Treasure Tables

Is there anyway to have a drop down box macro for rollable tables without API? I am using the treasure tables from 5E A through I and would like to put all that in one macro.
Yup! If your Rollable Tables are named "Treasure-A" through "Treasure-I", you could use a macro like this: /r 1t[Treasure-?{Table|A|B|...|H|I}]
Ok here is what i got so far. It gives the drop box but doesn't roll the table. /w gm &{template:npcaction} {{rname= Magic Table}} /w gm [[ 1t[MagicTable-?{Table|A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I}] ]]
Sorry i forgot to include that the tables are named MagicTableA etc..
That's gonna be your problem then... try changing it to ?{Table|MagicTableA|MagicTableB|MagicTableC|etc...}
Opps! Thanks Phnord!
/w gm &{template:npcaction} {{rname= MagicTable}} /w gm [[ 1t[MagicTable-?{Table|MagicTableA|MagicTableB|MagicTableC|MagicTableD|MagicTableE|MagicTableF|MagicTableG|MagicTableH|MagicTableI}] ]] Okay this is what i got now and nothing is showing in the chat window. ?
No problemo! I've had the same problem. Tables are really fun to use; I have a random insult generator built I call the Insultinator 3000. It's a big hit with the players! I just use three tables: an adjective, a verb, and a noun. It gives a result like this: The macro is simply You are a [[1t[IA][IB][IC]]]! But every time I try to type it out manually, I inevitably type it as 1t[1A], instead of 1t[IA]! Even when I know better! Go fig. Also, if you really like rollable tables and want to expand your abilities, you should consider a Pro Subscription. This will let you use the API, which has a lot of great applications. In particular, there's one by TheAaron (scriptomancer of the finest quality programs) which can allow you to nest your table rolls. For example, you can roll 1t[treasure], which can itself then contain table rolls such as 1t[gems], 1t[jewelry], 1t[weapons], or whatever. It'll then make the rolls on the appropriate table, which can itself then contain more table rolls! I think it can get all Inception on itself by like 8 or more layers! Recursive Tables -Phnord Edit: Just lose the first MagicTable-: /w gm [[ 1t[?{Table|MagicTableA|MagicTableB|MagicTableC|MagicTableD|MagicTableE|MagicTableF|MagicTableG|MagicTableH|MagicTableI}] ]] If that doesn't work, hmm... might have the tables named differently? EditedEdit: This worked for me: [[1t[?{Table|IA|IB|IC}]]] This gave no response: [[1t[Which Table-?{Table|IA|IB|IC}]]]
Thank You that did the trick! I like your insultinator 3000! Very cool.
We need an Insultinator 3000 thread.  Phnord could post his current tables and other posters could suggest additional nouns, adjectives, and adverbs. :) Unfortunately, since it's not directly roll20 related, it would probably get shut down.

Might want to look into having a wiki page created to showcase tables just like there are macro pages.
