5th Edition OGL by Roll20_Mods: Not understanding how to use properly.

1545646665

Edited 1545646921
Hello, I am trying to edit a character sheet in the "Master's Vault" which is set to 5th Edition OGL by Roll20_Mods. Specifically, the hit dice field. When I click it... there is a roll in the chat that says for example: 6 Hitdice (d8+2) If I increase the value of the hitdice field from 1 to anything else, nothing changes when I click it to roll. It still outputs some number in the (d8+2) range. How do I edit it properly to increase the hit dice and get a valid roll? Thanks for any help.

I think it's only track number of hitdice you have left, not how nay you want to consume and roll on a short rest. So when you rshort rest and roll hit dice, I guess it's just most simple to just one at a time untill you healed enough instead of introducing a new tracer for how many you want to roll simultaneously. I'm not too familiar with the Rkll20 version of the sheet but I've played 5E
ah ok. That makes sense.

If you make a hit die roll and then press up in the chat you'll get the code for that particular mechanic, with a bit of tweaking you can make a multiple use macro (not sure how well it would play with any automation from the OGL companion script though...). Original code: @{Githyanki Fighter|wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{hit-dice-u}}} {{mod=D@{Githyanki Fighter|hitdie_final}+[[@{Githyanki Fighter|constitution_mod}[CON]]]}} {{r1=[[1d@{Githyanki Fighter|hitdie_final}+[[@{Githyanki Fighter|constitution_mod}]][CON]]]}} {{normal=1}} @{Githyanki Fighter|charname_output} Tweaked multi-use version: @{Githyanki Fighter|wtype}&{template:simple} {{rname=^{hit-dice-u}}} {{mod=D@{Githyanki Fighter|hitdie_final}+[[@{Githyanki Fighter|constitution_mod}[CON]]] x?{How many to use} used }} {{r1=[[ ?{How many to use} d@{Githyanki Fighter|hitdie_final}+[[@{Githyanki Fighter|constitution_mod} *?{How many to use} ]][CON]]]}} {{normal=1}} @{Githyanki Fighter|charname_output} I've bolded the bits I changed/added but of course, you'd need to change the name or use @{selected... or @{target...
@Ziechael: Thank you, that's a pretty good tip! That helped enormously. I was also looking at modifiying the attack rolls. So, using that info I was able to figure out that template:atkdmg was what I was looking for (I think).
