Aside from now knowing how to do 5d6 and stuff like that I've got the jist. you have to do individual roll and total them... [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] = 19 for different dice, just change the number... [dice=8][dice=20][dice=100] notice it shows you what die you used underneath the result to add bonuses, just add them on ... for 1d20+3 [dice=20+3] [rand=05919498305334664793450577735378699464633440840825132187176671028] |

See I was kinda hoping it was just type in 3d6 and it would do it.  Now that I know that though I'll just do that. |

Also awesome is that it doesn't change if you edit or preview the post with the roll, so you can roll, then go back and see the result, and if you want to post a fail (or success, if appropriate, say damage if you know it's a strike, dodges notwithstanding) for fun, you can!

if we really wanted and someone setup time and effort easiest fix would be for example
3d6 = [dice=16+2]
4d6 = [dice=21+3]
2d4 = [dice=7+1]
and the likes if that helps you out. Only reason I do not use it is because, well actually I have no answer to that.
I used to use this method all the time on my graphics calculator to make characters and so know how to manipulate this type of program.[rand=6067127255127881110747566720065094093389961467883265501997117566]

On a side note yes I do know that this skips the law of averages and numbers will go to more extreme numbers.....but that is neither here nor there.

Looks like someboby broke the dicebot. So until I (or someone else) can find another code , we're back to the old way of doing things.
