5E Tables Question

[corum Rask]

If there a code you can enter when creating tables that will delay a roll (When a table has multiple sub tables to roll on) so you can get the rolls in somewhat of a order.

Example...I created a Random NPC table that will (choose sex, race, alignment, Name (male or female depending on what sex is rolled), Surname, Class/Profession, Quirks, traits, body type, Height and physical traits.

I was wondering is there a code that will delay the roll so I can get this to story in a set way. I want to set it up where first name, surname, sex, race, profession etc..takes less time fleshing the NPC out that way..

Hey corum Rask - the tables spit out their results when the dice stop spinning so they sometimes come in out of order.

You want to be creating a Story Template for that. Resources here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?37400-Video-on-Story-Templates) and here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Story_Templates).

I watched the video in the first link and skimmed the information in the second link. That's excellent--it reminds me of a Lone Wolf choose your own adventure.

Is it possible to set an amount of gold, say, 250,000, and then have a table template roll random magic items that have monetary values until the table rolls less than or equal to a given sum?

I can't think of any way to do that since it would need FG to check up on a fixed variable which it currently can't do. It might be possible via an extension but that's out of my ken.

Okay, no worries. The Tables feature is still quite useful.
