-------
Creating/adding your own new rolls
The first thing to do is use a roll from /scripts (as opposed to /desktop/scripts) as your base Template. Use one that is close already in usage as your template.
1. In your /scripts/manager_custom_mynewroll.lua roll set the Roll type:
local sCmd = "mynewroll";
2. Include this new script in /base.xml
<script name="CustomDiceMyNewRoll" file="scripts/manager_custom_mynewroll.lua" />
3. Create a new Button Icon for the roll and store in /graphics/icons folder
4. Define in /graphics/graphics_icons.xml
<icon name="mynewroll" file="graphics/icons/button_mynewroll.png" />
5. Setup the auto Icon definition in /campaign/template_campaign.xml
Add to the <template name="button_rolls_type"> in 3 places - 2 as mynewroll (icons and values) and 1 as MyNewRoll (tooltips).
Add to the <template name="button_rolls"> in 3 places - 2 as mynewroll (icons and values) and 1 as MyNewRoll (tooltips).
6. Add to /campaign/record_cas.xml
Add to the <string_column name="clichatcommand"> just above the elseif == nil statement
elseif sCommand == "mynewroll" then
nodeWin.getChild("rollstype").setValue("mynewroll");
7. Add it to the /dicehelp command via /scripts/dicehelp.lua
Add it to the function createHelpMessage()
And then package up those changed files and send to me (with permission to use/include/share) so that it can be included in the next version of MoreCore and you wont have to redo your changes after the next update.

The exported dice strings Rolls is pure genius! Now if you could do the same with Abilities I may not need another ruleset ever again!
The abilities features (name and description) are kinda included in the MoreCore Rolls. You can just have an ability without a roll. The advantage of this is when you use it from Rolls it will report that the PC or NPC is using that Roll/Ability.... The downside is that there is only so much room on that front page and I have pretty much squeezed every little bit out of that front page layout. I added a couple of pixels to the main rolls and modifiers windows and reduced all the padding etc.
Im pretty sure I could add the export capability and a library for Abilities if you would prefer to continue using them....

I suppose one could use the rolls and add the flavor text but leave the dice string blank if it was a move, feat or ability that doesn't require to roll dice. Didn't think of that.

Here is a little thing that took me a while to figure out:
To make one of the "Rolls" items work, hit return after the dice string. I don't know how long it took me to figure that out.
damned
November 8th, 2016, 04:18
Where are you seeing this jeffepp? Within the Roll window there is no requirement to hit enter. You can tab into another field, click into another field, close the window or just roll while the window is still open and they should all work...
Trenloe
November 8th, 2016, 04:20
I'm guessing this is just that you have to exit the field so that the data is saved?

Eh, now it's working fine. It might be an initial setup thing. I would but the dice string into the dice string box, close the window, and hit the "Roll" button, and would get an error. After fiddling with it for a while, I wondered if it needed something to end the string, like you have in the attack pane, with the comma. So, I hit return, putting another line below the initial, and it worked! Now, all of the ones I have made work without the extra line.

See the "Dice Strings" section of the MoreCore documentation: https://www.diehard-gaming.com/mchelp.html

Basically, they are a little bit of code, that will allow some kind of dice roll. For example, a standard roll of 2d8 + 2 would be:
/dice 2d8+2
There is a list in the chat window when you open a MoreCore campaign, and on the website listed in the first post. There are a few things that they can do.
This allows you to program the "Rolls". I haven't experimented to see if you can combine them, yet.

