Does anyone know if there is a snippet code for spell level? It would be used for something like (dc = {{savedc:12+spelllevel}})
Just a quick question; in what context are you trying to implement this? If it's a class feature or feat I would suggest just entering the text "with a DC equal to 12 + the spell level" because the snippets generally can't detect relevant numbers outside of the feature in question.
I'd love the ability to do this but I must be missing something because it simply spits back the exact snippet I wrote - {{maxhp}} - rather than the corresponding value.

This only works in snippet fields. Where are you trying to use this code?
Ahh, that’s where my issue was. I was trying to make it in the description. Odd that the the tags work in just the description, while the snippets only in the, well, snippet field. Intuitively you’d think they’d work in both. Thank you for clearing that up for me.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the {{scalevalue}} snippet code when dealing with Options in a Subclass. For instance I can put the {{scalevalue}} code in the Snippet for one of the features, but not for any of the Options I create for the feature. It simply says "scalevalue - No level scale data available".
Do these snippets not work in Homebrew Monsters? Trying to build an animal companion and want to us {{modifier:dex}}, however it is just showing that text and not showing the dex mod as I intended.

Snippets are only valid in "Snippet" fields. Monsters have no "Snippet" fields.

Got it, thanks. That would certainly be helpful for use in creating animal companions.
Hey all, I did eventually figure it out. Here's what I used. It's not a "solution" exactly, in that it doesn't allow for nested expressions (those would be very welcome), but it does do what I needed.
{{1+(characterlevel/3)@rounddown}}
Now, if we could use snippet codes elsewhere, like in the "How many times can you cast this spell" field... sigh.

Can we get the ability nest more levels of math and modifiers, i.e. multiple () sets and modifiers?
e.g.: 3*(4+modifier:int)-(2*abilityscore:str)
e.g.: ((calculation)@min:2)@max:5)
Really having fun with the homebrew toolset so far!

How would I do this:
You get 1 of these for every 3 character levels.
I'd like to divide by three, round down, but have a minimum value of 1.
Example with a 1st level character. I can do:
{{characterlevel/3}} = 0.3333333333333333
{{(characterlevel/3)@min:1}} = 1
Yay! But at Level 8:
{{(characterlevel/3)@min:1}} = 2.6666666666666665
Boo. Using with @rounddown instead of @min:1 works to fix that, but then at Level 1 the result is zero of the things.
How can I combine @rounddown and @min:1? I've tried nesting parentheses, but
{{((characterlevel/3)@min:1)@rounddown}} throws wicked error: ((characterlevel/3)@min:1)@rounddown - Unknown chunk type: l

You could use {{limiteduse}} to show the actual number the feature gives. If they hover over it it will say limiteduse however.

Does anyone know snippet codes for immunity and/or resistances?
Example: Fey Ancestry giving immunity to sleep and resistance to being charmed?

D&D Beyond FoundersNothing for immunity & resistances - all of the available snippet codes are at the start of this thread.
What are you trying to achieve with your snippets? There may be another way of doing it.

Guess I didn't need snippets for it after all—just couldn't figure it out. Thanks again :D

Just curious but is there snippet code for weapon properties? (ex. light, thrown, heavy)
I see one being used on the defensive duelist feat, and was wondering how to replicate it.
