A way to write shortcut-files for TTRPGS **feedback appreciated**

[jon-heard]

I am interested in writing shortcut-files that cover actions for individual tabletop RPGS. I came up with a basic system to accomplish this, and would like to get feedback on that system before I dive into writing the TTRPG shortcut-files. I've made a youtube video demonstrating a prototype for the system here:
Youtube demo of the prototype

You can download a copy of vault that I used in the demo video. Try it out! It includes release 0.21.0 of Text Expander JS (not released at this time).

Thanks for any feedback that you can provide!

I like this idea. I could use it to create random characters on the fly and put them in their own note in a nice format. I’ll have to look more into it.

Oh, that's a cool idea! If you come up with anything, then I'd be very interested in checking it out.

I'm currently discussing this with one user who's been doing some great work in a similar vein. We're looking to see if we can come up with something solid to build systems from. Perhaps something that could integrate with other plugins like TTRPG statblocks.

FYI, the release this prototype was built on is now officially released.

I like this a lot. Is there a plan to make the sheet rollable?

[jon-heard]

You mean having parts of the sheet be clickable, producing dice rolls? I hadn't considered that. It's certainly doable with the dice roller plugin, but I don't see how it could be done purely with "Inline Scripts".
... I've just added a feature to the backlog to tackle this.