Sorry jeffepp you cant combine them but you could program one that combines the rolls you need.
Hi chadhill
Rolls Library
Rolls are one of the key enhancements in the current MoreCore release. The GM can create a library of Rolls that can be drag and dropped to PC and NPC sheets.
Rolls have three fields - Name, String and Description. The Name will appear in the Chat Window when the Roll is used. The String is the Dice String that will be used. This may be left blank or you may use the strings below. The Descriptions is purely for reference purposes.
Drop Lowest: /rolld #d#x# (roll #dice drop # lowest)
Count Successes: /successes #d#x# (roll #dice# and count those equal or higher than #)
Exploding Dice: /edie #d# (roll #dice and explode)
RollAnd Keep: /rnk #k# (roll #d10 explode and keep highest #)
Roll and Order: /orderresult #d# (roll #d# and order results)
Standard Roll: /die #d#+# (roll #dice and add #)
Powered by the Apocalypse: /pbta #d#+# (roll #dice and add #)
Success/Fail Dice: /sfdice #d#s#f# (roll #dice, count #s[Success] and #f[Fail])
World of Darkness: /woddice #s# (roll #d10, count dice above #, subtract 1s, use Modifier box for additional Difficulty modification)
I just realised that the Rolls button on the sidebar isnt loading on startup of a new campaign. Ill fix that for the next update. Click on Library and tick MoreCore Rolls to activate the Rolls dialog. You dont need this but it does allow you to export rolls to a mod when you have them in here.
You can create all sorts of roll strings in the Character Sheet using Rolls and the 4 spaces defined for them.

I know I must be doing something wrong, I copied the dice string verbatim and replaced the "#" with numbers, and I am still getting an error message or no result at all. I am trying to enter a simple 3d6 attribute roll but having a little bit of a kiniption in figuring it out. This is the right string correct " /die #d#+# "? I have the "Rolls" window and have tried creating a roll there, drag and drop that button into the Character sheet; I have tried creating a roll directly from the Character Sheet, it all come up with the same error: "Script Error: [string "button_roll"]:1: attempt to concatenate local 'sParams'(a nil value)"

Can you provide screen shots? Give actual examples of the strings you're using - and provide details of the error messages.
Also, try running the command in the chat window first: e.g. /die 3d6 to make sure you have the base format right.

Thanks, I knew it was something simple, I was missing a space, trial and error in the chat window found it. I have no idea what all these characters mean, I just type what I see someone else has done and try that, so my trial and error process takes a while, I have to try every possible combination for each character, like the [B], what does that mean? does it do something?

That's the problem I was having, earlier. Somehow, the parser needs something to end the first run of the first string. After that, everything works. In my case, I hit enter, creating a new line in the Dice String box. It's very probable that most people did this automatically, so never saw the problem. I haven't had as much free time in the last week or two, at least in large enough blocks, to do much with this.

Hey chadhill whilst you absolutely can use the rolls from the command line (all of them in the command line will also accept a description) they main benefit for my way of thinking is that you can create these rolls/strings in a Library (see Rolls campaign tool) and drag and drop them onto character sheets. So if they have common rolls you can do them with a single click from the character sheet instead of typing them out each time.

Terminate, as in giving an ending point, also known as a terminator. In the attacks section, each item is terminated with a comma, indicating that the item is done, and that anything following will be a different item. Apparently, the dice string parser needs a terminator at the end of the first string it processes, in this case, a return character. I don't know enough about the programming of FG to say why.

See /rollon here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Chat_Commands (It's not a deodorant!)
It doesn't work in MoreCore.
This would be very handy, especially for those RPGs that use tables (e.g. DCC, which is full of them), as a roll on the specific table could be directly linked into the character sheet (via the /rollon command) and a roll on the table done as an ability check, attack, damage, critical result, etc., etc., etc..

Soooooo.... after much chasing of my tail and actually knowing the answer but failing to think and track it all the way through....
MoreCore will shortly be able to support 2 new /commands being
/mod [number]
/rollon [table name] <-c [column name]> <-d [NdN+N]> <-hide>
These are not new commands but their support in the Rolls feature is new. This actually solves items 1, 2 and 3 on my current wishlist too.
I havent posted this updated version just yet as I think it needs something else for it to really make sense.
Where I dont think this will work quite so well for you Mask_of_winter is that the /rollon command does not utilise the Modifiers. If /rollon also accepted the Modifiers input then that would work very well for you but that looks like it is well beyond my ability.

Hola good people. MoreCore has been updated today to 1.32 with the net new feature of being able to save Modifiers (/mod) and Table Rolls (/rollon) in the Rolls Library and drag and drop them on to Character Sheets. This has meant I have changed the Character Sheet from 4 Rolls and 2 Modifiers sections to 6 Rolls sections that can be used however you like.
Check back regularly for updates.
Also check the MoreCore Themes page.

All sections will scroll if you have more entries than will fit in the visible space.
I think there is room for 45 visible entries and you can make the page longer which will expand the lower 3 panels automatically.

