This is great! Yes added api insight for a more complex rumor system would be great!

@9:30 OMG I totally want to do this upgrade. These are some awesome ways to seed the environment with quest hooks. You can even do this with some objects? Like opening a book to a random page? Skimming some directions? Just added myself into your patreon. Really don't get to do Javascript at my current job and I need to keep some skills up- AND play DnD- This is perfect! Thanks a whole bunch and please keep cranking out stuff like this!

Mr. Olivo, you are my favorite source of information to do awesome things with Roll20. Your videos are easy to follow, and the results are outstanding. I can't wait to set up a scene that allows me to use this content. Please keep sharing your videos, my players will be very happy with the results.

This is so simple and really great at the same time!!! Thank you, Nick! I’m really looking forward to that API video for rumors Wisdom check, for example, it would really help! Keep doing the great work! Thank you for the videos!

Looking forward to a follow up video. YOURS ARE GREAT! Glad to see roll20 sponsoring these!

This is great! If you are having any problems, make sure that you click on "make table rollable for players" lol I missed that! Thanks for another awesome idea Nick, so glad that Roll20 is sponsoring you now!

Not sure if anyone else has commented about this already, but if the character_name attribute has more than one name (e.g. if the name has both a first and a last name) then the whispered message will contain the latter of the names. So if your character is "John Smith" then the message will start with "Smith says...". To avoid this, put the @{selected|character_name} in quotation marks!

Your videos have honestly changed the way I use Roll20. I’m about to DM only my second ever game of DnD through Roll20 and I’ve incorporated so many of your tips and tricks - I can’t wait for my players to see them in action.

Your videos literally have so many great DMing ideas that are super easy to implement. I don’t have the api but I have used so many of your macro ideas. Keep it up!

This is fantastic! Thank you Nick, great video as always!

Yes, I would love to see something done with skills and attributes to gather information using the API. Intimidation or Persuasion would be awesome. Especially if an NPC was possibly influenced greater by one or the other. So someone with great persuasion might not get the info whereas an intimidating presence might be better and vice versa.

I really liked this one. 'm a dinosaur who has played the early SSI Dungeons and Dragons games and this has a a bit of a nostalgic feel to it. I wonder if it was in any way possible, via API, to call a rumours table that a) allows an icon from the rollable table to be displayed or the NPC token or something as an Avatar when the whisper is executed (although I guess that would require pointing to a character sheet) and / or b) that subtracts an amount of currency from a character (basically, buying the patrons a drink or bribing the guard etc) before the table is rolled (based on the 5e Roll20 sheet) and / or c) that requires a check, say, Persuasion or Insight, to choose between different tables Obviously, the above looks like a ton of work. I love your videos, dude. You have no idea how much use I have gotten during this pandemic when, at times, I had 5 games running, keeping people entertained (including myself).

Those Videos are awesome.

This is awesome. I could definitely use an api that allows for the players to make a predetermined check to get more info

Thank you sooo much! My group loves rumors and this takes the heat off me in the moment. And yes an API version that would allow more options would be great.

Oh yes. I would love to see an API script that would allow my players to select a tavern patron, roll an appropriate social skill and get a rumor that is based on that roll from nothing useful to a "standard" rumor, to a "special" rumor if they exceed a higher DC or maybe on a critical success.

Wonderful work as usual 😉 looking forward to that script.

Using this as dialogue for specific NPCs and in-jokes.

This is SUCH a cool idea! :D

great content

Great content as always, Thank you! I would love to learn how to create the random rumor/multiple rumor tables via the API.

This was great as I'm playing in a few campaigns that are on free accounts. However, I have a paid account that I run games with so I'm interested in the more complex rumor mill!

I would love to see an API version of this. Thanks

That’s great, I’m gonna do this in my campaign

hey! Its Nicks face!! Hiya Nick!

But where to put this for games that use all 3 bars? Maybe in the Aura 2 bar if I knew what the code was for that location ;)

Im saying this macro is Sexy but....mmmm nice nice Love your vids so far! Please keep it up!

Thank you nick this is great as always. Just wondering, with an API can the rumours be limited in number and only relevant to specific characters?

I would like to see an API version :-)

Hey Nick! This is SUPER awesome! I don't like adding the macro as an attribute on the character sheet. The player could simply use it anytime and pull information whispered to them that i don't want. When they are not in a tavern for example. I just added the macro as a token action. When they click their guy, it shows up on the top. But I'm getting a repeat of the character's name on chat. I don't know what's causing it. For example if I click on character Mike, and I want to talk to NPC Joe, the chat entry reads "Mike Joe says ((the rolled table result)).." Why is Mike's name being repeated in chat?

I am having a slight issue, if the character has a space in their name it will show up in the text. If Tiefling Bard tries to get rumors from chatty kathy, the message will end up as "Bard chatty kathy says [the rumor]". It seems to be using the represents character part and not the character name part.

couldnt have come at a better time! As always brilliant and helpful, thanks. I would be interested in my players being able to gather more intel than just a rumor. Also, could I just make a macro visible to all players instead of making it a token action on each players character sheet?

Hey Nick! I would love to know if is it possible and how to use apply damage api with power cards... coz alterbars doesnt count resistance/immunity! so i would like to use a script to let the gm decide if the monster has immunity or resistance n apply the correct dmg

Hey nice Tutorial. Can you tell me how can I adjust which table results after rolling are displayed only to GM and which to players?

Couldn't you have made it easier and not have to select a token by saying "/me"? Then it should message just the person who clicked the NPC.
