Custom Character Sheet Creation- Asking players questions to modify rolls.

 Hi-  I've been trying to build custom character sheets for an RPG system i'm designing. In order to do it- I need to let players specify modifiers before rolling (such as the value of help, advantages and disadvantages) I'm hoping you can help me out, I've used a lot of roll20 sheets and they have options where you can select what you want to roll and add modifiers in a popup. For example I want people to click to roll the "Deduction" skill, they then select the "Attribute" they want to use, How many help dice they have and how many advantage dice they have. These choices will all modify the final roll. I've been trying multiple things for a few hours- but I've not had any luck.  Can anyone point me to a good example or resource that can help me out. Its important to note that some but not all of these options are on the sheet as attributes- some are just filled in (like how many advantages you have) (Reposting as I got told my last post was in the wrong section)

We'll have to see some of the code you've tried to make it easier to suggest fixes. There are a LOT of ways to do what you're describing, but some might not suit your sheet. Also, we'd need to know what your attributes are called (both as visible name options, and the roll20 sheet name) and which ones you want to be visible options. And also how your rolls worth, both with aned without advantages or disadvantages. By the way, this absolutely is character sheet question - don't think otherwise from what I'm about to say. What you're asking here is a macro question. Rolls embedded in character sheets are just macros, so if you know how to do what you're asking as a macro, you can easily take that and embed it into a character sheet.
Hi GiGs, Thanks for the reply! I manged to power through it- took about 4 hours of crawling through examples to find an example that worked simular to how I needed.
