You are probably best off using snippets/text descriptions and NOT modifiers if you want it to be "dynamic" and match whatever the character's current walking speed is. If the character's race does not have an innate swimming speed, it will not show a swim speed value and just the rule below about swimming/climbing being 1/2 speed. It would be up to the user and DM to remember to use your subclass's extra rule. It would show up on the character sheet how many feats whose rules do not have specific "coding" for things like this.
i'm talking about, when you create a race you can put in a walking speed and a swimming speed. then. create a trait called "speed" with no actions, options, modifier, nor creatures
Circling back to this - there IS s way to set a modifier that grants a movement speed equal to the character's walking speed.
Add a modifier with the following:
I'm trying this now, but after using this method my character sheet doesn't list a swimming speed, and if I force it to display the walking speed it says "0".
In order to get a speed equal to your walking speed, you should use a modifier, type set, then innate speed Swimming). Once that's done, do not write anything in the fixed value, or in any other boxes, and it should work if I remember correctly.

Hi,

I would love to know the answer to this as well; I tried programming it into one but couldn't find a way for it to accept 'walking speed' as a value.

D&D Beyond FoundersI'm not aware of any way of making a dynamic calculation for something like this.
The snippet codes that you may have seen mentioned are designed to be used in the plain text snippet field.

i think you put the speed in the bars and then make a trait with the name "Speed" i think this will work i'll tell you if it does.
yep it works
Edit: nevermind, see Stormnight's reply below.
