Attribute accepts text, linked token displays differently

I use the left bubble/bar on tokens for Armor Class. I can put 4/1, to simulate no shield or shield used, in it if it isn't linked to my AC attribute and it is fine. The AC attribute on the sheet itself can hold values of AC:1, AC:4 or even 4/1. When I set the token to be linked to that attribute it will only show a number value, in the case of 4/1 it will show 4 (simple math). If my sheet is accepting text, shouldn't the bubble/bar as well?

My guess would be that the act of tying the bar to an attribute causes the attribute to be evaluated as a mathematically function, resulting in 4/1 == 4. Try changing it to 6/2 and see if you get 3. Probably the best workaround would be to use something else as a separator: 4|1 4,1 4:1 etc

It deletes all of those out. 6/2 = 3, more simple math like 4/1. It won't even accept 4~1.AC:4 turns into just 4

I'll see if I can come up with something more concrete later today.

It can't deny 4.1 so I will use this unless we figure something else out.

Great! Hated to leave you hanging without a solution. =D
