Multiple Entries for Table Blocks?

[SovietRedOctopi]

Is there a way to have a table block have multiple entries?
I'm trying to use it to list weapons & spells for SWADE

I have headers on the table like: Weapon, Range, Damage, Weight, etc... but when I list multiple entries like a sword and then a bow only the last entry shows up

It looks like this in the codeblock and again only the last entry is populating the table when viewing the character sheet
weapon: [Sword, 1, 2d6+STR, 0, 1, 3]
weapon: [Bow, 15/30/60, 2d6, 1, 1, 3]

I'm new to Obsidian and coding related things, so I'm sorry if this is a basic question but I've been wracking my brain on it and feel like I'm doing something wrong

@SovietRedOctopi
You have to enter your weapons in a different way:
weapons:

• name:
  desc:
• name:
  desc:

and so on.

At the Moment there ist a bug, so entrys with identical "desc" informations will not show up in the Stat Block.

I believe that is the syntax for populating a Trait block, I am trying to use a Table block for weapons instead and the entries are not identical, just subsequent

I tried the name: / desc: as you suggested but it did not fix the issue

You probably have it sorted by now, but I hope this helps someone!

The current output of the statblock is not in the format of a traditional table; however using subsequent name and desc terms will give you blocks of text. I had to play around with this a lot to set up a custom statblock, and found a few limitations which prevent the terms and values from appearing properly. It is important to remember that the structure of the data is vital. Each name term must be preceded by two spaces, a dash and space. The related desc term is preceded by four spaces (no dash).

  - name: 
    desc: 

I was encountering the same issue of only the final item being displayed, and was able to resolve it once I had the formatting correct.

Additionally, most special characters will break the statblock, like an asterisk or colon. If your entry will contain a special character, try surrounding the entire value in double quotes.

Wondering something similar. Want to recreate a true table with rows and columns, but not sure if it's actually possible.

It’s not, but this is a feature I have planned.

Excellent! I managed to replicate it using Javascript to create a table, but it's definitely not the most user-friendly solution

EDIT: Spoke too soon, can't quite figure out a solution to handle multiple rows

@wsethbrown - Just in case, I was able to do this with a table group and have the data set up like this where columns are Name, Damage, Bonus, and Range

weapons: 
- [Knife, 1, +2, Melee] 
- [Revolver, 2, +2, Short]

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but when I try this with my table group, then it doesn't work. Nothing renders. Is there any additional setting to it?
