Don't know if anyone has suggested this already, but the only thing keeping a few groups I'm in from fully being able to enjoy the OMM experience is the fact that the character sheets are super limiting. There are a few settings on character sheets I'd like to see brought over from Roll20, but my main concern right now is just letting the player put in whatever numbers they want. Lets say I am proficient in the Acrobatics skill. You only have the option to set it as proficient, expertise, or jack of all trades; however, I cannot simply add 2 to my acrobatics. It has to follow the format of one of those three options instead of letting me input whatever I want. The sheet wants to autocalculate it depending on your ability scores and the options above. A great first step would just be letting people put whatever numbers they want in. Please do let me know if there is already a way around this!

On a side note, I've also noticed there doesn't seem to be a option in the spells section for multiclassing (calculating your spell slots depending on if you are a half caster/full caster, full caster/full caster, martial/half caster, etc multiclass). It seems to just kind of not work once you start needed to multiclass. Again let me know if this is a thing now! 💖

i just want to be able to fully edit my character sheet! also, i understand a lot of spells are from separate source books but like half of my spell list is missing. I rush added my character as we switched to this platform mid campaign and now im left with an empty character sheet I can barely fill out

Ah ha! Okay, I was just trying to figure this out myself, but this suggestion already exists! Re: sheet editing:

(1) Would like to be able to add skills into the front page of the new (not legacy) 5e sheets in OMM. Currently can only add/edit the Legacy 5e sheets. (Immediately relevant to ⬆️ example! with how flexible the 'build functionality' can be)
(2) Would like to just have a ez clickable roll somewhere for straight ability checks; like you can in other VTTs, possibly right next to the Ability name.
(3) When dungeoneer, explorer, etc. packs are added to the character inventory via the character creation, could they be containers with individual items within? [Not the biggest deal for many things in those, but for stuff like rope, which gets used/left behind, it is. Currently my players are having to individually add those dozens of items or alternatively keep it in their notes that they are actually sans rope, etc.]
(3a) Or, if not possible to add as a container-type, just a choice to auto-add all those individual items versus 'a X pack.'
(4) Would it be possible to create an individualized copy of said inventory pull (in the sheet, not the character studio), that we could then edit with details?

The last, (4), would be the more complicated of suggestions, just a nice thing and in no way a big deal if no. A girl can dream!

Thanks! -- S.
