I know! You're forcing me to keep checking on the forum instead of finishing up the last bit needed for the dice roller before I hand it over to Hartless...

I was going to get that done tonight too

1 even had to call in my assistant DM - he's fluent in Gnoll and opportunity attacks (against tennis balls)

One last check-in, then back to coding I go. Here's a short changelog for what I did in version 1.1 (versus version 1.0 which I actually released a couple of days ago but Hartless was tied up with other things at the time):

• Play-by-post helper utility. This lets you save a post's rolls to the database so that the previously-rolled values are kept between views/previews/edits.
• New rolls can be added to the end of a post, but if an existing roll is removed, modified, or rearranged then the pbp helper will indicate that the post has been tampered with (anti-cheat mechanism). The only way to remove the tamper warning is to set the rolls back to the way they were before (at which point they'll take on whatever values they were at before). No mulligans.
• A new macro that lets you view the results of previous rolls within the post so you can act intelligently on them, such as testing if the previous roll was a crit and then automatically rolling critical damage versus regular damage. A new if() function goes along with this macro in order to accomplish this.
• The reroll() function (and its friends rerollOnce/rerollN) can now be applied to grouped rolls, meaning you can reroll an entire group of dice depending on its final value in addition to rerolling individual dice. For example 6{{4d6dl1}}rr<10 or equivalently 6{{4d6.dropLowest(1)}}.reroll(<10) will roll 6 sets of 4d6, dropping the lowest roll for each set, and rerolling all groups that total to less than 10. (The double {{ is needed to force the reroll to evaluate the total of the 4d6dl1 rather than looking at each individual die)

Very cool!!1!!

I like-ey! As a member of two play by posts, I'm very excited.

psst, wrong thread

i knowz dat thing

it's just fun :)

One persons fun is another person's folly.

That's two people in total, right?

They always say three's company...

Five is definitely too many

Seven dwarves are too many for a tavern owner to handle?

I hope that tavern owner has Eight-y barrels of ale (at least) for those dwarves.
