Macro for Ranger's Natural Explorer bonus to Perception and Survival

Hey Wizards of the Macros. I have been tinkering and searching, trying to create a macro for a Ranger character's Natural Explorer ability which doubles their Proficiency Bonus on Perception and Survival checks in their chosen terrain. A coder I am not, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking!
I'm not very experienced at macroing (I get by enough at least), and I don't know the system that Ranger you're referencing is from but this is what I've come up with with a character in Pathfinder as a base: ?{Favored Terrain? |Yes, &{template:pf_generic} @{Ash|Perception-cond-notes} {{generic_note=@{Ash|Perception-note}}} {{name=^{perception}}} {{Check=[[ @{Ash|skill-query} + [[ (@{Ash|Perception})*2 ]] ]]}} @{Ash|toggle_accessible_flag} {{font=@{Ash|apply_specfont_chat} @{Ash|use_specfont}}} {{scroll_desc=@{Ash|scroll-desc}}} {{color=@{Ash|rolltemplate_color}}} {{header_image=@{Ash|header_image-pf_generic-skill}}} {{character_name=@{Ash|character_name}}} {{character_id=@{Ash|character_id}}} {{subtitle}&#125 |No, &{template:pf_generic} @{Ash|Perception-cond-notes} {{generic_note=@{Ash|Perception-note}}} {{name=^{perception}}} {{Check=[[ @{Ash|skill-query} + [[ @{Ash|perception} ]] ]]}} @{Ash|toggle_accessible_flag} {{font=@{Ash|apply_specfont_chat} @{Ash|use_specfont}}} {{scroll_desc=@{Ash|scroll-desc}}} {{color=@{Ash|rolltemplate_color}}} {{header_image=@{Ash|header_image-pf_generic-skill}}} {{character_name=@{Ash|character_name}}} {{character_id=@{Ash|character_id}}} {{subtitle}&#125 } Most of that was just copy pasted from the Pathfinder character sheet macro for Perception. You might be able to do much the same.  It creates a drop down bar so you can give the macro input on whether the Ranger is in Favored Terrain or not. You could either: -make 2 macros (1 for perception like the one I pasted, and a 2nd that identical but putting Survival everywhere it says Perception instead) -Or you could change the query to something else that makes sense and make 4 choices instead of 2; 1 for each scenario: a) perc w/ FT b) perc w/o FT c) surv w/ FT d) surv w/o FT
Thanks Christian. I'm using the 5e OGL sheet for the Ranger, so it will require some modification. But your  [[ (@{Ash|Perception})*2 ]] might be enough for me to modify my own attempt at a Macro to work. Thanks!
