[Script] PowerCards 3 (Thread 5)

Hi guys, having a problem with the macro below.  When a character roll a 20 I get the output of both Failure and Critical Success - can somebody help me and tell me what's wrong? !power {{ --emote|@{target|token_name} tries to break down a door. --tokenid|@{target|token_id} --format|atwill --hroll|[[ [$Atk] ?{Tools?| No, 1d20+@{target|strength_mod} | Crowbar, 2d20KH1+@{target|strength_mod} | Portable Ram (alone), 1d20+@{target|strength_mod}+4 | Portable Ram (with aid), 2d20KH1+@{target|strength_mod}+4  } ]] --?? $Atk.base == 1 OR $Atk.total < [[@{selected|bar1|Max}+5]]?? !Failure:|$$#ff0000|**Door remain closed**$$  --?? $Atk.total >= [[@{selected|bar1|Max}+5]] AND $Atk.base > 1 AND $Atk.base < 20 ?? !Success:|**Door is opened!** --?? $Atk.base == 20 ?? !Critical Success:|**You manage to open the door without destroying it!** --DC to notice break-in?|**[[ {[[ [NH] 1d20+@{target|stealth_bonus}-5]],[[5]]}kh1 ]]** }}

Ravenknight said: Hi guys, having a problem with the macro below.  When a character roll a 20 I get the output of both Failure and Critical Success - can somebody help me and tell me what's wrong? I tried this out by creating an NPC with a +4 strength bonus and setting the @{selected|bar1|max} value to anything above 19. It is happening because the conditionals for both the failure and the critical success are true. If a character with a +4 strength bonus rolls a 20 on a 1d20, the result is 24. Taking the first line: --?? $Atk.base == 1 OR $Atk.total < [[@{selected|bar1|Max}+5]]?? !Failure:|$$#ff0000|**Door remain closed**$$ The base is 20, so it isn't 1. The total is 24, which IS less than 25, so the failure line is displayed. Then the critical line comes along, and the base is 20, so it gets displayed as well... essentially both conditions are true, so both lines get displayed. I would suggest the following: --?? $Atk.base == 1 ?? !Critical Failure:|$$#ff0000|**Door remain closed**$$ --?? $Atk.base <> 1 AND $Atk.base <> 20 AND $Atk.total < [[@{selected|bar1|Max}+5]] ?? !Failure:|$$#ff0000|**Door remain closed**$$ --?? $Atk.total >= [[@{selected|bar1|Max}+5]] AND $Atk.base > 1 AND $Atk.base < 20 ?? !Success:|**Door is opened!** --?? $Atk.base == 20 ?? !Critical Success:|**You manage to open the door without destroying it!** By splitting the case where the player rolls a 1 onto its own line, we can use all AND conditions in the failure check to make sure we don't display it if a 20 is rolled as well.
Thanks Kurt! I really appreciate it. I knew it was something obvious but I just couldn't see it. :D

Version 3.7.6 is now up on OneClick Install. I've updated the Wiki to reflect updates since 3.7.2. I'm planning on spending some time revising the Wiki page, especially if I can figure out how to get authorized to upload images.

Hi All, like most people here I'm beating my head against a wall with something I thought was simple but is now destroying my will to live. I've got this guy: !power {{ --name|Test --Total:|[[ [$PC] 1d20 - [$NPC] 1d20 ]] --PC:|[^PC] --NPC:|[^NPC] }} I want to see what each roll did.&nbsp; But all I can get out of it is the "Total" reported against all three tags: Is it no longer possible to create multiple rollIDs within the same inline roll? Or was it never possible?&nbsp; Or am I just overlooking something extremely basic?&nbsp; Thanks. Byron.

So I did a little playing around, and this actually DOES work... it is just a little non-intuitive :) You need to use: !power {{ --name|Test --Total:|[[ [$PC] 1d20 - [$NPC] 1d20 ]] --PC:|[^PC.base] --NPC:|[^NPC.base] }} It turns out that the script does correctly store the base value for each defined RollID, but the total for the roll takes the rest of the roll into account. The total is also the value that is displayed if you don't specify anything else. You can use .base in conditionals as well.

