i was trying to create a homebrew item that added a bonus die to Initiative. I looked through existing items, and found the Sword of Kas, which includes a 1d10 initiative bonus. So I copied that into my item, but it doesn't work as I'd expect (which is to automatically roll the extra die and include it when initiative is rolled).
I then equipped the Sword of Kas on a character as a test, and it also failed.to add the bonus, so I'm not sure how it's supposed to work. any advice is appreciated.

Currently the DDB roller is unable to add extra die rolls automatically, only fixed values.

Thanks. At least i know it's not some obvious thing *I* am missing. :)
Is this still broken?
If by “broken” you mean never implemented in the first place, then yes.