It is a brand new game currently on Kickstarter. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1105356930/city-of-mist-a-noir-rpg-of-modern-day-legends?ref=nav_search
You can download the full starter kit from RPGNow for free: https://www.rpgnow.com/browse.php?keywords=city+of+mist&x=0&y=0&author=&artist=&pfrom=&pto=
Most of that is included in the Fantasy Grounds conversion that Imiri and I put together here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?35156-MoreCore-City-Of-Mist-Starter-Set
It is a Powered by the Apocalypse game so the primary dice mechanic is 2d6 + modifiers. Many PbtA games uses only the 2d6 and others use all the dice (like Dungeonworld does for weapon damage). So far I have only used 2d6 in City of Mist but who knows... :)
At this stage the theme part of this is only thematic - it doesnt change any features of MoreCore but I have a couple of additional tweaks I am likely to add when time permits.
So far the game itself is quite good. It has elements of a lot of popular games and with the easy mechanics of PbtA but all very much with its own flavour. Investigation and action combine for a good story.
Weve built a full reference manual (starter set only) and full drag and drop moves/themes (starter set only) and including pre-gens and an adventure.

Hi FXguy Fantasy Grounds doesnt have as good a dice rolling options as some other platforms. It has crazy cool dice but they mostly only do /die #d#+# and thats all. The rest of the dice rollers in FG were coded by other community members and integrated into MoreCore. You would need to have a LUA understanding (or some other coding ability which you can turn towards learning the LUA examples) and create your own extension based off the example.
Are you saying that in Hackmaster when you roll a d20 and get a 20 it will explode rolling one more d6 or will it keep exploding the d6s on 6s as well?
If you can let e know Ill point you to the right file and you can have a go at hacking it and creating a /hack20 roller and we can include it back in MoreCore...
Up for the challenge?
FXguy
November 27th, 2016, 03:41
Are you saying that in Hackmaster when you roll a d20 and get a 20 it will explode rolling one more d6 or will it keep exploding the d6s on 6s as well?
Almost. HackMaster calls it "Penetration Dice," but that the next roll is -1. If you were to roll d4p, it would mean you roll a d4-1. If it's another 4, then roll again, and the following number is -1. For example, you roll d4p and get a 4, 4, and a 2. The result would be 8, because 4 (the full score)+3 (that's 4-1)+1 (that's 2-1).
With a d20, you roll 20, then roll d6-1. If a 6 is rolled, than another d6-1, and so on. With d100, you roll d20-1 as the penetration dice.
Sure, I'd be up to the task, to be included in MoreCore. I know a lot of people who are holding out on FG because they use the Roll20 macros to get the results. This could bring a lot of HM players over.

November 27th, 2016, 11:42
Hi FXguy - this script contains two dice handlers in the one script so you are going to need to filter out the rnk stuff first and then look at the remaining edie code and see if you can build the penetration die.
Whilst this script is not in the best format for inclusion in MoreCore we can code it in ok. edie is the current exploding die so its the best one to work with.... probably...
morecore_ikael_dicemechanics.lua
An example of one that is fully prepped to be dropped straight into MoreCore is morecore_ianmward_pbta.lua
Follow one or the other script as closely as you can in terms of structure so as to make it as easy as possible to include.
And... thank you and good luck!

Hi, I am trying to make my damage dice explode, so I put " /edie #d#" string into my character sheet, but it does not read as exploding, is there a difference between the chat box syntax and the pushbutton roll syntax or something, or does this simply not work for the linked rolls?
chadhill you should be using the MoreCore ruleset (v1.33 is the current version) and you should not have a MoreCore Extension loaded (unless its one of the MoreCore themes I have posted in another thread).
You should see in the startup messages in chat where it lists the dice strings.
jeffep reported an anomaly where he had to press enter on the dice string field after filling it in on the very first entry but I cant replicate.
Anyway you can either in the Rolls tool or in any of the 6 Sections on the Character Sheet, create a new Roll. Give it a name, add the Roll in and optionally add a description. The Name and Roll will be used in the actual roll.
It would look something like this:

So... I added (with some amazing help from ianmward) support for the Modiphius 2d20 system today, plus the ability to have Ability libraries, drag and drop Abilities and exportable Abilities plus a couple more minor tweaks.
The 2d20 uses the following syntax:
/rollunder 2d20x14
where 14 is the Ability score. This system counts the number of results equal to or less than the target score. This system also allows you to add additional dice for Skills and Focuses which you can add using the Modifier box or Rolls. This works especially well in MoreCore as these can all be added to your Character Sheet and this method also adds the descriptions to the rolls.

