Wand of Magic Missile

Hi everyone, I need help to best configure the commands for a Wand of Magic Missile; I merged the macro found at this link (<a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6333139/slug%7D" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6333139/slug%7D</a>) with the "ammo" API and by doing so I can get three separate dice roll results and the charges are correctly scaled; the "problem" is that I have to enter twice the number of charges spent, is there a possibility to link the two values? Here is what I wrote: &amp;{template:default} {{name=Missile Magico}} !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource ?{Number of Charges |-1|-2|-3|-4|-5|-6|-7} cariche ?{Number of Charges |1,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |2,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |3,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |4,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |5,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |6,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |7,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] } Normal 0 14 false false false IT X-NONE X-NONE /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Tabella normale"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0cm; mso-para-margin-right:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:8.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0cm; line-height:107%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-language:EN-US;}

You should not need the first part unless you intend to use the ammo api - try this: ?{Number of Charges |1,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |2,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |3,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |4,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |5,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |6,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] |7,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] }

I absolutely intend to use the ammo API. Separately the two functions work perfectly; when I join them together they work the same but I have to enter the number of charges twice. I would like to understand if there is the possibility of making them work together but without the double request

Ah, apologies I just assumed since there wasn't pro tag. I believe this works: ?{Charges |1,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -1 cariche |2,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -2 cariche |3,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -3 cariche |4,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -4 cariche |5,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -5 cariche |6,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -6 cariche |7,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -7 cariche } Alternatively you could condense it with: ?{Charges |1,[[3d4+3]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -1 cariche |2,[[4d4+4]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -2 cariche |3,[[5d4+5]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -3 cariche |4,[[6d4+6]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -4 cariche |5,[[7d4+7]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -5 cariche |6,[[8d4+8]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -6 cariche |7,[[9d4+9]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} class_resource -7 cariche }

Thanks a lot! The first option is perfect! I just replaced "class_resource" with "other_resource" and it works perfectly. You don't see the pro tag because the subscription was made by the GM and I deal with macros and APIs. Thanks again! I put the "final version" below for anyone who wants to use it. ?{Charges |1,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -1 charge |2,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -2 charges |3,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -3 charges |4,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -4 charges |5,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -5 charges |6,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -6 charges |7,[[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] [[1d4+1]] !ammo @{selected|token_id} other_resource -7 charges }

If this is the 5e magic missile and you want to speed up your play and simplify the macro, you can just roll1 damage die and apply it to all darts. <a href="https://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/10/17/magic-missile-do-you-roll-the-same-d4-for-all-darts/" rel="nofollow">https://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/10/17/magic-missile-do-you-roll-the-same-d4-for-all-darts/</a> Please don't consider this a criticism, just a heads up that only 1 damage die is a valid way to do it.

I know and I am aware of that Sage Advice, but both our wizard and our sorcerer want to play that way, so I wanted to please them.

There's one here from a while back that totals the damage for you - it's for 5e shaped but you can just yank the rolls out of the middle if you'd like to skip the bit where you add the missiles together.
