🐞 Stat block shows dice formula instead of dice icon.

[Snohild]

Check for existing bug reports before submitting.

• [X] I searched for existing Bug Reports and found no similar reports.

Expected Behavior

It should show a dice icon which I can click to roll attacks, damage etc.

Current behaviour

This happens only when I include monsters via the CLI-prosess. If I do not include monsters, and only use the included monsters in Fantasy Statblock, then it works fine.

Reproduction

When I first add the plugin (Fantasy Statblock + Dice Roller) everything works fine, and the stat block got its dice icon to click on. When I do the CLI-prosess to add content og and monsters, and after the index prosess, the dice icon just disappears, and it shows the dice formula text instead.

Which Operating Systems are you using?

• [ ] Android
• [ ] iPhone/iPad
• [ ] Linux
• [ ] macOS
• [X] Windows

Obsidian Version Check

1.5.12

Plugin Version

4.1.7

Confirmation

• [X] I have disabled all other plugins and the issue still persists.

Possible solution

I got no idea. I have tried different config files, done the entire CLI-prosess from start to finnish numerous times, and nothing works.

Can you show me the note text?

[Snohild]

From the Stat Block inside Obsidian? Or the Json.file? Or the template?

[Snohild]

This is by using the: monster2md-yamlStatblock-body.txt template.

[Snohild]

When I remove the entire CLI-folder from by Obsidian vault, the Fantasy Statblock Plugin works perfectly well with its prelist of monsters which comes with the PlugIn. But I want to add my own monsters from my own books as well.

This text is formatted to be parsed using the “Render as Markdown” setting in the layout.

I have been discussing with @ebullient the best way to handle this, and I plan to just make Statblocks always render markdown (it’s confusing that it doesn’t).

[Snohild]

Is there a way for me to fix this now?

[Snohild]

Considering not everyone else is having this issue.

[valentine195]

Go into the layout in settings and edit the Basic 5e Layout.

In the blocks, find all the trait type blocks, and click edit on them.

Turn on the render as markdown setting.

[Snohild]

Hmm, did not work:

I restarted Obsidian, also tried to reload.

[valentine195]

Actually, looking at it again, it doesn’t look like the CLI emitted the code block ticks around the dice roll. So yeah, these will never render.

[Snohild]

Is there a way for me to manually fix this? I'm a bit new to this area.

[ebullient]

https://www.ebullient.dev/projects/ttrpg-convert-cli/docs/configuration.html#render-with-fantasy-statblocks

Always check the docs. Configuration doc has a note about using the dice roller plugin and using the dice roller with fantasy statblock rendering.

[Snohild]

Okey, I feel so stupid .. It worked 😅

[Snohild]

Thank you SO much! I need to learn to read more through the docs.

[ebullient]

Suggestions for improvement are welcome. =)

[Snohild]

Suggestions for improvement are welcome. =)

It makes everything work, except for the Spell Hit Modifier.

[ebullient]

grumble grumble. ;)

[valentine195]

Reluctantly welcome?

[Snohild]

No worries if there is no solution to it yet. It just looks a bit silly with the dice formula in the Stat Block.

[Snohild]

@ebullient With the new update, I get an error:

[ebullient]

That's a different issue. Will re-release to address that (I'd hoped the latest Quarkus release would fix it, but it didn't).

[ebullient]

Should be fixed: https://github.com/ebullient/ttrpg-convert-cli/releases/tag/2.3.9

[BlueUser18]

I am having the same issue. It was working before version 4.2.2, but now it is not. I also just updated CLI to version 2.3.9 and I am still not showing dice in the statblocks. They show up in the blocks for spells but the dice do not render across the screen.

[valentine195]

If you want dice to render, you need to either:

1. Globally turn it on in DR settings
2. Shift click the dice
3. have the CLI output the |render flag

[ebullient]

Make sure you have both of these set:

• "useDiceRoller": true
• "yamlStatblocks": true

In your picture, I still see dice formulas in your statblock, which suggests you're missing the latter of those two.

[BlueUser18]

My current CLI config

{ "from": [ "PHB", "DMG", "MM", "LMoP", "DIP", "KftGV", "VGM", "XGE" ], "paths": { "compendium": "6. Mechanics/CLI/", "rules": "6. Mechanics/CLI/rules" }, "template": { "background": "ttrpg-convert-cli-main/examples/templates/tools5e/images-background2md.txt", "monster": "ttrpg-convert-cli-main/examples/templates/tools5e/monster2md-yamlStatblock-body.txt" }, "useDiceRoller" : true, "yamlStatblocks" : true, "full-source": { "adventure": [ "LMoP", "DIP", "KftGV" ], "book": [ "PHB", "DMG", "MM", "VGM", "XGE"
] } }

[BlueUser18]

If you want dice to render, you need to either:

1. Globally turn it on in DR settings
2. Shift click the dice
3. have the CLI output the |render flag

Shift click works for anything where the dice are available.
