- Click Save Script at the bottom.
Troubleshooting Installation
What to do with errors that may occur during installation.
Dice Rolls do nothing
If pressing the roll buttons does nothing, you likely have an issue with the script.
- While joined into the game, open another tab (with the game area still open)
- Go to the Campaign landing page.
- From the campaign landing page, go to game settings and pull down to "API Scripts*
- Scroll to the bottom and click "Save Script".
- In the API OUTPUT CONSOLE you should see the following in Yellow;
"UPDATE/ADD ATTRIBUTES FOR:----------------------->-DicePool" "Update Attr: pcgm" "Update Attr: gmdicepool"
If that does not occur the script may be an issue.
Script Errors after 'Save Settings'
If the API OUTPUT CONSOLE states anything other than the yellow text listed above, you may have to go back to the fiddle and copy it again.
- If copying from the fiddle does not result in the Yellow output text, post in the support thread about the issue.
- Note in the Support thread "When trying to load the dice roller script the API OUTPUT Console displays an error".
- Post the error (either by typing the text or by pasting a screenshot of the error).
Other
Any other error, please refer your issue to the support thread.
- Post the error (either by typing the text or by pasting a screenshot of the error).
The Game Master Sheet
NOTE: Due to the way that Roll20 only allows for 1 kind of "sheet" the Game Master Sheet shows up as a regular Character Sheet, with the name "-DicePool". When you run the API script for the first time it will auto create this sheet. If it did not auto create it, follow these steps to force it;
- Join the Game
- In another tab, Go to the API Script section of the Game Settings.
- Save any of the scripts, this will cause the Scripts to re-run and will auto create the GM Character Sheet.
- Refer to https://wiki.roll20.net/index.php?title=SWRPG-API-Compatible&action=submit#Dice_Rolls_do_nothing to see the correct output of the API OUTPUT Console
While the HTML lists 1 "Character Sheet" this sheet is actually broken up into two parts; The Player Sheet and the GM Sheet. The GM sheet is a fully different layout than the Player Sheet and is designed with information to make it easier for the GM to run the game with useful spots to collect information in one place. The Player Sheet is designed to Help a Player collect the relevant information they need. The Player Sheet is also the default sheet and thus any new Characters will use this one. NPCs will also be using the Player Sheet.
The first thing to notice about the sheet is, like all Roll20 Character sheets the top has 3 sections; Bio & Info, Character Sheet, and Attributes & Abilities.
Bio & Info
This is where you can list a picture (though it won't be seen by anyone but the GM) and a Character Story, as well as GM viewable notes. You may think, how is this useful AT ALL on a GM sheet? You can make this sheet viewable to the Players and all they can see is this section. With that, you can give the Campaign a sort of splash screen, with the story of the campaign, and maybe a line or two about the characters.
Attributes & Abilities
Attributes are filled in as the character sheet is filled out. You can use them in macros or ignore them. Abilities, on the other hand you can make macros and tie them right to that character sheet. They can additionally be made into actions that apply to an associated token. The token actions don't really help for a GM sheet, but you can still use macros as they are always nice.
Character Sheet
This is the main guts of the GM Sheet. It has several parts; GM Dice Pool, Destiny Pool, Group Details, and Campaign Details.
GM Dice Pool
Arranged in sections; Left, Middle, and Right.
NOTE: The GM Dice pool is an often hiccuped part of the sheet. As a GM you need to be very careful what you put in this spot. Any dice listed in the GM Dice Pool will be rolled by the Players when they fill in the corresponding Dice Pool on their Character Sheets. If the intent is to hide the difficulty until the roll, that is fine, this is not an issue, but if you intend for them to see the whole dice pool, this can cause problems and roll additional dice that were not intended.
The Left Side
Filled with the Positive Dice
- The Blue, Boost dice,
- Dice added due to situation or environmental conditions, talents, or GM whim.
- The Green, Ability
- Dice, representing the innate ability to do something. Derived from the Characteristics.
- The Yellow, Proficiency
- Dice, show you not only have innate ability, but some training (ranks) in a skill.
