Hi all.

I'm currently finishing a subclass and I have a low level ability that provides flying speed which increases as the character gains subclass levels. The problem is that with flying speed I cant scale it off 10 x proficiency bonus or 10 x ability score modifiers because PB is abusable for multiclassing and ability scores would make it way too high at early levels. This means I have custom movement speed increases and I want to hide the later level ones and have the snippet for the 3rd level ability update to reflect the actual speed.

In summary, I was wondering if there was any way to code for current movement speeds. Any help would be really appreciated, this has been so confusing.

No, there isn’t a snippet for movement speed. However, you can code it to match your custom movement speed scaling. What’s the scale?

Ooh okay. The scaling is 15ft at 3rd level, 20ft at 5th, 30ft at 9th, and 60ft at 15th. How would I do that?

Ahh. I have absolutely no idea. However, I know where you can find a couple people who can help you: (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/25930-using-snippet-codes-in-your-homebrew). Whenever I need help with a snippet, that’s where I go for help. That’s where the experts lurk.

Okay I'll put this up in there. Thanks a lot!

Happy to help.

There might be a way to simplify this, but this should work for displaying the number of extra feet you're looking for:

{{(classlevel/3)@max:1,rounddown*15+(classlevel/5)@max:1,rounddown*5+(classlevel/9)@max:1,rounddown*10+(classlevel/15)@rounddown*30}}

I just hopped on to try reposting this over in that link today but dude you saved me that works perfectly! Thank you so much. Is there somewhere I can look for a more in-depth description of how the code works for the snippets?

You can start with that link I posted, and Mairondil has posted a couple of master classes threads regarding advanced snippets, like this one: (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/158191-snippet-math-theory).

Thank you!

Again, happy to help.
