Critical Damage always comes to ZERO

I grabbed a standard drow elf and made a duplicate copy, renamed it, and made some modifications to it. I did all the modifications on the character sheet, I did not go into xml or anything. When it attacks, if I roll a critical it says Critical damage =0. How or where do I set that?

What game and character sheet are you using? For the D&D 5E by Roll20 sheet, the crit damage is simply the same roll that is made for a regular damage roll without any modifier.  So if you have an NPC with a weapon that does 1d6 + 3 damage, the crit roll should be [ 1d6 +3 ] + [ 1d6 ]. You'll have to show a screenshot of what the sheet looks like, as well as the roll output you're getting in chat.  (FYI for the D&D 5E by Roll20 sheet you can force a crit roll by using '%{selected|repeating_npcaction_$0_npc_crit}' and changing the 0 to whatever the number of the attack is).

Thanks for your reply. This is a screen cap of the token action that I click to launch the attack, and output of 0 damage Also I have a picture of the breakdown of the attack.. Do you need more pictures?

I did not know that... Just to clarify: that is the command to roll damage  for a critical hit (as opposed to '%{selected|repeating_npcaction_$0_npc_dmg}' to roll damage for a non-critical hit).  It's the same as what you get if you have 'Auto Damage Roll' set to 'Don't Auto Roll Damage' and you click on the button that is created (either the name of the attack such as 'Greataxe' or the word 'Attack' that is displayed with the to hit roll for a critical hit.   (Technically the button is actually something like %{-LlIhXK-KQpWJ6HMDHj6|repeating_npcaction_-LlIhXbYhVUEg0MhC8Pm_npc_crit} but I swapped out the character ID and attack ID.) So I don't want anyone to think that you can create a button/macro that will generate an attack  roll that is automatically a crit, but you can make one for a critical damage roll.

Just an idea, what happens if you change the 'ON HIT' to '1d10+6'? I just tested and got the same thing as you when the 'ON HIT' was 'd12 + 3' - no damage on the crit roll.  Then I changed it back to '1d12 + 3' and got damage on the crit roll. (I was clicking too fast and got a non-crit roll then clicked on the crit roll above to get one that had no damage for the crit) (This one I simply added back the '1' before the 'd12 + 3' and got damage on the crit)

Well I'll be a monkey's uncle, that worked!!. Weird glitch. Thanks for the help
