Anything I can do to help with the roller? More than happy to test it. You know how good I am at spotting bugs. ;)

Coffee is in my home computer. Not ready for testing at the level you are thinking. Unless you want to tweak code.

Wouldn't hurt for me to look at the code if there's somewhere I can d/l (preferably) or look at it.

I can email it to you. But it will be a bit.

No rush. I'm just here playing games and waiting for a damned storm that's decided to camp out in the once-beautiful and now destroyed Bahamas.

Got the file, thanks.

I have a request to make of all of the players. When we get around to posting in a common IC thread please, please use the resize image tags in your posts. There is a huge difference in thread readability between

Image and this Image or better yet this Image
(534x800) and (267x400; half dimensions, quarter size) or (138x200; quarter dimensions, one-sixteenth size)

Quote my post to view the code. The tag itself is on the button bar with all of the other tags, and there is a mouse-over tooltip that shows you how to use it.

The beta dice roller is now up. You will have to manually read the result of the percentile die roll for the moment. but you only need to roll the xd10 and add your bonus. It also does not have all the special features that shado requested, but it is more useable than before.

Great! It should be fairly easy to have it automatically add [ spoiler] and [ /spoiler] to both sides, right (without the extra spacing)? That would save a lot of time posting the results of rolls.

Thank you. That should dramatically speed up the pace and reduce the tedium. Next step is to remember the field contents from roll to roll, and add spoiler tags.

Suggestion: allow the use to input skill level so that the roller can do the math for skill increases.

Later on the roller will need to factor in the rules for '1's and '0's.

Right now I've only approved to uses for these, but my hope is that they would be more like advantage and threats having a variety of uses. Because of that it would be impossible to program that into the roller. I could have it highlight that they have occurred out something like that though.

Are the checks for Observation the same as the Attack checks? (i.e. Attack at 50 meters is a DC20, 100 meters is a DC 30)

On the range they are. The targets are not high detail. I wanted to keep it simple. That will not always be the case though.

Ok thanks I'll start with the 50 meter mark then.

LOL. There is now a link to the dice roller at the top of the site, just like for the other rollers.

Am I making all the rolls for the range at one time or are you letting me know what he is aiming at?

You can make all of the rolls at once. All the targets are enemies, it doens't matter what their description is. This set is to introduce the aiding mechanic and to help you increase some of your weaker skills.