Justin A. said: Kurt,&nbsp; First of all awesome script! I have just started to use it.&nbsp; Question, you have the ability to change the format of the cards using a template on a handout. Would it be possible for future release to incorporate handouts for some NPC information versus having to build your NPC's in the character sheets first? Often we simply need base information: Name HP Stats Abilities If these could be read from a handout, we could use that as a "standing variable" card for information. We could even then extend it further for information that can be used in other scenarios. For example, right now in macro we cant have a variable that is in a static place unless it is on a character sheet. So we have to query the user every time they fire off the macro. If we could read a handout and have variables on it, "var1, var2, var3," etc that is static, we now have a place where we can update that data versus having to write it into our macros and then adjust every macro versus one location. --J NOTE: This is early info about a planned upcoming feature. It isn't available anywhere yet, but if you have suggestions or comments, please share them. Justin, &nbsp; I haven't forgotten this! :) and I'm happy to say that I have a basic system in place in my own version of the script that is actually working pretty well. (I know you were also looking for the other-way-around of what I have here (a handout with names and replacement variables)... that is in the works as well, and I'm using templates in this direction to work out the kinks so I can add the replacements as well). Here is what I've got right now: &nbsp;&nbsp; You can create a handout called "PowerCard Templates" that follows the same structure as the PowerCard Formats handout, but the Templates handout can use pretty much any tag available. It also has replacement variables (up to 10 of them per template right now). An example is probably best : (Ignore the first two templates... they were just the really early testing :)) Parameters are indicated by a ~ followed by a digit from 0-9. When calling the template, simply add a | and a list of parameters separated by semicolons (;) and they will be automatically numbered and slotted in to replace the text in the template. With that test templates handout, I can make the following PowerCard macros: !power {{ &nbsp; --template|character|@{selected|character_name};@{selected|character_id} }} Which will display: In this case, there are two parameters for the template: ~0 which is used for the Name tag, and ~1 which is used as the Character ID for everything that requires that. For an example with multiple parameters: !power {{ &nbsp;&nbsp; --template|weapon|Longsword;Melee Attack; 5 ft. Reach;2d20kh1;@{target|AC};1d8+@{selected|strength_mod} }} which gives me: This one has five parameters, and pretty much defines a whole card display. Other tags can be used of course (but template has to be the first one): !power {{ &nbsp; --template|weapon|Longsword;Melee Attack; 5 ft. Reach;2d20kh1;@{target|AC};1d8+@{selected|strength_mod} &nbsp; --format|Kara &nbsp; --tokenid|@{selected|token_id} &nbsp; --emote|@{selected|character_name} Attacks! &nbsp; --target_list|@{target|token_id} }} Still lots of testing to do (I just wrote this code in the last hour or so and haven't put it through its paces yet) but so far very promising.

