    Chaining table rolls to include using column

    I'm trying to replicate the encounter table on the left in FGU using MoreCore.
    I'd like to chain a table calling a table calling a table but additionally supply which column to use.

    I changed things slightly so that I can use the "-d 1d1" for testing
    /rollon Random Encounter Main -c Plains -d 1d1

    In my example, table "Random Encounter Main" on a roll of 1 in the "Plains" column calls table "Random Encounter Humanoid"
    but it displays all of the column results. In this case, I'd like it to only show the results for the "Plains, Road" column.

    So, back in the table "Random Encounter Main", in the "Plains" column, I'd like to do something like call
    [Random Encounter Humanoid -c Plains, Road] or some such. Is this possible, and if so, what is the correct syntax?
    Nothing I've tried so far has worked (and I'd rather prefer not to have to make 60+ or so specific tables).

    Thanks,

    Bill

    You can't obtain the result from a specific column from another table. You could use a Story Template which would probably help. https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassia...Random+Stories

    Zacchaeus, I had seen video 22, and it was exactly the reason that I had hoped that I could do it.

    Thanks guys. OK, I'll try to do it using story templates.

    I also have a question regarding random table chaining, if I may ask it here.
    Is it possible to make reclusive rolls in a random table, I mean if eg.: on 99-100 -> Roll again twice, ignoring results of 99‐100.
    Thank you in advance

    No. But you can duplicate your table (just copy it) and rename it. Remove the 99-100 line from the copy and call that table from your original table twice. So in the original table for 99-100 you'd have [2x][The Other Table]
