NEW: Youtube Introduction to the Custom Sheet!
UPDATED: January 12, 2022.
- Fixed an issues with ranged damage being calculated with coordination instead of Awarness.
- Switched right and left soak on armor panel
- KNOWN BUG. Submitting a NULL value when spending gold causes an API crash.
Alright, if you follow me at all, anywhere on social media, you are likely aware I've been working on a Conan 2d20 sheet for Roll20. The sheet won't be available via the standard channel since it requires the API and there are already two free sheets available directly. For those of you who expressed interest and wanted something with a little more automation, I still wanted to make this available.
Requirements: Roll20 Pro Subscription. No way around it, the sheet uses the API extensively.
Set-up Requirements: Like most Conan games on Roll20 we will need a few roll tables.
CD for combat dice with the following entries: 1, 2, -, -, 1 + effect, 1+ effect.
HITLOC for hit locations with the following entries: Head, Torso, Right Arm, Left Arm, Right Leg, Left Leg. These entries need the following weights as well: 2,6,3,3,3,3.
Finally you will require a character named GMPANEL. This is the Doom pool. This is the player momentum pool. The Character sheet makes calls to the API using this object by name. It must be named this or the sheet will not work.
Basic Game Setup
Ok, now that we know what we need lets walk through the steps. I have a video detailing these steps here: VIDEO LINK
- Copy and paste the HTML code into a game's custom sheet HTML.
- Repeat this for the CSS code.
- Save these.
- Switch to your Game's API input and add a new script, I normally named it Conan.js
- Copy and paste the API code here.
- Save it.
- Open the game and create the two roll tables
- Create the GMPANEL character.
- Open the GMPANEL, go to the character sheet and select the GMPANEL tab.
- Click Initialize.
The GMPANEL
Creating a character
!!IMPORTANT!! Anytime you create a new character you need to go to the GMPANEL on that character sheet and click initialize. This sets up the characters attributes so the API can call them when it needs to. If you do not do this, the API will likely attempt to get attributes that do not exist, resulting in a crash.The Code:
I will update the dates on these as I make modifications and release new versions.
Last updated these on May 9, 2021. I inadvertently broke the combat dice without realizing it. That is fixed. Also noted the pay upkeep was not working properly due to sheet workers. Still has some issues. The main UI for the character sheet has been updated as well (I believe the last update had the original version)
HTML CODE: Updated January 12, 2022
CSS CODE: Updated January 12, 2022
API CODE: Updated January 12, 2022
Going forward the sheet can be found here: https://github.com/starshipsandsteel/Custom_2d20Sheet-roll20
If you open the code and simply copy and past it as is, it will mostly be fine, but I have found it will append a little snippet of code to the end of the copy and paste. This doesn't seem to affect the HTML and CSS, but it breaks the API. After you paste the API into the API window, scroll to the bottom and delete the bad part of the code.

And one final note. If you go looking through the code, you will most assuredly find references to things and classes that are no longer used or commented out. Some things need to get reimplemented still, others need to get removed. Code cleanup is the least fun part, and so the last thing I do...IF I do it. :)
If you have feedback or ideas of improvement, I would love to hear them, even if I don't use them.
Stay strong!