NOTE: This version is now up on the development GIST. It is working for me, but as it is very new there are likely to be some cases where weird things will happen. Please let me know if you encounter anything strange when using these new tags. Also, the examples below just scratch the surface of what is possible with the --template and --replacement tags, especially when used in combination. I'll probably end up making another youtube video on these options at some point when I'm confident the code is generally sound. 2018-06-18 Version 3.7.7 - Now supporting templates and replacement values! This is a pretty major update, and will stay on the development GIST for a while before moving to One-Click. PowerCards now supports two new reserved tags: &nbsp; --template : Imports the tags defined in a handout called "PowerCard Templates". Templates are named sets of tags that can include parameters that get passed in by the content of the --template tag when the PowerCard is evaluated. The format for the Templates handout is similar to the PowerCard Formats handout: One line per template (they can wrap around as much as you like, but lines are ended with a carriage return). Templates start with a name, followed by a colon. Then a list of tags denoted by the standard -- prefix. A template can allow for value substitution by including ~#! in the line, where # is a parameter number starting at 0 (so, ~0! is the first parameter, ~1! is the second, and so on). &nbsp; When a template tag is used in a PowerCard macro, it is in the format: &nbsp; --template|TemplateName|Parameter0;Parameter1;Parameter2 &nbsp; @{} notation (like @{selected|character_name}, etc) is supported when calling the template, but not within the template itself (the API doesn't have the necessary information to deal with that notation as it is done by the chat server, which just passes IDs). &nbsp; The position of the template tag in the PowerCard is preserved, so other lines can appear before or after it. &nbsp; --replacement : Basically the opposite of templates. Another new handout called "PowerCard Replacements" can define replacement sets by name, followed by a colon, followed by a list of replacement keys and values. Key/Value pairs are separated from each other with semicolons, and keys and values themselves are separated by vertical bars (|). &nbsp; A replacement tag will look at all of the other tags in the PowerCard and replace the keys with the given values. Keys in a PowerCard are denoted with ~keyname$ notation (start with a ~ and end with a $). &nbsp; Both --template and --replacement can be used multiple times with the "Same Tag" modifier (--template*1, --template*2, etc). They can also be used together. All --template lines are processed first, then all --replacement lines, so values passed in as parameters to templates could be specified by replacement entries. &nbsp; Multiple uses of the replacement tag are cumulative, with earliest definition of a replacement key being the one that will get used. &nbsp; Note on Inline Rolls : Inline rolls are processed by the chat server before being sent to PowerCards, but PowerCards will reparse inline rolls if they are added to the card after the initial chat server processing. For this reason, inline rolls work normally in templates (since PowerCards itself is adding them to the card), but not in replacements directly. It IS possible to define replacements that substitute in [[ and ]] so rolls can be generated by replacements. &nbsp; Time for some examples. All of these will use the following templates handout: weapon:--name|~0! --leftsub|~1! --rightsub|~2! --Attack:|[[ [$Atk] ~3! ]] vs AC ~4! --Damage|[[ [$Dmg] ~5! ]] character:--name|~0! --attribute_summary|~1! --ogl_pc_attack_list|~1! --spell_slots|~1! --spell_list|~1! description:--!desc|~0! &nbsp; And the following replacements handout: Kara:Name|Kara;Weapon|Shillelagh;DType|bludgeoning;DamageDie|1d8;CritDie|2d8 Skeleton:M_Name|Skeleton;M_AC|12;M_HP|12;C_HP|12 RollVars:RB|[[;RE|]] This card: !power {{ --template*1|weapon|Longsword;Melee Attack; 5 ft. Reach;2d20kh1;@{target|AC};1d8+@{selected|strength_mod} }} Will use the "weapon" template, passing in "Longsword" for parameter ~0!, "Melee Attack" for parameter ~1!, etc. The output is: We can combine templates and replacement values as well: !power {{ --replacement|Kara --template*1|weapon|~Name$ attacks with ~Weapon$;Melee Attack; 5 ft. Reach;2d20kh1;@{target|AC};~DamageDie$ + @{selected|strength_mod} }} which gives: Here is a card that includes conditional hit or miss logic: !power {{ --replacement*1|Kara --replacement*2|Skeleton --replacement*3|RollVars --name|~Name$ attacks ~M_Name$ --Attack|~Name$ attacks ~M_Name$ with ~Weapon$ [[ [$Atk] 1d20 + @{selected|strength_mod} [Strength] + @{selected|pb} [Proficiency] ]] vs AC ~M_AC$ --hroll|~RB$ [$Dmg] ~DamageDie$ ~RE$, ~RB$ [$Crit] ~CritDie$ ~RE$ --?? $Atk &lt; ~M_AC$ ??Miss|The attack missed! --?? $Atk &gt;= ~M_AC$ AND $Atk.base &lt;&gt; 20 ??Hit|~Name$ deals [^Dmg] ~DType$ damage to ~M_Name$. --?? $Atk.base == 20 ??Critical Hit|~Name$ deals [^Crit] ~DType$ damage to ~M_Name$. }} which, as you would expect produces something like: One important thing to see here is how the ~RB$ and ~RE$ replacements are used to generate [[ and ]] so that we can create an inline roll that uses a replacement variable inside it. If we tried to just use [[ and ]] in the PowerCard macro, the chat server would throw an error because it doesn't know what ~DamageDie$ is. Going a bit further, if we add the following to the templates handout: AttackConds:--?? $Atk &lt; ~M_AC$ ??Miss|The attack missed! --?? $Atk &gt;= ~M_AC$ AND $Atk.base &lt;&gt; 20 ??Hit|~Name$ deals [^Dmg] ~DType$ damage to ~M_Name$. --?? $Atk.base == 20 ??Critical Hit|~Name$ deals [^Crit] ~DType$ damage to ~M_Name$. We can use that template instead of the three conditional lines: !power {{ --replacement*1|Kara --replacement*2|Skeleton --replacement*3|RollVars --name|~Name$ attacks ~M_Name$ --Attack|~Name$ attacks ~M_Name$ with ~Weapon$ [[ [$Atk] 1d20 + @{selected|strength_mod} [Strength] + @{selected|pb} [Proficiency] ]] vs AC ~M_AC$ --hroll|~RB$ [$Dmg] ~DamageDie$ ~RE$, ~RB$ [$Crit] ~CritDie$ ~RE$ --template|AttackConds }} Potentially saving quite a bit of entry and maintenance in macros.
Impressive work Kurt! I look forward to play with it! Thanks!
Kurt, the template thing is awesome, and I believe the community once they start using it will appreciate it greatly as it will reduce the amount of content they need for the multiple cards by simply calling the template for the unique elements and leveraging the templates. That is great! I look forward to version 2 of this template/micro variable solution! --J
I am a little lost but look forward to learning the new features. I have a ton of macros.

