Bug: D&D 2024 Character sheet - Heavy Crossbow rolls with Disadvantage when Dexterity is greater than 13

Score + 1
We just created a new sheet. The rules as written for a Heavy weapon are as stated: You have  Disadvantage  on attack rolls with a Heavy weapon if it’s a Melee weapon and your  Strength  score isn’t at least 13 or if it’s a Ranged weapon and your  Dexterity  score isn’t at least 13. The character has a dexterity of 17, and when we roll to attack with a Heavy Crossbow, when rolls are set to Automatic for determining advantage/disadvantage, the attack is always at disadvantage. I tried setting the character's Strength to 13 as a test, and this fixed the issue. Rules as written, since the character's Dexterity is at least 13, this should not impose Disadvantage

Hi Kevin G.,  The Suggestions & Ideas forum is not for bug reports. It is for suggested improvements.  To file a bug report please use the Bug Reports & Technical Issues for community help, or for Roll20 help please use the Help Center .  Regarding the issue: To provide a workaround create a new weapon or use a weapon that does not have the Heavy property. Then set up the weapon to have the same setup as a Heavy Crossbow.