- Upgrade: section,
- This is a box that will account for a die(dice) upgrade(s). Rather than having to figure out if a Green die turns into a Yellow die, or a Yellow adds a green, fill in this section to have the sheet handle that for you.
- Downgrade: section,
- Just like the Upgrade section, this handles downgrades.
The Middle
This section is the oddball. First it only has 1 die, the White, Force Die. This represents the Living Force affecting a situation.
- This also has a D20 button.
- This rolls all the dice in the GM Dice Pool section.
- Lastly, it has an arrow button.
- This button zeros out all the dice listed so you can create a new dice pool fresh.
The Right Side
Filled with the Negative Dice
- The Black, Setback dice,
- Representing an opposite to the Boost Dice.
- Dice added due to situation or environmental conditions, talents, or GM whim.
- The Purple, Difficulty dice,
- Represent the inherent effort required to succeed with a task or situation.
- They represent the opposite of the Green dice.
- Per the Rules as Written for this system, unless there is player buy in to bypass the limit, typically
you cannot have more than 5 difficulty dice.- This changed with the Mass Combat rules in the Lead By Example Career book. The new maximum is 6 difficulty dice.
- Difficulty descriptions;
- (-) Simple or Zero Purple Dice,
- (1) Easy or 1 Purple Die,
- (2) Average or 2 Purple Dice,
- (3) Hard or 3 Purple Dice,
- (4) Daunting or 4 Purple Dice,
- (5) Formidable or 5 Purple Dice,
- (6) Overwhelming or 6 Purple Dice,
- This was added to represent a mass combat force that is overwhelming.
- (6+) Impossible or 5 Purple Dice + the attempt requires a Destiny Point flip in order to even attempt the roll.
- The Red, Challenge dice,
- Represent a huge issue to try to overcome.
- As an opposite of the Yellow dice they show upgraded difficulty.
Destiny Pool
This section has 2 parts, the 3 buttons, and the 2 text boxes.
Troubleshooting:
If the Destiny Pool does not respond properly, do the following;
- Ensure there is at least 1 GM or Player inside the campaign.
- From another tab or window, go to the Game Settings drop down and select API Scripts
- In the API Script window, save the scripts (Press the Save script button).
- Refer to https://wiki.roll20.net/index.php?title=SWRPG-API-Compatible&action=submit#Dice_Rolls_do_nothing for the expected output of the API OUTPUT Console
- Put 1 in light and 1 in dark side on the GM's pool.
- On the GM Dice pool, click "Clear pool"
Buttons
- Button 1, Force Player Update,
- This button syncs the Destiny Pool numbers from the GM's Destiny Pool to all Character Sheets assigned to Players.
- Button 2, Clear Pool,
- This will zero out both Light and Dark Side Destiny Points.
- Button 3, Use Dark Side,
- This is how you represent using a Dark Side Destiny Point against the Players. It will automatically remove 1 from the Dark side, and add it to the Light side. Additionally, it will post to the chat box that you used a Dark Side Destiny Point.
Group Details
This section was designed so the GM can keep a log of the Player mechanics so the GM doesn't have to peer into the Player Character sheets all the time to know what they represent.
- Character Motivations,
- Allow you to track, motivations per character. This can be helpful to view when people are role playing so you know if you should give them bonus XP after the session.
- Character/Group Obligations,
- Allow you to track Obligations (used with the Edge of the Empire line) against the Players or against the whole group.
- You can use this area to keep track of their Obligation and write in notes about how you want to handle when it is triggered, and how many times it has been triggered.
- Character Duties,
- Allow you to track the Player Duties (used with the Age of Rebellion line) the Players are aiming to use to help the Rebellion.
- You can use this area to track their Contribution Rank, as well as details about each individual's Duty.
- Character Moralities,
- Here you can track the Morality (used with Force and Destiny) each Player is emotionally bound to.
- This area can be used to track their progression through the morality scale and track them in session conflict points.
Campaign Details
This section is the most complicated. It is broken down in 6 Parts, the Top Section, General Info, Location, Reward(s), Specific Details, and NPC Names.
The Top Section
This area is to identify missions and tasks to separate them. This way you can see the progression of the story.