Thats right. MoreCore is a generic ruleset designed to allow you to play lots of other games. We add various rollers to accommodate more games. For example adding that dice roller would allow you to play (at least) 5 new games (Conan, Infinity, Star Trek, John Carter, Mutant Chronicles) with no new programming. It has dice rollers for World of Darkness style games, for Powered by the Apocalype style games etc etc and others can contribute new rollers to support a game system they want to run.
Here is a character sheet from City of Mist.
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=16751&d=1480820575
All of these moves/skills/abilities are clickable, draggable, exportable etc. You can click those with +/- symbol to add Modifiers (including teh modifier value and a descriptor) and then a roll to perform the roll. It accepts targeting info too.
You can also build (very simply) whole new themes that expand it further - here is the theme for City of Mist:

The Conan Kickstarter was on of the big ones of this year. I think it did over $300k. I dont play all these games but I like to see people playing the games they want to and doing it on FG :)
Ive had a long running debate about more rulesets = more players but with so many game systems out there and the required effort for building a new ruleset and maintaining it I have decided to try to make MoreCore do as much as possible in a generic way. Full rulesets will still (usually) be better for specific games but most game systems will not ever see a dedicated ruleset.
I run D&D, Call of Cthulhu, Castles & Crusades, Dungeon World, Maelstrom and now City of Mist. I play in a couple of others but there just isnt enough time for most people to play too many different systems.

It appears I screwed up how the modiphius mechanic works.
The /rollunder mechanic is not correct for 2d20 games so I will redo in 1.35
The mechanic is actually
roll 2d20 and count results under attribute+skill
additionally count results under your focus
This provides 0-4 possible successes from 2d20

Hi Yogel - no - there is no tutorial on this. You would need to know or learn some LUA or hack at the code in the existing files and test. Dice rollers are much more involved than a theme extension. Sorry.

Hi chadhill delete any copies of MoreCore.pak in your rulesets folder.
New versions of a ruleset will always have the same name (this is for all ruleset.pak files).
Once you load the campaign it will tell you the version number in the chat window.
The current build starts with
MoreCore Ruleset (v1.34 20161203).
immediately after the logo.
Ok. I deleted MoreCore.pak and reloaded from the first post here, I found the "v1.34 20161203", nothing changed. Did the Mod function get removed from the character sheets? The only function I have is "Roll" (which is totally AWESOME!!, bye the way. I use the first column to record Attributes and the roll feature as an Attribute Save). I would like to use one of the columns for skill/feat modifiers, but the function is not showing anymore.
Also I have loaded all the DOEs and they all work fine except for the sound ext., it works fine in my other rulesets just not MoreCore, has anyone else noticed this?

I am sorry I do not know how to send you a "screen shot", but on the character sheet, MoreCore Tab, within the 6 "editable roll screens" the only function they have is rolls now, when I first uploaded MoreCore.pak (the very first time), the two far right widows were for modifiers, they are no longer. The only function in any of those windows now is "roll".
The DOE:Sound works fine with all other .paks, but in the four MoreCore.paks I have created the sound is the only DOE that is a dead stick(that is nothing happens when I click the sound Icons), I can create sounds just the same but nothing plays. So it is the same functionality, up until the play function. I think it just doesn't connect to the website, even if I have Syrinscape open it wont play.

Hey chadhill in the chat window you will see a link to the Help file.
We really improved the Rolls feature and they now accept:
Rolls include /die /pbta /successes /wod and many others
Mod anything starting with /mod and a +/1 value
Tables reference a table with a /rollon command
Chat if you leave the Dice String field empty it will just issue a description to chat like: Declan uses Investigation without a roll
You will see that the icons also change :) Rolls/Mods/Tables/Chat
You can combine Mods with Rolls - you do one or more Mods first and then you do your Roll. It will combine them all in the description so you can see what made up the roll.
The DOE Sound has been reported to Dulux_Oz earlier but I dont know where its at just yet. Ill follow up.

