What am I doing wrong?

I created a Macro to roll init and but the token into the Turn Tracker but it rolls and adds the token name not the value... like this: Mark (GM):rolling 1d20 +Shawn ( 17) = 17 what did I miss? /em @{selected|token_name} Rolls Initiative /roll 1d20 +@{selected|token_name|INIT} &{tracker:} Thanks
leave out the 'token-name' part in the second line, and enclose it all in square brackets, as so: [[1d20+@{selected|INIT} &{tracker}]]
No he had the /roll phnord Try this... Firstly, for "token_name" the token needs to have a name. You can say it represents a character in the token properties, if you haven't already. Since the token_name just calls the name, I don't think you need it in the 2nd one, and you can just have @{selected|INIT} &tracker There's a ":" in the &{tracker} for the example you provided. It could be this... /em @{selected|token_name} Rolls Initiative /roll 1d20 +@{selected|INIT} &{tracker} It works with a character added and with a field called "INIT".
AWESOME!!! Thank you very much!! that works like a charm.
They both work just display differently Thank you both !!
is it possible to do this but i puts up asking for a modifier so i can add a baddies one at a time whit out filling out sheets for them?
@James H. - I believe what you are looking for would be a macro like the following: /em rolls initiative! [[1d20 + ?{Initiative Mod?|0} &{tracker}]] This should do what you want, but you can really do a lot more with macros when you have the sheets populated with at least a minimum amount of stats. Several games have scripts that allow you to import mobs quickly and easily, though it would require mentor status.
