Hello, I'm a long time roll20 user, brand new pro account trying to create a custom sheet for a game I want to playtest. The core dice mechanic involves rolling an amount of dice equal to a character's Attribute value plus the value of a relevant Skill and then checking for successes (default target number 4+).
I've taken the sheet template recommended for beginners and am messing with the html to try and accomplish this. The roll button next to any Attribute should be something like roll= (X)d6>4 where X is the Attribute value. For a Skill check, it should be roll= (X+Y)d6>4 where X is the Attribute value and Y is the Skill value.
Any help in getting the right syntax on a roll to accomplish this? I have no problem messing with this sheet template to define the Attributes and Skills I want, but I can't get the rolls to work.
Bonus question would be how to make the roll query the target number. So ideally the full formula would be roll= (X+Y)d6>(Z) (X=Attribute value, Y=Skill value, and Z is queried when the button is clicked.
Thanks!