Use the /export function as well to export them to a library module so you can re-use in later campaigns.
This is just a little add-on but makes a lot of difference if you like to get all the data in so its always available.
We added the same for Abilities as well - these dont roll or anything but are good for building up your reference materials.

Not necessary, chadhill, as the file you download will have the same name as the one you are replacing, but, it doesn't hurt anything either. You should expect to be asked if you want to replace the old file with the new. If you aren't, then I would investigate.

It is best to remove or rename the old one.
If you have unpacked an earlier one to see how it works or make changes you will need to delete that one or rename it to something else as unpacked rulesets get used first.
Let me know what you are using it for.

And just a question do Fate dice work in MoreCore strings?

December 22nd, 2016, 05:55
Hi chadhill,
FG compartmentalises lots of things.
You have Rulesets (generally .pak files) containing all the smarts, Modules (generally .mod files) containing pre-prepared content like the Players Handbook or the Lost Mines of Phandelver, Extensions (generally .ext files) containing codes to tweak/modify/extend your ruleset and Campaigns containing all your game stuff - characters, story, notes, images etc etc.
Download MoreCore.pak and replace your existing file with the new one. That wont affect any of the other things.
Now... Ill rephrase :)
What game or games are you running or trying to run with MoreCore?
chadhill
December 22nd, 2016, 07:07
Sorry, it is a custom game/campaign, I have several hundred definitions, rolls and Abilities, and I would hate to have to start over again. I can live without upgrading, but the "Saving throw" would save me a lot of redundant entries. And just out of curiosity how can I use the "-1, 0, +1"die in a string, or is it even possible?
damned
December 22nd, 2016, 11:08
Hi chadhill please always make backups of your campaign data. On launching FG click on the Folder Icon on the splash screen. Go to campaigns and zip the whole thing up or go into campaigns and zip up the campaign in question. Then move that zip onto your favourite cloud sync.
I am wary of updates that break data and so far Im pretty sure I have avoided that - even the MoreCore extension data has been able to still be used in MoreCore. There was a change in 1.34 that fixed a style definition for Rolls so there might be two different styles of Rolls you have saved but you probably wont notice the difference unless you go looking for it.
Anyways - your data is safe.
If you want to be able to add a modifier to (most of) the rolls create a Roll like this:
Name
/mod +2
You will see its Icon switches to a +/-
You can click that modifier before making the roll and it should add the modifier value and also the modifier name to the roll. Many rolls support this. And those that do generally support stacking of multiple modifiers. Perfect for systems like PbtA.

Hi ShotGun Jolly no - I dont think there is - not easily anyway. Can you describe your use case?
ShotGun Jolly
December 25th, 2016, 03:56
Hey Damned,
Its pretty simple actually.. The issue being on the more core tab of the character sheet, you only have the option of adding dice to a roll using the dice strings for your various systems. For example, in the Conan 2d20 ruleset, you have the option to use extra dice in a roll, but there is no other way to change the dice roll on the morecore tab unless you change the dice string each time. (Unless there is a way that I could not figure out).
If adding the ability to add extra dice like you could via the skills/attribute page, then you can set it for a default of 2 d20, and then right click to add extra dice. Cause as cool as it is to use the /conan dice string, to show the successes, but if there is not an easy way of adding extra dice, you are better off using the second page of the character sheet, which kinda sucks as most of the important dice info and stat info is on the morecore page, attacks, armor, etc.
Just something to thing about, thats all.

Hi all,
I honestly enjoy working with this and I right now use More Core to set up a Traveller environment (char generation and everything out of the core rules) to go with a first adventure there. I will post this .mod here later, but unfortunately for most of you guys it will be in German only :)
Nevertheless I wonder if I am only to dumb to see it: does there exist a dice roll to do something like -> /die 2d6 and count it, then tell me if the sum is bigger than min. 8 and count it as a success?
Thanks for the information and enjoy your weekend!

Success/fail dice don't calculate against the total, the success number is compared with each dice. Hence why you see 1 success in the last roll as 1 dice was a 6.

