Issues with Melee Attacking

This will take a lot of typing to explain my problem... Here we go: ^^^I am trying to set up my longsword for attacks. I thought I had everything put in correctly. But, I keep getting the error message (on the right) when I try to roll the weapon. So, I thought I would open the "Macro Text" option, with the hopes of sorting my issue out. So possibility A: I miss filled out something, and the code is unable to pull my "ATK" and "DMG" numbers. (I noticed the grey boxes have nothing inside them, and I'm thinking there should probably be pre-calculated numbers there.) ^^^ This is before I touched anything. So I read through, and realized the error is occurring on the third line. After simply removing the extra brackets from: [[(@{crit-target}) + @{total-attack}]] to [(@{crit-target}) + @{total-attack}] You can see instead of an error, I get some sort of action. Unfortunately, you can see this hasn't fixed the problem. I put the brackets back for now, but I dont know what could be wrong. Is it the code itself? Did I forget to put something in?

Since this is a character sheet problem rather than a bug I have moved it to the character sheets forum. Which character sheet are you using? (It looks like Sam's Pathfinder character sheet.)

ok i had the same problem, basically you have to put in 0 in attack modifiers and dmg modifiers because if you leave it empty it wont work, also put in the dmg type just to be sure, basicly all of the boxes need to be filled in, and in the macro box you can just delete the notes part it just takes up space :) Hope i helped.
