Select attack with one button

hey guys, here is my next problem my token has two attacks (abilities) biteattack &{template:default} {{name=bite attack}} {{attack=[[1d20@{attack bite}]]}} tailattack &{template:default} {{name=tail attack}} {{attack=[[1d20@{attack tail}]]}} now i'm searching for a possibility to press one attack button and select and execute the needed attack i tried a new ability makro %{?{type|bite|tail}attack}} but i doesnt work (pretty sure because of order of operation problems but couldnt find a solution) next i tried a chat makro &{template:default} {{name=Crocodile}} {{Typ=[Bite](!  & #13;%{selected|biteattack}) [Tail](!  & #13;%{selected|tailattack})}} this worked, but the result is not shown in a template and instead as Rolling 1d20+5 = (14)+5'>19 somebody has an idea to solve this (prefered with a querie solution)

?{Attack?| Bite, &{template:default& #125; {{name=bite attack& #125;& #125; {{Angriff=[[1d20@{attack bite}]]& #125;& #125;| Tail, &{template:default& #125; {{name=tail attack& #125;& #125; {{Angriff=[[1d20@{attack tail}]]& #125;& #125; } Maybe this'll work? Remove the spaces between & and #, of course.

You can nest the entire template in a query: ?{Attack?| Bite,&{template:default} {{name=bite attack}} {{attack=[[1d20+@{attack bite}]]}}| Tail,&{template:default} {{name=tail attack}} {{attack=[[1d20+@{attack tail}]]}} } See the  roll queries advanced usage section of the wiki for more information on how to use the html replacements to avoid conflict with syntax.

perfect it works. thanks a lot

Welcome to the scary world of roll query nesting. An alternative to that if your macro starts getting too complicated is ability command buttons. There is also a Google sheet that I made to simplify the replacing of problem characters with html code. <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros#Ability_Command_But" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros#Ability_Command_But</a>... <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/3905546/easily-nest-roll-queries/?pageforid=3905546#post-3905546" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/3905546/easily-nest-roll-queries/?pageforid=3905546#post-3905546</a>
