[5e Community] Adding modifiers to rolls done in the class section of character sheet?

December 18 (7 years ago)

H all,

I'll preface this by saying that I'm using this character sheet. I don't think it's the OGL one, it's the other one.

I've worked out how to get the character sheet class section to roll dice when I click use, but I wanted to know how I would get modifiers added to the rolls too.

For example, I want to add my Con modifier to my Goliath Trait ability, so I've tried [[1d12+CON]], [[1d12]+[CON]], [[1d12+constitution_modifier]] and others but it doesn't want to work.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for this please? Would be really handy to be able to roll everything with macros or tokens rather than flicking through every page of my character sheet :)

Thanks!

I've figured it out!

I worked out that inside the double square brackets I needed to add @{<MY NAME>|constitution_mod} to be able to output the modifier.

THEN I figured out that if I'm doing it directly from my own character sheet, I only need to do @{constitution_mod}. This has saved me so much time from having to click use, then roll the dice and do the maths for it.

My last question would be this. Is there a way to output the number rather than the maths behind getting to the number with @{constitution_mod}? When I hover over the result in chat, it gives me 18-20/2. I was just wondering if it could just output 4?

EDIT:

Don't worry, figured this one out too :D

[[1d10 + [[@{constitution_mod}]]]]

Basically, put another set of double square brackets around the modifier that you want to use and it won't output the maths in the tooltip :)

i am not even at the level to design and mod a sheet so well done.
