Function for removing tokens from the Turn Tracker?

Hey there everyone!

This may seem like an odd question, but is there a function to remove a token from the Turn Order that can be used via macro? Basically the reverse of the &{tracker} command? I'd like to incorporate it into the combat-tracking framework I've setup for my HackMaster campaign.

Thanks!

No. The API can manipulate the turn tracker easily, but you can't do this with a simple macro.

Shucks, I was afraid that would be the answer. Guess I'm gonna be hitting the API books!

Thanks very much Brian!

Something like this should work:

var removeTokenTurn = function(tid) {
  "use strict";

  Campaign().set({
    turnorder: JSON.stringify(
      _.reject(
        ( '' === Campaign.get('turnorder') ? [] : JSON.parse(Campaign().get('turnorder')) ),
        function(to) {
          return to.id === tid;
        }
      )
    )
  });
};

Thanks Aaron! Unfortunately, that's Greek to me... After saving the script to the campaign, how would I go about calling the function in-game?

Ah, it's a function you could call from another script. You could do something like:

on('ready',function(){
    "use strict";

    var removeTokenTurn = function(tid) {
        Campaign().set({
            turnorder: JSON.stringify(
                _.reject(
                    ( '' === Campaign.get('turnorder') ? [] : JSON.parse(Campaign().get('turnorder')) ),
                    function(to) {
                        return to.id === tid;
                    }
                )
            )
        });
    };

    on('chat:message',function(msg){
        var args;

        if (msg.type !== "api" || !playerIsGM(msg.playerid)) {
            return;
        }

        args = msg.content.split(/\s+/);
        switch(args.shift()) {
            case '!noturn':
                _.each(msg.selected,function(s){
                    removeTokenTurn(s._id);
                });
                break;     
        }
    });
});

Then you could select tokens and issue:

!noturn

to remove each selected token from the turn order if it's in there.

Ha!

Well played! Haha!

Ahhhhh, I see! Sorry for the confusion, I should have clarified that I know jack-all about working with the API.

Unfortunately, the !noturn command didn't work, and fed this error to the API Output Console:

/home/symbly/www/d20-api-server/node_modules/firebase/lib/firebase-node.js:1 orts, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { function g(a){throw a;}var j=v ^ TypeError: Object function () { return getObj("campaign", "root"); } has no method 'get' at removeTokenTurn (evalmachine.:1559:39) at evalmachine.:1579:21 at Array.forEach (native) at Function._.each._.forEach (/home/symbly/www/d20-api-server/sandcastle/node_modules/underscore/underscore.js:78:11) at evalmachine.:1578:19 at eval (

This is even more Greek to me!

And again, thank you for taking the time to tinker with this, Aaron! It's much appreciated!

Should be Campaign().get('turnorder') at the start of line 8, just like at the end of line 8.

Hmmm just tried that out Brian, but no change. Still got the same error message.

Ah, nice catch Brian. try this:

on('ready',function(){
    "use strict";

    var removeTokenTurn = function(tid) {
        Campaign().set({
            turnorder: JSON.stringify(
                _.reject(
                    ( '' === Campaign().get('turnorder') ? [] : JSON.parse(Campaign().get('turnorder')) ),
                    function(to) {
                        return to.id === tid;
                    }
                )
            )
        });
    };

    on('chat:message',function(msg){
        var args;

        if (msg.type !== "api" || !playerIsGM(msg.playerid)) {
            return;
        }

        args = msg.content.split(/\s+/);
        switch(args.shift()) {
            case '!noturn':
                _.each(msg.selected,function(s){
                    removeTokenTurn(s._id);
                });
                break;
        }
    });
});

Just tested this and it worked for me.

Perfect, works like a charm! Brian and Aaron, thank you both again so much!

Cheers!
