invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 - MythicGM

Actually, it's likely something with the data of the script that gets repaired by the browser when you paste it in the text field. Line 301 of your script has 2 non-ascii characters that are probably what is causing the problem. The characters on either side of the yes.

Here is a hex dump of line 301, on the 4th line from the bottom you can see the .yes., if you look at the corresponding hex codes to the left, you'll find they are 0x93 and 0x94. If you get rid of those it should work for all.

I went ahead and pushed that change in my current Pull Request: #411

Hopefully that should sort it out very soon.

Sadly this did not fix it.

I even re ran a check against the file looking for any other UTF characters. There were not any.

[shdwjk]

If you're still in contact with them and they are still having the issue, maybe have them PM me a join link and GM me on Roll20 and I can try and track down what's happening?

Are you getting the issue when you install from the 1-click?

[pyromanci]

I had just created a new game my self to test.

I will send you a PM with the game link.

The issue does only happen with the 1-Click install. If you paste in the script manually it works just fine. Though right now going to the API Scripts page gives you the UTF-8 error.

[shdwjk]

I'm relatively certain this is an issue of the Unicode Characters in the description property of the script.json. I've made the correction in the above commit, which will hopefully fix it.
