Turn Order in an Action Point based System

Hello everyone, I will be GMing in a Campaign where the Initiative is at the Same time the AP pool of the Character. So if Character A has an Initiative of 50 and Character B one of 40, A would go before B would Attack him for 6AP and the initiatives would be 44 for A and 30 for B, so A could attack again for 6 AP before B would get his turn. I am using a Macro with the following command to roll for initiative and it is working fine: /roll 1d10+?{BaseIni?} &{tracker} I also found it usefull to have a macro that subtracts, say, 6AP from a Char using /roll 6 &{tracker:-} But when i tried to do a macro, that takes care of the whole attack (rolling dice and subtracting 6 from the initiative) I ran into some Problems. When I tried to do it with /roll 1d100+?{modifier?} /roll 6 &{tracker:-} In this case the initiative was lowered not only by 6 but also by the result of the attack-roll. Does anyone know, how I would have to write it in order to only subtract the second "roll" i.e. 6 from the initiative-score?

I'll tinker with this, but in the meantime, try putting a line of text between the rolls.

Solved it. Format the tracker change as [[6 &{tracker:-}]] Edit: I kept a line of text still between the two roll lines. Don't know if it is necessary, but it works with the line there. viola!
Thank you. It works fine, even without a line of text in between :D
