - 11P
AP - -6
Mode - SA/BF/FA
RC - 5
Ammo - 40
Skill - 11

Also gave a player control of the same sheet and asked them to do the same thing and it seems to result in the same problem for them.

Right, because like I said if all the elements to the macro aren't available, the way these are set up, it will break. When you cancel it's setting the roll request {Modifiers?|0} to null. It's the same issue I described above only with the roll query instead of the name.
February 10 (10 years ago)
Okay so right now I'm playing Dark Heresy, using the DH1 sheets, and me and the other players are having the exact same issue, you click cancel on certain button macros, and they won't work again until you reload the page or enter something into the field, and I'm going to assume this may be affecting other character sheets as well. Again, never had this problem before yesterday, did the way Roll20 handles macros change recently?

I've had same issues with me and my players tonight in a 5e game using the 5e sheet.....something is definitely wrong somewhere -



Same issues as reported previously....opening a character sheet allows the first use of any macro to work.....subsequent clicks causes errors as per above with no content or error listed in chat log. I can reproduce this pretty consistently at the moment

Steps to reproduce using 5e sheet
  1. Open character sheet
  2. Use any number of macros (without changing tabs or otherwise updating any field/attribute) and they work fine.
  3. Make a change to an attribute or click on a sheet tab (essentially just an attribute being updated).
  4. At this point the console log shows the "Cannot read property of replace.." errors and they are repeated in blocks of three for every change/update thats made to the sheet (presumably when the sheet is saving)
  5. Any attempts to use any macro from the sheet at this point triggers the Uncaught TypeError exception at the end of the extract above. No errors anywhere other than console log during any of these steps

Hope this helps track it down!

Looks like the macros function as expected again on the 5e sheet...thanks Steve.

Edit : Ignore the stuff i had in here prior to the edit...it's only on one character and he has played around with the sheet a fair bit so likely has some data in there thats causing some other warnings to be logged to the console. Everything is working fine, nothing to see, move along :)