General Info
Here you can start to build out the task/mission. With some general ideas. Brain storming with fragments of ideas or firm notions of what you want this task/mission to accomplish.
- Location
- This section requires the least explanation. It is where the task/mission is happening with as many spots for details as possible.
- Reward(s)
- This allows you to think of rewards before the missions or task starts. Whether you want to give money, items, XP, or reward bonus XP as well.
- Specific Details
- This section tries to dive more into the plot of the mission/task. With areas for Objectives, Key items, and NPCs the Players will run into.
- Finally, there is NPC Name
- This section allows you to link to a NPC Character Sheet and list a few key details. It also allows you to roll initiative on up to six groups of NPCs.
Troubleshooting the NPC Initiative Rolling
When you are expecting to call a separate sheet, you need to fill out at minimum 3 areas;
- The Name of the Character Sheet
- This is the name that appears on the top of the Character Sheet. It is also what is displayed in the Journal.
- The Name of the Character
- This is the "Name" in the Character Info Tab of the Character Sheet Tab of the Character Sheet itself.
- Open the Character Sheet
- Look at the tabs at the top, click the far left one, titled "Character Sheet"
- Below the Top Stats, Dice Pool, and Destiny Pool, there is another set of tabs. Look for the one labeled "Character Info"
- On this tab there is a "Name" field this must match the field in step 1 exactly. No extra spaces, or extra characters.
- The field you are expecting to call
- Whatever field you are expecting to call, should have some sort of value in it.
Future Changes
- 3.0.3.5
- Better GM Related Roll Templates
- 3.0.4.X
- GM "Player Viewer"
- This is a feature I am developing to give the GM a way to view Player attributes.
- This will be built with common attributes, and it will allow for a search for others.
- GM "Player Viewer"
The Player Sheet
Adapted from the official character sheets, it should help store all information needed for a Player to game in the system.
Bio & Info
This is where you can list a picture, this picture can be used to make a Character Token for use on the game play area as well. While it is not required that the Character Picture be used as the base for the character token, it is often used that way.
- Character Story. This is where you bring your character to life! The more information you put here, the more your GM can draw that story into the campaign.
- Think of names, planets, locations on planets, and organizations your character has run into.
- NOTE: Do not make the story too long. The GM is not generally expecting you to write a novel, just a bit of a short story.
- There is also a section where the GM can write notes about your character that only they can see
Attributes & Abilities
- Attributes are filled in as the character sheet is filled out. You can use them in macros or ignore them.
- Abilities, on the other hand you can make macros and tie them right to that character sheet. They can additionally be made into actions that apply to an associated token.
Character Sheet
Broken down into 4 types of sub sheets, Character Sheet, Vehicle Sheet, Group Sheet, and Companion Sheet.
Character Sheet
This Sheet is broken down further, into Four sections; Top Stats, Destiny Pool, Dice Pool, and Sub Tabs.
Top Stats
This is the main volatile stats of the character.
Wounds
In this system rather than having a health pool that you slowly empty as you take damage, you have a Wound Threshold that counts up from zero up to the amount of wounds you can handle before collapsing.
- When you exceed your Wound Threshold, you fall unconscious and take a Critical Injury.
- Every hit after you fall unconscious you take another Critical Injury.
- You stop tracking wounds when it reaches two times your Wound Threshold.
Strain
- Like Wounds, you count up from zero up to your threshold.
- Also like wounds when you exceed your threshold you fall unconscious.
- Unlike wounds, you do NOT take a Critical Injury for exceeding your Strain Threshold.
Soak
This represents the amount of wounds or strain damage you can mitigate.
- Pierce, Breach, and Stun Damage can bypass some, or all of your soak.
- Soak is applied to every hit (except as explained above), and does not “go away”
Defense
This represents the defense you have against incoming attacks.
- Listed as Melee and Ranged, through Melee works against Brawl attacks as well.
- Each point, requires incoming Combat Weapon attacks to add a number of setbacks equal to the appropriate rating.
Encum

- You are able to exceed your Threshold, but for each point over, you add a setback to all rolls you do.
