Dice rolls

Authors' note: Of the old MOD "Dicemod v0.8.8b" we kept only 2 skins, not a single line of that one has been used, everything has been rewritten from ground zero. An additional skin created in SVG has been added.

Are you a RPG enthousiast? A role playing master ? Then we've got just the rolls for you!
We have created a comprehensive dice roller extension that is flawlessly integrated into phpBB's native system.
Your users can throw dice within your forums and let the story continue in new directions.
All this while you as an Administrator are in control.

We have taken all precautions to make sure users can not manipulate their dice rolls into the desired outcome.
A custom PHP class was created to make sure all calculations are done “behind the scenes”.
And an additional way to gain more control over the individual rolls is done by mimicing the native attachment system.

A preview of some of the possibilities:
                  d6 or 1d   A 6 sided die
                            2d6   Two 6 sided dice
                      1d6+4   Roll a 6 sided dice and add 4 to the result
      2d10*4+1d20   Roll two 10 sided dice multiply by four, and roll one 20 sided die
2d10+4+2d20-L   Roll two 10 sided dice add four, and roll two 20 sided die, taking away the lowest of the two
                              d%   A percentile die - equivalent to d100
          dF or dF.2A   standard fudge dice - 2 thirds of each symbol
                           dF.1   A non-standard fudge dice - 1 positive, 1 negative, 4 blank
                          2d6!   Exploding dice - two 6 sided die, rolling again for each roll of the maximum value
                        2d6!!   Exploding & compounding dice - like exploding, but adding together into single roll
                       2d6!p   Penetrating dice - like exploding, but subtract 1 from each consecutive roll
                     2d6!!p   Penetrating & compounding dice - like exploding & compounding, but subtract 1 from each consecutive roll
                 2d6!>=4   Exploding dice, but only if you roll a 4 or greater - Also usable with compounding and penetrating dice
                     2d6>4   Dice pool - anything greater than a 4 is a success. Counts the number of successes as the total

I just wanted to say that I think that styling looks terrific!

Yes it does

good job 3Di/phpbb studio this has been long coming.

I am glad you like the ACP module.
Always a struggle to make something nice out of phpBB's default ACP

Who doesn't appreciate compliments on things done with true dedication?
Thank you from the Studio.

I can't stress too much how awesome it is to see this! Some friends have been wanting to experiment with newer games using custom dice sets, so the option to add other dice skins is especially great.

I've noticed something while playing around with it: when the BBCode to show an already existing roll is quoted or copied onto another page (doesn't seem to matter whether it's the next page within the same topic, or a different topic entirely), the roll results don't always display.

If there happens to be a "new" roll displayed on the topic page in question--shown inline in the post that originated the roll--then any other rolls quoted/copied on that page display perfectly.

But, if that's not the case (no "new" rolls are present on the page) it seems like the dice-display doesn't generate properly for the quoted rolls.

For example, instead of seeing

[4, 2, 4]+[6, 9] = 25
3d6 2d12: [ 4 2 4 ] + [ 6 9 ] = 25

you only see

3d6 2d12

I'm not quite savvy enough with javascript to tell whether there's an easy tweak for this.

Thank you!
Feel free to share some custom dice sets with us if you so like, you could send me a PM in case.

Confirmed. Thanks for feedback.

Bug reported here https://github.com/phpBB-Studio/DiceRolls/issues/1
We will take care of it as soon as we can.

This is fantastic!

How close is it to coming out of beta?
