Cool. I put my macros in the Dropbox also. I will check yours out tonight when I get home. Also, I have been working on convincing a few people I know to join us. I hope we can get a couple more.

I'll check out yours as well. I only had a few minutes to work on it this morning but I think I got a setup I like. My goal is to automate it to just one click. I wasn't sure if Kama wants us altering the NPC properties as well or if we should just stick to our own.
If any one knows of a function to access NPC stats from a selected token I'd love to hear it.
No need to really. If i do x amount of damage then it can just subtract it from the NPC Hp.
however, you have to consider buffs, special cases, and etc. in that regards it seems like a bad idea to try.
Can our macros alter our own stats or do you prefer to control that? I also think we should have realHP and tempHP properties for tokens.
I've already got HP on the monster tokens, it's just hidden from the players. :)
I'll handle the baddies, don't you worry about that.
As for your characters, I encourage you to handle damage and heals on yourselves. As for handling states, I'm still messing with them so we'll just use the right-click menus for them for now.
HP should be used as your "realHP" and maxHP is your max. I'll add a tempHP property for sure and it should be easy to implement in our damage macro as long as we can use if statements in the macro system.
We need a theme song. Every group needs a theme song.
Can it be techno?
Also, would you be mad if I just typed my rolls every time? :cool:
It's alright if you did, Dropbox has revision tracking! Just right-click on an item and click "View Previous Versions..." and you can roll back.
I dropped a few of my macros into the dropbox folder as well. The JoeDamage macro will take TempHP into account and automatically mark your state as bloodied, dying or dead. We also now have two new states called Marked and Quarry.
As mentioned to Kama the other day, I would absolutely be down for playing if my IRL D&D group didn't play at essentially the same time. On weekends we cancel I'd definitely be down for playing, depending on what you guys think about inconsistent players joining the group off and on.
I may have gone overkill with marcos. I automated a lot of my stuff and it seems to take some of the fun out of role playing. :(