Force Rating
Represents the number of White Force dice you can roll to activate Force Talents or Force Powers.
Destiny Pool
Broken into Buttons and Text boxes.
- Button 1, Sync Pool with GM,
- Ensures your listed Light and Dark side points match the GM’s.
- Button 2, Roll Destiny,
- This is how you roll the Destiny Points and auto add them to the appropriate side of the Pool.
- Button 3, Use Light Side,
- This is how you indicate to everyone you are using a Light Side Destiny Point.
- It also posts to the chat window that you have done this.

- Critical Injuries
- This section keeps track of Critical Injuries. There are 5 parts, Critical Roll Offset, Roll Critical button, Critical Number, and Add Critical button.
- Critical Roll Offset
- This represents how much the rolled number will be changed.
- A Weapon or attack with Lethal Blows or Vicious can add 10 (per rank) to this number. Additionally, activating the Critical multiple times in one attack adds 10 to this as well.

- Game Mechanics
- Obligation
- Type - This is the name of the specific Obligation
- Magnitude - This is the weight of the Obligation. This can go up, by ignoring it. This can do down, by handling it, or if it is triggered. Once you obtain Obligation against you, it can never go below 5 total Obligation.
- Details - This section you can write details about how the Obligation affects you. The more details you put here, the easier it is on the GM to handle if your Obligation activates.
- Duty
- Contribution Rank - After your group’s Duty hits exceeds 100 you raise your Contribution Rank and the group gets a reward (that has to be approved by the GM) from the Rebellion. After the Contribution Rank goes up, all Duty Magnitudes for the whole group are reduced to zero.

When Rolling Destiny Points, a Dark Sider turns one Light Side point to a Dark Side Point.
- At 19 Morality, the Character’s Strain Threshold is lowered by 1, and the Character’s Wound Threshold goes up by 1.

Combat
Designed to consolidate all things needed to perform in a combat situation. Broken down into sections; Initiative, Weapons, Combat Skills, Talents and Special Abilities, Force Powers, and Signature Abilities.
- Initiative
- Due to only being used in the beginning of combat, it is able to be hidden (and shown) with a checkbox.
- This makes it so it is not in the way after initiative has been rolled in a round.
- Initiative will show up in the Turn Order as NPC or PC.
- Any NPC can utilize ANY NPC slot
- Each NPC can only use 1 NPC slot per round,
- A Nemesis can use 2 slots, but the second slot has to be at the end of the round.
- Any PC can utilize ANY PC slot, regardless of what their roll was
- Each PC can only use only 1 PC slot per round.
- The order you went last round does not mean you have to go the same order the next round.
- Weapons
- The top section details with the important parts of the Weapon. The button in the middle will Roll the skill you list and display the Damage/Critical/Special/Range to the chat window.
- If the weapon adds automatic symbols or dice, list them in the Modifiers and they will automatically be added to the rolls.
- Auto Generated Symbols
- There is not a way to list an automatic Triumph or Despair (I don’t think any skill or weapon can do that anyway).
- s = Success
- f = Failure
- a = Advantage
- t = Threat
- Added Dice
- b = Boost Dice
- g = Ability Dice
- y = Proficiency Dice
- w = Force Dice

- Put skills you will use in combat situations here to ensure easier access.
- NOTE: It does not pull the skill modifiers, so they have to be retyped, in the appropriate box.
- Talents and Special Abilities
- Any Talent or Special Ability (like Species Abilities) can be listed here.
- Force Powers
- List the Base Power
- To list upgrades to the Base Power, click the checkbox labeled Upgrades.

- Cybernetics
- Cybernetics was given its own section because they act different than other gear.
- Tools
- The Tools section is meant to be an area to fill in tools that you want to know more than just their name.
- Other Gear
- Personal Gear
- This section is for gear or items that do not need further explanation, just the name is enough.
- Assets & Resources
- This section can be for anything that does not have another box to fill in available.
Notes
A section to write any kind of note you can think of or that might be useful for your Character.
Vehicle Sheet
Broken down into 3 Sections; Starship, Planetary, and Beast
Starship
A starship uses Piloting (Space) to fly in combat. A starship generally uses Astrogation to go from Planet to Planet. Starships ALWAYS use Piloting (Space) to fly, even within an atmosphere.
