I tested a Dragon breath weapon - recharge 5-6

1. When I am using the Targets Name and Targets AC options the dragon breath weapon also asks for a target even though it is not versus AC but a save.  I can only select one target.  I can work with this, but wondered if there was anything I was missing
2. The number of uses is updated - great :) but how do I reset the uses - is it manually via edit sheet [which seems clumsy compared to how everything else works] or am I misisng something?

1. Target is always used for attacks and saving throws if you have the Target Name option. There is no way to disginguish between a single target save or multiple target and this case is really only where it applies.
2. Lucian and I talked about some kind of tie-in with the initiative tracker to roll the roll at the start of the character's turn. I'm unsure if he used that method or some other method. Best wait to see how he responds.

I've noticed that the examples I found so far do not have Attack ticked, so have raised a suggestion:-  https://github.com/symposion/roll20-shaped-scripts...

Hopefully this is simple enough to be done, unless the community feel it is a move in the wrong direction...

Kryx said:

You have misunderstood. Target name uses target for all attacks and saving throws. Always. Saving throws often have targets and often don't.

You're welcome to open a suggestion on my issue tracker, but I'm not very keen on the user manually identifying the type of saving throw or trying to parse it somehow all for a niche setting that very few people use.

On (2) I do have the skeleton of something in place that allows you to do this, but I need to flesh it out. You can currently do !shaped-rest --type turn with a token selected, or add --character @{CHARACTER_NAME|character_id} if you want to do it in a macro (replace CHARACTER_NAME with the character name, obviously). This will recharge X/Turn powers, and currently will also reset all Recharge 5-6-type powers as well. I need to modify it to actually make the roll for each power and only recharge if that roll is high enough. I can do that today probably.

Separately to that, I discussed with Kryx the idea of triggering this 'turn recharge' automatically when each character come to the head of the turn tracker. The problem with doing this is that it won't work straightforwardly if you are using API scripts like TurnMarker or TrackerJacker to work with the turn order; scripts don't get notifications of changes to the turn order if those changes are made by other scripts. Aaron has included a listener thing in TurnMarker that I could hook into to get notifications, but if people use other Turn tracking script then this functionality won't work. I'll do what I can but it will have to come with a warning...

Would not putting it in token actions make more sense? If you can write the code, and add it as a token action that would be great...

Would be fairly easy I would think ... to then provide example script text to include any available triggers to avoid having to do it manually at the start of each turn...

Not sure if reactions are tracked, but could be included here as well. On further thought this might not work well, if you have creatures like Orcs with many tokens per char sheet - having to create a seperate character sheet for every dragon is sensible I think, but not for orcs, lol.

Salicar said:

You can make a macro show to all player and put this into the Text slot.
!shaped-rest --type ?{Rest type|Short,short|Long,long}
Should work for all players and npcs.

No worries, your script though looks very useful.  Added it to my game, and trying to work out why my hin sherrif's deputy has no attacks when he clearly should!

Mark W. said:

There's a lot of capability built into this script.  I'm only just now scratching the surface.  Cheers!

Lucian said:

A possible alternative would be to have a script that automatically created duplicate characters whenever you dragged a mook character to the tabletop, but this would rapidly get extremely confusing and would also result in bloated, slow campaigns.

Remember attacks != actions. NPCs don't have attacks, they have actions.

I'm not 100% sure I've understood what you mean by all of this.  I can certainly add a turn recharge token action to !shaped-abilities and the default token action options for new character, that just runs !shaped-rest --type turn.

If I was to ask for a way to handle this it would be to add Status Markers to the token from the script. 

1. This is all very well, but it doesn't help the sheet behave differently because it doesn't have access to any information about the token. If you mark a monster as having disadvantage using a status marker, none of the sheet rolls will respect that until you change it on the sheet... which then changes it for every instance of that monster. You can give yourself reminders/prompts using status markers, but it's really very far from a proper solution. This is only going to get worse as the sheet gets more intelligent. If and when, e.g. the sheet implements conditions such that applying a condition actually modifies things like speed, disadvantage on certain rolls etc, this is going to be pretty useless for monsters. 
2. Aaron's TokenMod script (available through 1-click) is your friend

Jim W. said:

Will this eventually roll for recharge?  If so then bril - I was thinking they were different to rests but I guess handling them as rests makes sense from a logical point of view if not "thematically".

Thorsten B. said:

I'm in the same boat with 7.0.0 not functioning.

Script 7.0.0, sheet 10.0.1
Upon API startup, I I get the error reported previously in this thread about imgsrc needing to be in my library.
Configuration version is detected as 4

Entering the game and trying !shaped-config, I get:

"5eShapedCompanion 1488291240298 ERROR : Error: Error: Unrecognised command !shaped-config"

Same for rests.

I'm unsure where I'd be presented with an upgrade option (config version 4.1?), I haven't seen one in an obvious place.

Hi Thorsten,

Are you the GM of the game?

That's the idea, was going to try and implement later today. Yeah, lumping them with rests is slightly lazy but it makes sense for my code because they do the same thing basically. I'll make an alias called !shaped-recharge to make it clearer to people.

Thorsten B. said:

I am the GM, I left the game, restarted the sandbox, entered the game. No message in chat that I can see.
Is there an interaction where the game has to be open while changing the API? I'll give that a try.

And that worked. So the issue was that I didn't see the chat notice when the API was updated while the game was shut down (no one in it, neither player nor GM), even after re-entering the game.ou use an image that is in your Roll20 Library. See the API documentation for more info."

Jim W. said:

Oddly different to my experience.  I always update with game closed, and [hopefully] no one in it.  The message came up when I entered the game - although it was very quckly after I had made the changes... in another tab.  Using Firefox not sure if that makes any difference.

