When I make a roll from the character sheet, The formula displayed in the hover over is correct, but the final result is wrong. For example, in the roll above, the final result should have been -2 (12 - 4 +0 - 10). Any idea why this is happening?

you have a curly brace that got into the roll somehow. The roll parser doesn't know how to handle a curly brace, and so just ignores everything from that point on

Eagle Eye Scott for the win! Thanks for your help, that was driving me nuts. Is there a way to get translation notation to work within roll comments?

unfortunately, translations don't work in the roll tool tips. You could use getTranslationByKey to get the translation value for the person sending the roll and insert that into the roll (if you're sending the roll via startRoll). But, of course that will only really be better if everyone (or at least most) in the game speak the same language.