January 6th, 2017, 23:07
Thanks Imiri and Trenloe.
Welcome Waldbaer.
Have a look at /scripts/manager_custom_pbta.lua
It accepts /pbta 2d6 (+mod) and outputs a Fail message for 6 and under, success with cost on 7-9 and success on 10+
It should be easy to modify...
You would then go to base.xml and add the following line:
<script name="CustomDiceDT" file="scripts/manager_custom_dt.lua" />
and use something unique for the /slashname like /dt (Deutsch Traveller)
You could also use the scripts/manager_custom_save.lua as your base and hardcode it to return a success on 8 or more.
You would need to update the rMessage.text in any case to give you your German output.
So several ways to approach this :)
Once you finish - send it to me for inclusion in a future MoreCore.
If you told me the exact chat message output you needed I can write you a roller but it would be better if you wrote it :)
Id also need to know if it accepts modifiers.

I have a suggestion, (I don't know if it is even possible) create a "Roll" that can work "Templates". I have some kick-@$$ damage tables that gives a detailed and different STORY for each attack of several weapon types used, with different numerical and descriptive damage results every time it is generated. Is it possible to create a short cut button that will generate the templates without opening the actual "Template" window? I was just using a standard damage roll for each weapon, but then I figured out the "Table" string, WOW, but it does not give the whole "STORY", which is the focus of play. Just wondering, Thanks.
Bidmaron
January 7th, 2017, 17:51
Chadhill, I am working on an extension that will do that, among many other things, but it won't be ready for some time. The solution I'm working will still use tables, but there is also a new class, called a Generator, that adds additional wrapper capability to a table to handle sexing up the output akin to what you are asking for. Now, as for making attack rolls automatically link to such a thing... well, I haven't planned to do anything in that regard. It would be possible, however, to write an extension into the combat tracker (I think, but haven't investigated) that would do it....
chadhill
January 7th, 2017, 18:38
Wow, that's awesome, I realized that linking "Attack rolls" was a little much, so I figured I would just use the shortcut in lue of the damage roll and attack as usual. But boy, I can already figure out how to make that work with just a few linking tables to what I already have. Thanks

Hi chadhill and Bidmaron - I have not yet even looked at story templates and cannot see myself doing so at any time in the near future... however if it can be called via a command line switch then I should be able to add support for it to MoreCore. As you point out a few versions ago we introduced the ability to use the /rollon and save those into the Rolls database and to store them on the character sheet. I know Bidmaron has mentioned command line in one of the other threads so we shall see where that ends up.

Hey, damned. What I intend to do is have Generators serve kind of like story templates except that the output can be directed to a note as well as story entries. More importantly, generators will have a tab where the output can be directed and archived (or not). My work hours don't let me work on the extension as much as I'd like.

Sorry about that short response, I have a little more time now. Yes, I find the NPC rolls EXTREMELY useful. This makes the Role Playing much more enjoyable for me and my players. My games are much more story oriented and subtle changes and differences are "bread and butter".

Basically it is the exploding dice script wit the modification, that a "-1" modifier is added to each re-rolled die. This ensures that also re-rolled dice have more linear results e.g. d6p - that is how penetrating is written - comes up with a 6 and a 1 in the re-roll it is still a 6. Otherwise a 6 would always be a 7 as the 1 as a reroll is sure and it would be impossible to roll a 6.

January 15th, 2017, 07:55
Thanks Imiri. Does it accept modifiers? Is there a limit on the number of rerolls? Can all dice explode? Is it only a particular deice type?
Imiri
January 15th, 2017, 08:32
It does accept modifiers.
There is no limit to the number of re-rolls.
All dice (types) can explode/penetrade. But not every roll uses this. It adds a "p" to the notation. So d6 and d6p are different in this. [There is a remark in the book, that d20 penetrades with d6 and d100 with d20 but i never had that so far I am not sure if it needs to be in the dice roller]

Hi XenophageX I would ignore everything other than the MoreCore tab for most of your character stats.
Watch this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbWs7Lw9aXg&t=4s
Create it as a Roll.
Attacks was the first iteration and really only accepts the following:
description [Optional Description] simpledice,
like: Long Sword [A] 1d20+2, Long Sword [D] 1d8+2,
Rolls will allow you to use all those strings.
At the moment only the attack strings above or the /damage roll will let you drag and drop damage that adds properly (other drag and drop rolls will replace the damage).
I hope that makes sense?

