Homepage games highlighting

Homepage games highlighting

This script does two things.

1. It adds a highlight to bookmarked games where you weren't the last person to post.
2. It changes the date/times of the homepage to use "human" descriptions (like 'today' and 'yesterday').

This script also includes some pointless trivia.

BBCode editor syntax colouring

BBCode editor syntax colouring

This script does not work on the kiwi mobile browser.

This adds syntax colouring to the BBCode editor. It can be useful to help make sense of the tag soup that sometimes happens on character sheets.

It turns this...

...into this...

This is the first release and the colours are still being tuned. Expect updates.

Ordering game forums by creation date

Ordering game forums by creation date

By default, game forums are listed alphabetically. This script orders them by the date that they were created.

Copy DnDBeyond Spell BBCode

Copy DnDBeyond Spell BBCode

This script lets you copy spells from D&D Beyond to your clipboard in BBCode format for easy pasting into custom character sheets.

Use the link beneath each spell, then Ctrl+V into your abilities section.

New feature: You can also apply a filter and get the BBCode for all the spells on the screen.

This script lets you copy class abilities from D&D Beyond to your clipboard in BBCode format for easy pasting into custom character sheets.

Game themes

Game themes

Applies themes to games.

Sci-fi

Fantasy

Creepy

Themes are defined by adding the theme name into your game's advanced rules definitions.

Currently, only "scifi", "fantasy" and "creepy" are supported, but I hope the GP community will create more.

Then people with this script will see their character sheets and games with modified styling.

DnDBeyond character sheet to Gamers' Plane

DnDBeyond character sheet to Gamers' Plane

This script lets you (mostly) populate a custom character sheet from D&D Beyond.

1. Navigate to your DnDB character sheet. There'll be a new option on the DnDB toolbar.

[ +- ] Screenshot

2. Create a character from this custom character sheet.

[ +- ] DnDB import

3. Edit the character sheet, and there'll be an option to paste the DnDB data.

[ +- ] Screenshot

4. Take a look at the preview.

[ +- ] Screenshot

5. Tidy up.
* It always sets the spell casting ability as int. Change this in the BBCode.

[ +- ] Screenshot

* It doesn't add the alignment.

[ +- ] Screenshot

* It doesn't enable Jack of Trades for bards (there's a checkbox for that near proficiency)

Embedded character sheets

If...
...your character sheet is on another site (e.g. DnDBeyond or as a pdf on Google Drive);
...you don't want to install tamper monkey;
...you don't want integrated dice rolling;
...it's just a small throwaway game.

Embedded character sheets
1. Create a character sheet using the template below.

[ +- ] Embed sheet

2.
a) Click the sample URL
b) Paste your character sheet's URL into the top (if it's DnDB then use the shareable link)
c) Click "Load"

3. It loads the URL into a frame and is available in the game

4. Regret not using a real custom character sheet every time you need to roll dice.

Print helper

Print helper

This script tidies up some of the full-thread printing and allows you to choose what to print.

1. Navigate to your thread and choose the "full page" option.

[ +- ] Screenshot

2. There will now be a "Print options" on the header bar.

[ +- ] Screenshot

3. Open that up and choose what you'd like included in the print and whether spoilers should be opened.

[ +- ] Screenshot

4. Print the page and save to PDF.

[ +- ] Screenshot

5. If you need to edit the PDF or convert it to MS Word then that's not my problem. Try Google.

Custom decks of cards

IMPORTANT

To use this, all the game's members will need to have the script installed.

Maybe later, someone will add this functionality to the main GP site.

Using the script
1. Defining the decks
In GP the card decks can be defined in the game options using image URLs or text.

2. Players - Drawing from a new deck
The syntax is [draw="deck name" deckState]#card to draw[/draw].

Don't worry about the deckState (which card have already been drawn) for now.

If no deck name is used, then the first one in the game options will be used.
e.g. This draws 3 cards from the game's first deck (maybe it has only one).

After posting, the cards are drawn.

The bottom right has the new state of the deck (which you'll need for drawing without replacement).

3. Drawing more from a deck
Either typing or clicking the state add a subsequent draw.
The state is added to the draw BBCode, and the user just has to say how many cards they're selecting.

4. Display
The display depends on whether a card is text or an image URL.

A couple of decks

DnDB feats, backgrounds, magic items & equipment

Copy DnDBeyond

This script lets you copy feats, backgrounds, magic items, and equipment from D&D Beyond to your clipboard in BBCode format for easy pasting into custom character sheets.

I've commented the javascript in case somebody else wants to maintain it, or use it as a template for other scripts.
