Macro to add bar 2 number + d20. Cannot get the bar to be added to the roll.

&{template:default} {{name=Frost Check}} {{Check=[[1d20 + @selected|bar_2]]}} I thought that would give me a 1d20 + the current bar value of the selected token. I made the value of the bar 30 to test it. It is not getting added to the d20 roll. Is my macro bad?

The syntax is a bit off and needs curly braces for attribute calls, so - @{selected|bar_2} should work in place of what you have now

You'll also need to get rid of that underscore... for macros it's @{selected|bar2}, for API objects it's bar2_value... you've got a Chimera going on there :)
