Macro add to selected token Initiative and subtracting from target Initiative.

So I’m getting ready to start an exalted 3 rd ed game and the new combat mechanics have a withering attack that ups the attackers Initiative and subtracts from the targets Initiative if successful I have the macro for the roll working as intended and I can have it add to the selected tokens Initiative but not subtract from the targets Initiative. I was wondering if anyone found a way to do this? Current macro follows. /em @{selected|character_name} Preforms Withering Attack Against @{target|token_name} /roll {?{Dice}t[Exalted] + ?{Successes|0} - @{target|bar1},0d0}kh1

Unfortunately, the turn tracker is token based and requires a selected token in order to update tracker values (I learned this while trying to do something else fancy with the tracker a couple weeks ago). You could have it update the attacker's initiative count by simply adding &{tracker:+} to the end of your roll expression there (assuming you had the attacker selected). In order to do both of them, I think you'd have to have access to the API so that you could pass two token id's to the tracker instead of only 1.

See that’s what I was afraid of I knew about updating the attacker’s tracker but I was hoping I was just missing something and that you could modify the targets Initiative as well. I might just have to get the api. If I do I’ll have to make a whole host of stuff for the new combat system to reduce the amount of overhead as a lot of the combat actions that you do in exalted 3 rd ed modify your Initiative values.

If you do, check the repository (or check before you get it), because there may already be something made for it.

Another option would be since Ex3 doesn't use a tactical map and instead only uses distance ranges, you could have all tokens selectable by everyone. It would require some responsibility from the players and would require a couple extra button clicks compared to an API solution, but it would be free.

You could also throw a Command Button into your macro, to make it easier for the GM to adjust an NPC's initiative. e.g. [Success](!
 Target loses [[ ?{Initiative Adjustment|1} &{tracker:-} ]] Initiative!) or [Success](!
/desc @{selected|token_name} loses [[ ?{Initiative Adjustment|1} &{tracker:-} ]] Initiative!)