Hi kurt. I was also wondering if it would be possible to put token id on the title part of the powercard. At the moment we can use the&nbsp; --tokenid|@{selected|Token_Id} --target_list|@{target|token_id} --emote| **@{selected|token_name}** Attacks **@{target|token_name}** so that we can get the emote and pcitures but i was wonder if it would be able to use the same on the title tag istead. Would this be possible? --name|@{selected|Token_Id}

Something similar to this So istead of the upper row, that would change for the title. What i mean is that now the title will have a picture the token and the Head Magister Ulfred Name. Hope you udnerstand what i mean

Great additions Kurt! Thanks.&nbsp;
thanks for the video Kurt! Great stuff the new features!

A tip for anyone playing with templates - Keep your templates and replacements text in an external text editor (I use Notepad++) because the built-in editor in Roll20 will add some oddities to the template content (in the conversion back and forth from text to html) which can cause weird errors. I do all my editing in the external editor and the just past the whole thing into the handout whenever I need to update.
Outstanding Kurt! I need to play with it a bit more, particularly with substitutions.&nbsp; --J

I've been playing with templates and working on my own starter pack of templates that I'll put up here at some point. I decided I could make more useful macros with a couple of cool new features (ok, one just makes things shorter, but I'm super excited about the optional tags in templates.) Version 3.7.8 is up on the development GIST. Besides some bug fixes, here is what's new: Version 3.7.8 Change Log - Updated --replacement tag to support multiple replacement lists by separating them with semicolons. For eample, &nbsp; --replacement|ChainMail &nbsp; --replacement|Longsword &nbsp; --replacement|RollVars &nbsp; &nbsp; is equivalent to: &nbsp; --replacement|ChainMail;Longsword;RollVars - Modified the order of replacement and template processing . This was necessary to support the next change. Here is what happens: All replacement values are loaded into memory Templates are looked up starting at the bottom of the card and working upward Every line of a template is processed first by replacing parameters, and then by processing replacements All tags in the card are processed for replacements. This means that a line added by a template might be processed a second time.&nbsp; - Templates now support optional line inclusion . An optional tag starts with a [ and ] enclosing one of the following: Nothing : If the option tag starts with [], it won't be added to the card An javascript-style expression : If the expression is true, the tag will be added to the card Anything else : The tag will be added to the card. &nbsp; If the above logic determines that a line should not be added, it won't add it at all - so no worries about tag name clashes. This is evaluated when the card is built, so Roll IDs and the like can't be used here, but we already have conditionals for those. These allow you to completely alter the card based on a macro-call-time expression, and you can use replacement variables for the parameters or @{} notation (in the macro), so you could have something like: &nbsp; &nbsp; --[~10!&lt;5]Damage|Your sacred flame does 1d8 damage &nbsp; --[~10!&gt;=5&amp;&amp;~10!&lt;11]Damage|Your sacred flame does 2d8 damage &nbsp; --[~10!&gt;=11&amp;&amp;~10!&lt;17]Damage|Your sacred flame does 3d8 damage &nbsp; --[~10!&gt;=17]Damage|Your sacred flame does 4d8 damage &nbsp; &nbsp; When this got called, if you specified @{selected|level} for parameter 10, it would display the appropriate damage dice for the caster based on their level. &nbsp; &nbsp; Of course, I would make an actual template/macro like this more in-depth and generic enough to handle multiple spells, but that's the idea behind the optional tags.

