Trusted macros are macros that meet any of the following criteria.

  • Typed in by GM.
  • Button clicked by GM.
  • Macro called by [macro(): ] that lives on a Library Token that can not be changed by players (i.e. is not owned by anyone who is not a GM), regardless of who runs the macro.

Using trusted macros can, for example, allow gamemasters to set up macros on library tokens that can be called by players, but edited only by GMs, and which can access functions that players would not normally be able to access. Such macros can use trusted-only options or functions (such as the [token():] roll option or the switchToken() function) to modify or read values from NPC tokens that players do not own.
