5th Edition OGL damage rolls from char sheet and too many 3D dice

Love these sheets! Just one small problem getting my game set up: When I roll damage from a char sheet, for example "sword 1d6", a one d20 and three d6 3D dice appear on screen, but the roll result in the chat is fine (it looks like just one of the d6 rolls was chosen at random). For the life of me I can't figure out what this is or how to fix it! Anybody else have this problem?

Hey Ziff! Do you have advantage set to always roll, and auto damage rolls on?
Hi Franky, Everything set to never roll advantage, but auto roll damage and crits is on. But even when it isn't a crit the extra 2 dice roll.

Because it automatically rolls damage, the sheet rolls all possible damage dice (crits included) then it only displays the crit damage in the chat if the roll is actually a crit. It simply needs to know the crit damage just in case, and rolls it because of that. The Roll Template is just a fancy way of showing the information. The crit-related information in the Roll Templates determines whether the die roll is shown in the chat pane out-put but the Roll Templates do not have any logic which would allow it to *not* roll some of the dice in 3d.
Got it, thanks!