In my case it was the same tab, and Chrome in Incognito Mode (because Lastpass). It could be there's a race condition here somewhere.

Damage Resistance psychic Condition Immunities charmed, frightened Senses passive Perception 16
Languages Common Challenge 10 (5,900 XP)
Darkness Breeds Darkness. Omou has advantage on ability checks and attack rolls against characters with the Touched by the Mists story award. Similarly, such characters have disadvantage on any saving throw made against Omou.
Innate Spellcasting (Psionics). Omou's spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 15, +7 to hit with spell attacks). He can innately cast the following spells, requiring no components:
At will: mage hand (the hand is invisible)
3/day each: featherfall, jump, see invisibility, shield
1/day each: phantasmal killer, plane shift
Legendary
Resistance (3/day). If Omou fails a saving throw, he succeeds on it instead. Mimicry. The mongrelfolk can mimic any sounds it has heard, including voices. A creature that hears the sounds can tell they are imitations with a successful DC 12 Wisdom (Insight) check.
Obsessive Punishment. If Omou deals damage to a target with the Touched by the Mists story award, Omou deals an additional 1d6 damage for each dark gift the character possesses, to a maximum of 4d6 additional damage.
Probing Telepathy. If a creature communicates telepathically with Omou, he learns the creature's greatest desires if he can see the creature. If the target has the Touched by the Mists story award, Omou learns them without the need to communicate telepathically.
Psychic Defense. While Omou is wearing no armor and wielding no shield, its AC includes its Wisdom modifier.
Standing Leap. The mongrelfolk's long jump is up to 20 feet and its high jump is up to 10 feet, with or without a running start.
Actions
Multiattack. Omou makes three melee attacks.
Unarmed Strike. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (fists, beak, or claws) plus 13 (3d8) psychic damage. This is a magic weapon attack.
Telekinetic Ray. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or Omou moves it up to 30 feet in any direction. It is restrained by the ray's telekinetic grip until the start of Omou's next turn or until Omou is incapacitated. If the target is an object weighing 300 pounds or less that isn't being worn or carried, it is moved up to 30 feet in any direction. Omou can also exert fine control on objects with this ray, such as manipulating a simple tool or opening a door or a container.
Mind Blast (Recharge 5-6). Omou magically emits psychic energy in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 15 Intelligence saving throw or take 22 (4d8 + 4) psychic damage and be stunned for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Legendary Actions.
Omou can take 3 Legendary Actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time, and only at the end of another creature's turn. Omou regains spent Legendary Actions at the start of her turn. Omou can't use the same legendary action twice in consecutive rounds.
Keen Eyes. Omou makes a Wisdom (Perception) check.
Punishing Dash. Omou moves his speed and makes an unarmed strike. This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks.
Endless Battery (Costs 2 actions). Omou makes an unarmed strike against every creature within 5 feet of him.
Psychic Drain (Costs 3 actions). Any creature stunned by Omou's mind blast takes 10 (3d6) psychic damage. Omou regains hit points equal to the damage the creatures take.
Lair Actions.
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Omou takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; Omou can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:
All of the paintings in the room shriek in anger. Any creature except Omou that can hear the paintings must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened.
Part of the ceiling collapses above one creature that Omou can see within 120 feet of him. The creature must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 10 (3d6) bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone and buried. The buried target is restrained and unable to breathe or stand up. A creature can take an action to make a DC 10 Strength check, ending the buried state on a success.
A strong wind emanates from the huge carving of Esmae and blows around Omou. Each creature within 60 feet of Omou must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be pushed 15 feet away from Omou and knocked prone. Gases and vapors are dispersed by the wind, and unprotected flames are extinguished. Protected flames, such as lanterns, have a 50 percent chance of being extinguished.

@Alexander You're very close :-) Remove the periods after the titles and then put an asterisk and a space in front of each lair action and it will work.

I was playing with this as I have never tried this before, getting to where Alexander had got when you posted.  I did the fixes you suggest above and get:-

Field legendaryActions should have appeared 1 more times

So I added one more * and space and the text none - same error.

Lucian said:

I have a question about how people use the sheet output options.

1. Results of GM-only script commands, like !shaped-import-monster. Any output is whispered to the GM
2. Results of commands not-limited to GM, such as !shaped-rest or !shaped-import-spell. Currently, these are whispered to the player that issued them. In the case of !shaped-rest, it could be argued that they should also be shown to the GM.
3. Unprompted script messages - startup errors etc. These are always whispered to GM.
4. Messages that result from changes to attributes/tokens. Currently these are the advantage tracker announcing changes to Roll settings - which has it's own settings in !shaped-config and can either announce publicly or just to the GM; and the HP roller, which always whispers to GM
5. Messages that result from actions taken in response to roll template output from the sheet. When you cast a spell, roll a death save, roll HD, use a trait, etc, etc, the script reads the chat message that results from this, and takes some action, like decrementing spell slots. Sometimes, the script needs to output a message as a result, such as telling you you have no spell slots left.  At the moment, the script checks to see if the original message that triggered it was a whisper (which will be determined by sheet settings). If it was, then the script whispers any messages it might have to the player who did the original roll; otherwise it sends messages publicly. 

7.1.0 (2017-03-01)

Bug Fixes

• config: All commands warn when config is not upgraded (27384c1), closes #370
• import: Ensure saves/skills always include PB (8e53615), closes #366
• output: Ensure GM sees whispered output as well (85009cb)

Features

• output: Whisper results if original command/trigger was whispered (12eb86c), closes #367
• rests: Implement recharge 5-6 style recharges (46bb64b), closes #374

Lucian said:

@Jim W. Turn-based recharge should now work. This feature is quite fragile and potentially relies on interactions with other scripts, so I'd expect there to be problems with it initially.
