Repeating Section Help

I am looking for some guidance working with a repeating section. I want to calculate a carried weight total from an equipment list. My initial thought was to have an on change script fire when someone made an edit to the list. Every item in the list will have a checkbox to toggle whether the item is being carried or not. Every item will have a weight. If the item is being carried, then add the weight to the total carried weight. So psuedo code wise: for each(repeating_equipment) {     if (repeating_equipment_carried == 1) totalweight = totalweight + repeating_equipment_weight } I am just not sure how to cycle through my repeating section. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I normally bash scripts with a hammer and brick to make them work, so I'm not one to give sheetworker advice, but you should be able to use TAS (The Aaron Script) to handle summing repeating attributes.&nbsp; Here's a recent post that might help:&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/9992186/" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/9992186/</a>

Thanks vÍnce , I will take a look! Yeah I am a square peg round hole kind of programmer too...

It may be a bit crusty though, as it was implemented using the aforementioned hammer/brick programming method... <a href="https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/tree/master/Mongoose_Traveller2e" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/tree/master/Mongoose_Traveller2e</a>

Thanks Martin! I will take a look. I am a real basic programmer (and I can program in BASIC!) so all guidance is welcome. I don't care if it is elegant, as long as it works!&nbsp;

As an alternative to TAS, there's also my RepeatingSum: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/RepeatingSum" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/RepeatingSum</a> Its not as elegant as TAS, but I think it's a lot easier to use.

Yeah, RepeatSum is simple and nice, it's what I used when adding Tracking/history page for XP &amp; Money on the Star Wars D6 sheet. link to relevant code section

Awesome, thanks guys, I will delve.

RepeatingSum FTW! Thank you for the assistance! I have achieved success.
