[The One Ring 2e] Skill rolls macro

Hello, I’m new to the game, so apologies if this question is obvious or trivial. I’m currently building a campaign for The One Ring 2nd Edition. I know that to perform skill checks I can click the die button next to the relevant skill on the character sheet, but I’d also like to be able to perform some checks directly from the chat without having to open the sheet every time. The closest I’ve gotten is using /r @{pg-name|travel_roll} , but the only output I receive is: There was an error with your formula. Please try again. Is there a way to start a check from the chat?

Hi Mattia, some sheets have roll buttons that can be triggered by simply executing the roll's attribute name directly.  Such-as %{selected|some_skill}  I did a quick check on the One Ring 2ed sheet and it uses action buttons on the sheet to execute the skill rolls.  Action buttons are great for triggering sheetworker JavaScript to do "stuff" when the button is pressed.  Unfortunately action buttons cannot be executed from chat like roll buttons can.  There is some sheet author coding that can be used to mimic the behavior of a roll button (uses a hidden roll button) so you can drag/drop buttons to the macrobar and I believe execute from chat as well, but One Ring 2e sheet doesn't have that. ;-(  You might try making a request from the sheet's author(s) Bodo .

Oh thank you for the explanation! Regarding the request, is there a particular discussion/section where I should make it?

Each roll20 user account profile has a link to send a "Send a private message".  I would send a polite message to the author (there are actually something like 6+ authors listed for the sheet, but it looks like Bodo made the last update about 9 months)  Just explain what you would like to do and perhaps refer back to this thread.
