Is there a game state or heartbeat object that is accessible through the API?

Shouldn't.  Once your in token-mod it rules.  This just delays a few seconds before invoking it.  

Thanks, I think we leapfrogged each other. I was responding to Kastion's post about changing lines in Token-mod.

In looking at some of the roll20AM commands, I'd definitely do comma separated commands rather than --.  Parsing by -- will cause problems.   So !delay,5,!roll20AM,audio,play|<whatever> and parse the command by ! everything before is for delay, everything after is neatly setup for target api.

Then go to line 2332 of token-mod in the handleInput function right below this:             if (msg.type !== "api") {                 return;             } Add the following:                 if (!state.tokenmod_pid)                     state.tokenmod_pid = "API";                                  if (msg.playerid !== "API")                     state.tokenmod_pid = msg.playerid;                 else                     msg.playerid = state.tokenmod_pid; This will make !delay work with !token-mod

Here is an example of what you can do with !delay <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PFj0yY-5_A" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PFj0yY-5_A</a> In the video I use !delay with the following commands: !token-mod !cfx !sfx !kaboom !ping (New function I wrote) I have yet to test it with any other commands so far but if they use msg.playerid I'll likely have to add a few lines of code to it like I did with !token-mod

Now compatible with inline rolls. Thoroughly tested but if you have any issues with this let me know: /* Delay Function / Command by Kastion the Scriptomancer Profile: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/users/3173313/kastion" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/users/3173313/kastion</a> Syntax: !delay [seconds] \\ [speaker] -- [command] */ function processInlinerolls(msg) { if(_.has(msg,'inlinerolls')){ return _.chain(msg.inlinerolls) .reduce(function(m,v,k){ var ti=_.reduce(v.results.rolls,function(m2,v2){ if(_.has(v2,'table')){ m2.push(_.reduce(v2.results,function(m3,v3){ m3.push(v3.tableItem.name); return m3; },[]).join(', ')); } return m2; },[]).join(', '); m['$[['+k+']]']= (ti.length &amp;&amp; ti) || v.results.total || 0; return m; },{}) .reduce(function(m,v,k){ return m.replace(k,v); },msg.content) .value(); } else { return msg.content; } } function delayFunction(speaker, output, pid) { return function() { if (output.indexOf("!") !== -1) sendChat("player|" + pid.trim(), output.trim()); else sendChat(speaker.trim(), output.trim()); } } on("chat:message", function(msg) { if('api' !== msg.type ) { return; } var cmdName = "!delay"; var msgTxt = msg.content; if(msg.type == "api" &amp;&amp; msgTxt.indexOf(cmdName) !== -1 &amp;&amp; playerIsGM(msg.playerid)) { var inline_rolls = processInlinerolls(msg); var seconds = msg.content.split(' ')[1]; var speaking = msg.content.split('\\')[1]; var command = inline_rolls.substring(inline_rolls.indexOf('--')+2); var pid = msg.playerid; if (speaking) speaking = speaking.split('--')[0]; else speaking = ""; if (!isNaN(seconds) &amp;&amp; command) var delay_length = seconds * 1000; else return; setTimeout(delayFunction(speaking, command, pid), delay_length); }; }); on('ready',function(){ log("-=&gt; Delay command loaded (!delay) &lt;=-"); }); To make certain scripts that use msg.playerid in them work with !delay, generally search for the following (Using token-mod as an example): if (msg.type !== "api") { return; } Add this right below the above code: if (!state.tokenmod_pid) state.tokenmod_pid = "API"; if (msg.playerid !== "API") state.tokenmod_pid = msg.playerid; else msg.playerid = state.tokenmod_pid; If you have any issues with the script let me know.

What script gives you the !ping command? That's pretty neat.

You may wish to replace your use of sendPing with this function: &nbsp; &nbsp; const fixedSendPing = (function(){ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; var last={}; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; return function(left,top,pageid,playerid,pull){ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; if( last.left&nbsp; &nbsp;=== left&nbsp; &nbsp;&amp;&amp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; last.top&nbsp; &nbsp; === top&nbsp; &nbsp; &amp;&amp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; last.pageid === pageid ) { &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; sendPing(-100,-100,pageid,null,false); &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; } &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; sendPing(left,top,pageid,playerid,pull); &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; last.left=left; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; last.top=top; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; last.pageid=pageid; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }; &nbsp; &nbsp; }()); sendPing() will not ping the same place twice without an intervening ping to another location.&nbsp; This function fixes that by detecting a repeat and issuing a ping to another location.

I can't replicate what you're talking about at all. I select a token, run "!ping @{selected|token_id}", scroll down, run ping, scroll down, run ping and I can ping the same token over and over. Check this to see what I'm talking about

I see the pulling, but not the pinging.

Kastion, you've been writing some nice scripts.&nbsp; I would suggest making a separate API thread for each once you get some downtime.&nbsp; Even if you don't plan to develop and/or support them further...&nbsp; This would help us plebs to better find and share your scripts.&nbsp; Thanks for sharing your work btw.&nbsp; Cheers

The Aaron said: I see the pulling, but not the pinging. I wasn't aware there was supposed to be a colored circle expanding like when you manually ping a location. "sendPing" has NEVER under ANY circumstances done that for me. I'm not really sure what I'm missing but there has never been a "ping" just a "pull.

Yeah I'll make some separate threads for them later on today. EDIT: I've been passing my (the GM) msg.playerid to the sendPing function and have seen no "pings" just the "pulls". When I set the optional playerid field in the function to null a yellow ping started to appear. Apparently if the GM is the player it doesn't show the expanding circle. Not sure if players see the GM's "ping" I'll have to log in with a test player account and try it out. On the same note though I prefer it without the expanding colored circle and just a pull.
