Spiritual Weapon Higher Cast has wrong damage

In the "D&D 5E by Roll20" character sheet, Spiritual Weapon is supposed to add 1d8 for every 2 levels over level 2, but it's adding 1d8 for EVERY level over 2. There was a thread about this in March 2020, but it was closed with no apparent resolution.

The workaround for this is to put ".49" in the number of d8s in the higher level casting field for the spell.
Workarounds are great, but will the sheet editors get this message to fix it?  I'm kind of new to Roll20, so wasn't sure if I posted in the right place.

That would fall under a Marketplace Issue (compendium purchases, which technically includes the free SRD material), and would best be handled as a  Help Center Request . That will create a ticket which will eventually be assigned to a team member. It may take a while to get to as the priority might be judged to be below many other issues, but it will put it in the queue.
First, thanks for the quick responses. The description of the spell in the compendium is correct, so I assumed it was a problem with the 5E sheet and how it implements the spell.

The compendium contains two parts for every spell: the descriptive part and the data used to fill in attributes. The problem is in the second half. It has a 1 where it should have a .49. The sheet is grabbing the data correctly, it's the data that needs to be changed.
Gotcha. Thanks for explaining what's beneath the hood.
