Roll Stats & Total them?

Is it possible to roll the 6 basic D&D stats, using 4d6k3 and then get a total at the bottom? Here is an example of a working macro that rolls the stats. I just want the total to print at the bottom for easy comparison to other characters. &{template:default} {{name= Character Generation 4d6k3}} {{Strength= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Dexterity= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Constitution= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Intelligence= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Wisdom= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Charisma= [[4d6k3]]}}

You can't do it as a macro - macros dont support saving result of one roll to apply to another total, so you cant total up the rolls and report them as individual rolls. It's one or the other - which is useless for your purpose. You could do it as an API script.

Here's a script to do this for you. Call it with !sumstatrolls -- in place of &{template:default} So your command would be !sumstatrolls --{{name= Character Generation 4d6k3}} {{Strength= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Dexterity= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Constitution= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Intelligence= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Wisdom= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Charisma= [[4d6k3]]}} Here's the script /*     Roll a bunch of stats and total them. Use this syntax:     !sumstatrolls --{{name= Character Generation 4d6k3}} {{Strength= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Dexterity= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Constitution= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Intelligence= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Wisdom= [[4d6k3]]}} {{Charisma= [[4d6k3]]}}      */ on("ready", () => {      const template = '&{template:default}', sumheader = 'Total Points',     processInlinerolls = function (msg) {         if (_.has(msg, 'inlinerolls')) {             return _.chain(msg.inlinerolls)                 .reduce(function(previous, current, index) {                     previous['$[[' + index + ']]'] = current.results.total || 0;                     return previous;                 },{})                 .reduce(function(previous, current, index) {                     return previous.replace(index, current);                 }, msg.content)                 .value();         } else {             return msg.content;         }     },     totalInlinerolls = function(msg) {         let total = 0;         if (_.has(msg, 'inlinerolls')) {             total = msg.inlinerolls.reduce((total,current) => total + current.results.total ||0,0);         };         return total;     };          on("chat:message", msg_orig => {         if(msg_orig.type == "api" && (msgMatch = msg_orig.content.match('!sumstatrolls --'))){             const msg = processInlinerolls(msg_orig);             const sum = totalInlinerolls(msg_orig);              let output = msg.split('--')[1].trim();             output = `${template} ${output} {{${sumheader}=${sum}}}`;             sendChat("", output);         }     }); });
Wow this worked like a charm! Thanks for the above and beyond help!

For the benefit of non-pro users who can't use GiGs more elegant solution, here is an ugly but serviceable way of seeing the total of the attributes... players can then hover over the result to see the individual rolls. Just in case any future forum surfers with the same need come this way :) Attributes: [[ [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Strength] + [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Dexterity] + [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Constitution] + [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Intelligence] + [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Wisdom] + [[ 4d6k3 ]] [Charisma] ]]
This is clever, and definitely works in a pinch if  you don't have access to the API solution. Nice!
