Yeah, that is pretty much what I have been doing ToniXX, except that I've just been looking at the result on the dice rolling tab, and the manually transposing the result into my posts as "[1d6=5]", or whatever.

Thanks for the explanations.

I'm new to these parts, so I don't really know what the "current system" is.

Can you explain how you do now Nuke?

Thanks

Thanks for your input Rredmond. I know what you're saying; pretty much any style can be achieved already by clicking the desired combination of bold/italic/underline, font size, and font colour. In a game I run I have been doing exactly that for the last three years. That is; manually selecting the ...

I looked into it and the only way it could work if there were individual buttons for each tongue, as there is no way to add a pull down menu. It could be done with one button per language, but it might be tough to touch on all languages needed, and would clutter the posting page. In that case it mi...

It looks like each game already has a unique id; see here.

I wonder if the dice roller already keeps track of the number of rolls made for each game id somehow?

So it sounds like the trick would be modifying US Dice Roller to accept a game id as a parameter. If that were done, then each game could keep track of its own roll count. It wouldn't matter who clicked the [d20] button, the result would appear inline in their post, something like this: [roll d=20 p...

From my point of view it isn't important that dice rolls be linked to a particular character. All I'm looking for is a convenient way to roll dice while authoring posts, without going off to another site. If the game referee rolls all the dice, then cheating isn't an issue, unless you count referee ...

The "dialog" button is already a nice feature. A nice enhancement would be to extend this to support multiple languages, each with its own recognisable formatting. This could be implemented by adding a drop-down list of languages next to the "dialog" button so that when "dia...

I don't know if US already supports something like this, but a pretty compelling feature would be inline dice results. As a PBP ref I tend to roll all the dice and report the result to the players as part of my post -- something like " So and so attacks [1d20=15] and hits, causing [1d6=3] 3 hit...

Hi All, I started with Mentzer's Basic D&D set and progressed from there. I've played many D&Ds over the decades, and lots of other RPGs too. I enjoyed AD&D throughout my high school and university years, and then briefly played 2E and 3.5E after. I was dismayed with 4E and turned to the...