- Stats
- Basic stats of the Starship.
- Silhouette - The size of a ship.
- Speed
- The Maximum and Current Sub-light speed of your Vehicle.
- Handling
- When there is a positive number here, It adds boost dice to the Piloting (Space) checks of the vehicle.
- When there is a negative number here, It adds setback dice to the Piloting (Space) checks of the vehicle.
- Armor
- This is the vehicle version of Soak.
- Hull Trauma
- This is the Vehicle version of Wounds.
- System Strain
- This is the Vehicle Version of Strain.
- Defense
- Add setbacks per zone to attacks against this vehicle.
- Vehicles below Silhouette 5 do not have Port or Starboard shields.
- There is a maximum of 4 in any one zone.
- The zones for Defense are called; Fore, Aft, Port, and Starboard
- Space Vehicle Details
- Basic Details about the Starship.
- Crew Roles
- A listing that can pull from a separate Character Sheet so any Starship related actions can be rolled from 1 place.
- The Dice section allows for Modifiers to the skill check.
- When you are expecting to call a separate sheet, you need to fill out at minimum 3 areas;
- The Name of the Character Sheet
- This is the name that appears on the top of the Character Sheet. It is also what is displayed in the Journal.
- The Name of the Character
- This is the "Name" in the Character Info Tab of the Character Sheet Tab of the Character Sheet itself.
- Open the Character Sheet
- Look at the tabs at the top, click the far left one, titled "Character Sheet"
- Below the Top Stats, Dice Pool, and Destiny Pool, there is another set of tabs. Look for the one labeled "Character Info"
- On this tab there is a "Name" field this must match the field in step 1 exactly. No extra spaces, or extra characters.
- The field you are expecting to call
- Whatever field you are expecting to call, should have some sort of value in it.
- Weapons
- Like the Crew Rolls, it can automatically pull the Character skill from a separate Character Sheet here.
- The Dice section (also like the Crew Roles section) can be used to allow for Modifiers to the combat check.
- Attachments
- This section is for Attachments that add onto the Starship.
- Starship Critical
- Works just like the Critical Injuries but pulls from a list of Critical Hits.
- Cargo Hold
- This is for listing what is in the cargo hold of your starship.
- Passengers
- This is for listing the Passengers you are carrying on your starship.
Planetary
Everything works the same way as Starships, but with the information geared towards Planetary Vehicles. Planetary Vehicles do not use Astrogation.
Beast
This section is for a Riding Beast, as a mode of transportation.
Group Sheet
Broken down into Base of Operations and Shared Resources
Base of Operations
This area is broken down into Rebel Base, Business, and Homestead. This allows you to list the upgrades and NPCs working for your Base of Operations.
This is an area to list Group Information.
- Group Details
- Basic Details about the group.
- Group Contacts
- Interesting people that you meet that you might want to note.
- Group Tasks
- Missions/Tasks you are currently on.
- Group Obligations
- Obligations on the Group itself.
- Group Resources
- Information you can sell or anything else you can pull from multiple times.
- Group Possessions
- Anything that doesn’t fit anywhere else but belongs to the Group.
Companion Sheet
A truncated Character Sheet for NPCs controlled by a Player.
Future Changes
Critical Injuries
Right now the Critical Injuries only work for the main Character Sheet character. I want them to work for Riding Beast and Companion. Currently the Riding Beast and Companion copy the code from the character so any Injury applied to one, applies to all
Critical Hits
Right now Critical Hits only work for Starships. I want them to work with Planetary Vehicles too. Currently like with Riding Beast/Companion, the Planetary Vehicle copied the code from Starship so a Hit applied to one, applies to both.
Neat features I want to add
- To get a handle on Sheet Workers to attempt to streamline the code.
- To put in a method to sync the Group Sheet data between the Players and GM like the Destiny Pool does now.
- Testing is in progress
- Integrating better than the default Roll Templates
- Look into a GM Roll
- This is not very likely but if I get time I will look into it. It is an often asked for feature.
