So I’ve used the Psi Warrior and Battle Master to type the layout for a dice pool based casting Blood Hunter subclass. I keep going back and forth to make sure I have it set up the same way and it all looks good. In the character sheet under the actions tab everything looks fine, though the {{scalevalue}}{{modifier:int#signed}} just displays 1d8+3, according to the values and modifiers it’s pulling from. I tried making it say {{2*scalevalue}} to see if that make it two? But I think I’m doing it wrong and can’t find out how to make this change.
also, anywhere other than the character sheet actions tab, such as the edit character leveling page or selecting the subclass abilities I’ve made to display the pop up box on the right side of the screen, it shows the “{{scalevalue}}{{modifier:int#signed}}”. Not the values I’m attempting to pull in. I’ve attempted to edit the actions where you select the damage types and functions of the actions with the drop down boxes to where it is set to 1d4, the base dice level, and that didn’t change much.
I’d like to make it so it can say 2d8+3 or 3d10+4, changing based on the scaled values as I have them set to progress, the amount of truce the specific ability/action uses I have in the Action editor and the players intelligence Modifier.
That's odd - you should be able to continue with simple calculations like that with snippets. Can you post a link to your homebrew subclass? It doesn't need to be public for a mod such as myself to view it.
Oh okay makes sense. Is there a way for them to scale in any way? Or do I just provide a more loose description like ‘one hemocraft dice plus your Intelligence modifier’?
and is there a way in the snippet code to allow multiple face to display so it would say ‘2d8 or 3d8’ instead of always saying 1 dice?
Unfortunately as it stands there isn't a way to have the text scale automatically - as with the official content you would need to provide a looser description (exactly as you mentioned in your example).
Unfortunately you wouldn't be able to reflect both values via that snippet code - it'll only reflect the value at that level.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
The character sheet finally synced with the edits I made. {{2*scalevalue}} doesn’t work at all hahaha.

D&D Beyond StaffSo the issue here is that snippet codes don't work in the text boxes (ie descriptions) itself - they only work in the snippet fields.
Oh okay makes sense. Is there a way for them to scale in any way? Or do I just provide a more loose description like ‘one hemocraft dice plus your Intelligence modifier’?
and is there a way in the snippet code to allow multiple face to display so it would say ‘2d8 or 3d8’ instead of always saying 1 dice?
