[DMgenie] Importing a block of monsters
Gwen Morse
copied all the d20 stat blocks and cleaned them up so that they follow
the correct Stat block formatting as shown in the DM Genie import
window (F5 // Stat Block). That window also indicates that multiple
entries should be separated by multiple dashes with a carriage return.
I exported the mostly cleaned up files into a nice text document with
5 dashes and a carriage return between each entry. I can't find a way
to mass import the whole file at once.
Also, I'm a little confused about the formatting (Specifically, Speed).
In the sample block, it shows to put the speed as a number followed by
"ft.". All good.
Name; Race Cls1/Cls2: CR #; hp ##; Init +#; Spd ## ft.; AC ## (##
Touch); BAB +#/+#; Atk: +# melee (1d8 + 2, WeaponName), +# ranged (1d6
- 1, WeaponName); SA SpecialAttacks; SQ SpecialQualities; SR ##; PR
##; AL XX; SV Fort +#, Ref +#, Will +#; Str ##, Dex ##, Con ##, Int
##, Wis ##, Cha ##.

When it shows the results of the sample formatting (what to expect it
to come out looking like), it has a "0 ft, ## ft". Sure enough,
there's a "0 ft" at the beginning of each speed entry when I test
individual blocks. What causes this and is there any way to fix it?
