I'm trying to create a macro that will emulate the Call of Cthulhu Resistance Table, but I can't get it to work. The basic mechanic is: 1d20 < (active stat - passive stat)+10) Think the macro should be: /r 1d20 < ((?{Active|0}-?{Passive|0})+10)) However, when I run the macro, all I get is the result of the die roll. Please advise.

I believe you have to put all the math on the left side of the equation to get that to work: /r (1d20-(?{Active|0}-?{Passive|0}))<10 See if that works?

Using that formula, it performs the functions to the left of the <, but does not do the comparison to the right side. Any suggestions?

try: /r {(1d20-(?{Active|0}-?{Passive|0}))}<10

You can also use inline rolls to calculate the target number before rolling: /r 1d20<[[?{Active|0}-?{Passive|0}+10]] or [[1d20<[[?{Active|0}-?{Passive|0}+10]]]]

/r {(1d20-(?{Active|0})+(?{Passive|0}))}<10 is working. Now how do I get it to say "Failed" instead of "0 Success"?

The final version of the macro is /w gm Resistance Check /gmroll {(1d20-(?{Active|0})+(?{Passive|0}))}<10

I think the answer to "how do I get it to say "Failed" instead of "0 Success"?" is The API. I don't think there is another option you can use with macros.
