>Preamble
So, I was looking to start a private game with some friends I haven't seen in a long time. Plan was to use Tabletop Simulator, with the in-game tablets hooked up to fancy Google Sheets that do all kinds of handy stuff, more than basic calculation. TTS loads them, but once you load the party's sheets, the game slows to a fucking crawl. Sooooo.....

I wanna keep using my custom google sheets program. What VTT is my best bet? is it R20? Is there a good guide to getting going in R20?

Thanks.

Roll20 is good enough and has good documentation on how to use it.

Well roll20 is definitely a good option and it's free. they have built in tutorials and a faq for special hotkeys codes and other things.

If you want to play any of the rulesets supported by it, Fantasy Grounds is worth the $10/mo. The amount of automation you get from it makes Roll20 look like using physical sheets with broken crayons.

Roll20 is nice, but most helpful features (including API) are behind paywall.

I would recommend using MapTool. It has incredible customization options. Though it's not very user-friendly in relations to analogues.

What system? Also, yeah Roll20 is pretty good and easy to use. Check the wiki for anything you don't understand.

As some people have mentioned, there is a paywall for the API, but I have only run into one game system where I really needed the API and I found other ways around it.
