is there a list somewhere of the variables that can be used in Descriptions and Snippets for example {{1 + modifier:cha}} I would like to use these but for example this one would give me +5 if my characters  cha was 18 but I dont need the plus I just want 5

I'm really interested in this too!

I would love a list like this! Looked around and couldn't find one. I started recording the ones I've found:

classlevel - Returns the character level 

@rounddown - Can be used in math equations to round the result down - i.e. {{(classlevel / 2) @rounddown}}

savedc:str - returns the Save DC based on your character's attribute + proficiency bonus

spellattack:wis - return's your character's spell attack bonus based on the chosen attribute

modifier:dex - returns the character's modifier based on the chosen attribute

NOTE: These only work within {{ }} tags. Also, they only appear to work within Snippet blocks, not in Description blocks.

Ooo nice. Another item of worth the original poster: you can add #unsigned to remove the +/- from a modifier.

So use {{1 + modifier:cha #unsigned}}

Snippet Code

The short descriptions on features, traits, and feats also include some simple code to auto-calculate a variety of numbers for ease of use. The syntax for this code is "{{inserthere}}" and can use math. The full list of available options are:

 

{{spellattack}} - your spell "to hit"
{{scalevalue}} - a class-specific value, such as Rage Damage for a barbarian
{{modifier:str}} - a modifier for an ability score (str, dex, con, int, wis, cha)
{{savedc:str}} - generates your Save DC using the specified ability modifier (str, dex, con, int, wis, cha)
{{fixedvalue}} - the fixed number from the feature or trait
{{classlevel}} - level in the contextual class
{{characterlevel}} - total character level
{{proficiency}} - your proficiency bonus
{{maxhp}} - your maximum hit points
{{limiteduse}} - total number of uses for the contextual feature or trait

 

 Do you know where it's possible to find a list of things like [Tooltip Not Found] [Tooltip Not Found] etc... It would be very helpful too.

Or does anyone have one?

Thank you all for the fast and helpful answers, it was very helpful and kind. Now my Homebrew creations for my players will be better than ever ^^

oh HEY! yo guys rock! thank you

Is there a way to use a damage modifier that depends on the character? For example, a {{modifier:casting}} or something for spells that depends on the spellcasting ability (which is tied to the character, not spell); or a {{modifier:finesse}} that would be the higher of Dex or Str; or {{modifier:monk}}, which would be Str for most, but Dex for monks or other characters possess the Martial Arts ability?

So i have tryed to add the {{modifier:wis}} to my custom spell but when i see the spell on my character sheet it just writes {{modifier:wis}} plain on the sheet instead of writing the number. What am I doing wrong?

These snippets work in only the "snippet" locations. are you trying to use them somewhere else? If so they won't work.

Question:

Is there anyway to make a calculation combining two (or more) of the snippet codes?

For example:   {{classlevel + modifier:int}}

 Yes. You can see how to combine snippets, as well as asking people very familiar with their snippets here:

Hi! I was wondering if you could help me. I'm trying to use a snippet to multiply Con modifier times class level and am coming up with errors. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

That should be {{(modifier:con)*classlevel}}

Is there any way I could contact you easier in case I have questions? I’m really grateful for your help btw it actually worked

You can PM me if you want.
