Costomized dice

Hi all, I am new to roll20 and I have the problem, that I wanne use some costomized dice. The problem is, that on these dice, there are two different symbols in with a value between zero and four. Is there a possibility to create these costomized dice using a macro? For example one die has the following eight sides: 1) blank 2) one square 3) one triangle 4) one square and one triangle 5) two squares 6) one square and two triangles 7) three squares 8) two squares and two triangles I am experienced in programming and would use some temporary variables, but as I know this isn't possible within a macro, right? The next problem is, that you don't roll one of these dice, but rather three or more and want to have the sum of squares and triangles. Best regards Falko

Rollable Tables  are what you want. They won't have a numerical value, but you can essentially roll on them and have it output "three squares" to chat for an example. You may be able to make use of the image capability of the tables to simulate the look, but I'm not sure on that.

Hi Falko, Rollable Tables feature can be used to create custom dice that trigger with a macro, and shows the dice-face-picture in the chat. Wiki docs for this, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Card_Decks_and_Rollable_Ta" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Card_Decks_and_Rollable_Ta</a>... However this method would not give the sum of squares and triangles across multiple rolls of the table. Someone else may come along with another idea for how to accomplish this.
Many thanks so far. I will check these tables, even if they are not summed over several dice.
