[[Bug?]] Inline rolls being parsed too soon?

1390838234

var AttackRoll = "1d20+6"; var AttackMessage = "/direct [[" + AttackRoll + "]] vs Reflex"; sendChat("", AttackMessage); The inline roll is being parsed before being sent to chat via sendChat("", AttackMessage); and shows $[[#]] in chat instead of the results. If I don't use /direct, it doesn't parse it until it is displayed in the chat window.

I've figured a way around the problem, but I'm basically have to write my own inline die roll css style inside my script with variables replaced for crit misses and hits.

Figured out what the problem is. It has to do with using /direct instead of any other chat command with the sendChat function. Is there a way to stop /direct from doing this?

I ran into that too, was rolling on a rollabletable with a macro, which didn't take inline rolls in the table item name. When I did it as a 'sendChat /w' a side effect was it worked with it. The other side effect was what you said, trying to do it as a /direct with any inline rolls throws out a $(something).
