use a text attribute in a macro

Hello, I created a character called "bow" with an numeric attribute called init. If I issue the command @{bow|init} I get back the attribute value. Then I created another character named "tac", with a text attribute called weapon, containing the text"bow" If I issue the command @{selected|weapon} I get back the text attribute value (bow). But when I try to launch the command @{@{selected|weapon}|init} comes back the errore  No character was found for '@{selected'  Ivan Master (GM): bow Is it possible to do such an operation? Where am I wrong the syntax? Can anyone help me? thank you very much!

This isnt valid @{@{selected|weapon}|init} When you launch a macro, it looks at every attribute call (@{Init}) at once and retrieves all their values. So with @{@{selected|weapon}|init}, it looks for an attribute called "@{selected|weapon}|init" which obviously does not exist, and so it fails. You cannot build an attribute call up from parts - it must always be complete, because attributes will be accessed before any processing in the macro is done.