Updated 3.7.8 on the dev server (no version number bump). Replacements in templates now get applied to tag names as well as content, meaning it is possible to use replacement values when determining optional template tags.

Shatter SL 3:AttackName|Shatter;AType|SAVE;DType|thunder;SaveType|CON;BaseDamage|4d8;SaveEffect|half damage.;ADesc|Creatures within 10' of the selected point are effected. The format for an attack is pretty self explanatory, and the list above has an example of an enchanted weapon (Acris) to show how enchantment bonuses can be accommodated.There is also an example of a multiple tier attack (Sacred Flame) which gets better based on level. I just alter the character's macro with the new attack name when appropriate. Spells that can be cast in higher level slots are handled by adding another entry for them with the higher level slot indicated and updating the damage. For spells like Eldritch Bolt that can be targeted at different targets as it improves, I just have the player "cast" it multiple times. The Advantage replacement set replaces the text of the "rtype" character attribute with the appropriate dice. This means the Advantage/Normal/Disadvantage toggle on the character sheet is taken into account by the attack template. Finally, the macro I use for all character abilities is : !power {{ --replacement|RollVars;Advantage;Mace --template|Attack|@{selected|character_id};@{selected|character_name};@{target|token_id};@{target|character_name};@{target|npc_ac};~@{selected|rtype}$ ~HitBonus$;@{selected|strength_mod};@{selected|dexterity_mod};@{selected|wisdom_mod};@{selected|spell_attack_bonus};@{selected|pb};@{selected|spell_save_dc} }} The only thing I need to change here in most cases is the last item in the --replacement tag with the name of the attack (Mace in this case) from the replacements list above to set up a new ability. I'll probably still refine these a bit over time, but so far this format has been able to handle everything my players do on a regular basis. The cards below all use the same macro (i have a Format in the PowerCard Formats handout for each character name, which is why the cards look different). The only thing changed in these attacks is the attack name in the --replacements tag.

Hey Kurt! First off, awesome job with taking over maintaining and enhancing PowerCards!&nbsp; Love this script and would have hated to see it die.&nbsp; The default roll templates aren't very nice to look at (and yeah, I'm talking both OGL and Shaped).&nbsp; Anyway, having a bit of a problem.&nbsp; I'm attempting to replicate what you have in the post above and am running into issues.

Mace isn't listed in your replacements. In the macro: !power {{ --replacement|RollVars;Advantage; Mace --template|Attack|@{selected|character_id};@{selected|character_name};@{target|token_id};@{target|character_name};@{target|AC};~@{selected|rtype}$~HitBonus$;@{selected|strength_mod};@{selected|dexterity_mod};@{selected|wisdom_mod};@{selected|spell_attack_bonus};@{selected|pb};@{selected|spell_save_dc} }} The bolded part (Mace) needs to be replaced with the weapon name from the Replacements list. Currently, you have Heavy Crossbow, Shortsword, Longbow, and Warhammer defined, but not Mace, so it isn't using any of the replacement pairs to fill things in.

Also, I realized I was using @{target|AC} instead of @{target|npc_ac} in the macro above, so I updated it there... otherwise the NPC AC doesn't always get reflected properly. That makes things a little more complicated, but I'm actually using @{target|bar2} in my own macro because I use that as the AC of all of my tokens thanks to the weirdness of the ac/npc_ac split.

Yeah, my bad.&nbsp; My actual Powercard doesn't contain "Mace".&nbsp; I must of copied and pasted that from your example.&nbsp; Sorry about that!&nbsp; I've got attack macros already setup, but was interested in getting it more generalized with the templates and replacements.&nbsp; I'll fiddle with it some more.&nbsp; I'm sure I've got something futzed up.&nbsp; Thanks for responding and keep up the great work on this!
I can't for the life of me get the formats to work. Whenever I use a format, it is always the default green one.&nbsp; I've tried setting up the PowerCard Formats handout in so many ways, but it makes no difference. What am I doing wrong?&nbsp;

I believe the latest update to Roll20 includes an updated text editor that is causing havoc with lots of things :) I suggest copying the text of your handout and pasting into notepad, then editing your handout, hit control-a in the text box to select all and control-v to paste back in. I keep all of my handout text in an external editor (Notepad++ in my case) and always paste the whole thing in whenever I make edits.
