Looking for Functionality from FG Classic into FG Unity
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but I thought this was the best place to start.
Second I am coming from Matt Coville and while he has the Classic version I went with the more experimental Unity version. (and maybe I should go to Classic)
I am looking for a particular function. In the screen show below, I am looking for the ability in the character creation to roll x dice and have them be saved neatly as well as the text at the bottom where it drops the lowest of 4 and then does the adding.
I have tried searching for specific extensions but am at a loss since I am very "green." Had the product for a day now.
Thanks for any pointers or directions

H glamkey. welcome to FG.
Manage characters has been removed from Unity so you won't find that screen anywhere except in Classic.If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

Thanks for that!
As I understand it, there is a community of extensions out there. What I was wondering, is the that dice functionality replicated in an extension any where?
Thanks again for the rapid response.

There is an extension here that will do most of what you need

Hi glamkey! Welcome to the forums.
The drop functionality you're looking for is present in the Unity dice parser as a native expression, i.e, no need for an extension. (Classic still requires an extension, however)
For instance:
/die 4d6d1 will roll 4 six-sided dice and drop the lowest.
/die 5d6d2 will roll 5 and drop the lowest 2
There is a plethora of new possibilities in the Unity parser. Caveat: current rulesets may not be written to take advantage of them yet, though you can always type it manually (or add to a hotkey) and have it work.
There is a list of expressions in the Basic Guides for FGU.--
I'm so bassic
