Dice roller functionality... subtraction?
Posted: Tue Nov 28, 2017 12:35 am
Ok, so by preference, I like to set up attack macros so they spit out the AC you hit. Like if your THAC0 is 10, roll [1d20-10] to get the AC you hit.
This works fine for ascending AC, but I can seem to do it for descending AC... if thac0 is 19, I can't do [19-1d20].
I also see that I can do [2d6k1] to select the higher of 2 d6 rolls, but there's no macro command to select the lower die roll. I thought about [7-2d6k1] but ran into the first problem I mentioned.
Now, don't get me wrong, I can totally work around this, but wonder if it's an easy thing to add, or if I'm missing a trick?
Eta: Kicking it around a bit, I see I can do one operation... add or subtrace a constant, or multiply by a constant. What I was looking for could be done by allowing multiple modifiers, muliply, then add, for example, but this gives an error.
