Roll again

#1 Post by Zhym »

I sometimes end up doing the same roll multiple times. For example, I might need to roll HP for more monsters than will fit in one macro, or roll attack & damage for a bunch of monsters. It'd be handy if I could repeat a roll with a button on the roll results page instead of hitting the "back" button and rolling from there.

Thanks!

You know I have often thought the same thing myself. I do similar in the one campaign I am running. Good suggestion.

Hmmmm good idea. Let me see if I can implement that. Should be fairly easy.

That was fast! But I'm not seeing the roll again button on my end.

Your reply was faster! As soon as I posted it, I found a bug and took it back down!

Still working at it... watch this thread for more info.

Ok, I think it's working now. Let me know if anything weird pops up.
For now, this won't let you quickly re-roll on the fly rolls. I realize that is important as well, but let's make sure it works in its current form before I attack that issue.

Thanks!

Nice! Tested it on a dead character of mine and that is pretty handy thanks ToniXX! :D

I tend to make lots of rolls as a DM when engaging in combat rounds, and the roll again feature is making it that much more easier! Thank you ToniXX.

I found another bug and had to pull the change. I haven't looked into it for a bit, but IIRC it was ending up a tougher proposition than I initially thought.
