[5e OGL] You cannot auto-roll a critical damage dice if you have disadvantage?

Hello people. New player. I'm using the character sheet to do most of my rolling as I'm getting used to the rest of the stuff. Learned how to use advantage/disadvantage/normal rolls, but I've noticed something. I set the "Critical Range" of my test attack to 1 for testing purposes. On "Advantage"/"Normal", there are no problems; when you score a critical, the critical damage is rolled as well as expected. But if you have "Disadvantage", but still manage to score a critical, you don't automatically roll for the critical damage roll. I've been checking DnD 5e but saw nothing related to this (disadvantage disallowing you to do the extra critical damage), so I'm thinking this is an auto-roll issue on the character sheet perhaps? Apologizes if I'm posting this in the wrong section or this isn't even related to this website at all.

I've moved it to the appropriate forum so no worries. Which sheet are you using? I believe there are 3 different 5e sheets.

Sounds like the OGL 5e sheet but I will let some of other sheet authors look into it. Thank you for the information.

I'll confirm that I'm seeing this behavior as well. Posted a link to this thread in the  OGL sheet thread as well
