Can Sheetworkers roll initative?

Hi! I needed to use sheetworkers for a bunch of if scenarios when rolling, and I'm not sure how to make the result of a sheetworker roll count as an initiative roll to be sent to the initiative tracker. The roll is [[[[floor(@{gracetotal})]]d6]]. Thanks for any help!

If you are doing sheet worker calculations and want to send a roll to chat (which includes initiative rolls), you'll need to use Custom Roll Parsing. I don't know about anyone else, but I cannot guess what that would look like without seeing your existing sheet worker. An initiative roll is just like any other roll sent to chat, just add &{tracker} to the end of the roll.

This is the output when I add &{tracker} to the end: This is the main roll: startRoll("&{template:init} {{name=Test}} {{rollinit=[[[[@{gracetotal}]]d6s]] &{tracker}}}", (results) => { This is the full script: <script type="text/worker">     on('clicked:init', (info) => {           getAttrs(["gracetotal","gracereroll"], function(values) {                 startRoll("&{template:init} {{name=Test}} {{rollinit=[[[[@{gracetotal}]]d6s]] &{tracker}}}", (results) => {             const total = results.results.rollinit.result;             });         if(values.gracereroll == "1") {             startRoll("&{template:initreroll} {{name=Reroll}} {{rollinitreroll=[[1d6]]}}", (results) => {             const reroll = results.results.rollinitreroll.result;         });}         });     }); </script>

Picture didn't appear, the output said: Initiative 13&{tracker}

&(tracker} only works when you have a token selected, and you have to place it in the roll , like this {{rollinit=[[[[@{gracetotal}]]d6s &{tracker}]] }} I don't see what you are using a sheet worker for there. What are you trying to do?

To be clear, unless you're doing something else, you don't need a sheet worker. A simple rollbutton would replace your current action button: <button type="roll" name="roll_init" value="&{template:init} {{name=Test}} {{rollinit=[[[[@{gracetotal}]]d6s &{tracker}]] }}">Initiative</button> <button type="roll" name="roll_init_reroll" value="&{template:initreroll} {{name=Reroll}} {{rollinitreroll=[[[[@{gracetotal}]]d6s &{tracker}]] }}">Initiative</button> I wonder whyyou are using two different rolltemplats there. It seems like you could probably be using the same template unless the rolls are presented very differently.

Worked! Thank you!

Rerolls are conditional in this system, and I'm looking to make a character sheet that automates/simplifies the game process of a Hollow Knight TTRPG system. So I only want rerolls to occur & appear in chat if a player meets the condition to reroll.

It looks like you are relying on them pressing a "reroll" button, so it seems to me like you could just replace that with a button that actually does the reroll.
