This is a PF1E campaign using quite a few enhancements including the advanced character sheet. From the weapons tab of the actions sheet, one player is randomly having the wrong weapon rolled when clicking on the sword or lightning bolt icon. He has 3 weapons in his list, he is clicking on the last weapon and occasionally having the first weapon effect rolled. The player is sure he is clicking the correct icon. He is using a laptop with a touch pad. This is not happening to anyone else, doesn't happen all the time and does not happen when the I (GM) made attack rolls for a minute with his character while testing. No errors in chat or my logs.
Assuming this happens again next session, any suggestions for troubleshooting?
Thanks

Stuff like this is usually caused by an extension, though it could also be something touch pad or laptop related since he's the only one having a problem. If the player hasn't already done this, make sure he gets all the latest drivers for his laptop - especially anything related to his motherboard or input devices. He should also check his laptop meets the minimum specs for FGVTT.

He generally keeps his systems up to date but worth verifying. Will check on the specs.
The only other new change I failed to mention (sorry) was the addition of the metal dice pack to my group. I know one other user has performance issues due to his system. Could that use add a significant enough load to impact others in the peer to peer communication?

You could also try plugging in a mouse to the laptop to see if it's a trackpad issue; or related to perhaps an errant extra finger register on the trackpad.