Just an FYI. I just updated FG 3.2.2 and all my DOE's and discovered that the tabs are all missing form the DOE windows. I checked in my E3.5 and Core Sets and they are still fine. I don't know if it is an incompatibility with the new FG update or the new DOE update. I have posted this on OZ's Base thread, so all parties are aware. I know it is a small thing, but I thought you should know. Thanks, MoreCore Rulz!!!

Hey chadhill can you confirm you were using these with MoreCore prior to 3.2.2 and they were working?
Also is it the tab graphics that are missing - eg you can still see the words - or its the whole thing tabs + words making it completely unusable?

Hi Sibelius have you seen that NPCs can now display their rolls in the Combat Tracker?
This allows you to use the NPCs fully from the CT like in more full rulesets.
If that is not what you mean can you explain it to me more fully?
If you also need other Rolls types please explain them and I will try and accommodate.

Greetings, Damned.
The main issue is that damage rolls (and any other rolls in the L5R game) must use the "/rnk Roll", and therefore cannot be expressed as a single normal dice ("NdM+L").
So the Wounds Sum fantastic feature of MoreCore cannot be used by L5R players, or any other mechanic related to attacks (targets, etc). You can do the Roll, but the damage must be added to wounds manually, and the targets system would not work either. It is a pity, as it works GREAT for any other normal dice attacks (1d10+2, 3d8+1, etc) expressed in the "Attacks" frame.
Let me know if I can assist you getting Rolls into attack frame, as I have some free time these days!
Thank you again, and best wishes.

The easiest way will be for me to create a new roller /rnkd with the same behavior but with dice type damage. This will still be a roll but it will add to the existing damage. Would that work for you? The coding on the Attacks field is too different to easily convert to use with all the different dice roll strings. Way too hard. What do you think?
Sibelius
January 20th, 2017, 02:46
Sounds amazing, Damned. It will be of great help. Just the possibility of adding damage to wounds from a Roll is a fantastic feature!
It would be perfect if it could get advantage of the target information to be shown in the chat window (like "vs NPC1"), but that is just aesthetic.
Thank you for great job again. I think I will try to get a L5R theme extension done, will let you know about any progress!

Is it possible to configure a string to roll 1d100 and if the number is lower than the target # its a Success BUT if the lower ends in a 0 or 5 its a Critical Success and if it's higher than the target # its a Failure BUT the higher ends in a 0 or 5 its a Critical Failure?
For example, say the Target # is 43
A roll of 14 and 33 are a normal Success with 20 and 25 being a Critical Success.
A roll of 77 and 81 are a normal Failure with 65 and 90 being a Critical Failure.
I think it wold be similar to how its done in Basic Roleplaying but with a different Critical success criteria (BRP uses high and low end %'s of the roll whereas this would be using 5's and 0's for above and below the target #).

I'll open it up and look around this coming week when I am off.
It's a HarnMaster mechanic. Skill checks are D100. Basically, if the result is equal to or less than the skill level, it's a success, otherwise it's a failure. Expanding on that if the result ends in a zero or a five, it's a critical (either critical success of critical failure). The possible results are "CF" (critical failure), "MF" (marginal failure), "MS" (marginal success), and "CS" (critical success).

One more idea maybe although I admit it may not be worth the effort: I am working on the Traveller Core Rulebook right now in a German version - therefore, as I know someone else is already working on the ruleset, it will not be double work. However, is there a mechanism for the d66 roll that the Traveller system uses? I am just wondering as I am going to use the Core Rulebook.mod that I do for a game with the MoreCore Ruleset.
It is no real d66 with 66 numbers but something like -> throw two d6 and if the result is 4 and 6 -> then you receive a 64 and if the result is 5 and 2 then it would be 52

Hi Waldbaer - I will have a look at this. I spoke with the Traveller dev last week and its still moving forward but he is also working on a couple of projects concurrently.

Do modifiers adjust the first dice, the second dice, the total?
Is there a target number?
Is the target number static per skill?
Are you rolling over or under the target?
What do you call a success or fail?

It's called a d66 roll, and it's always just d6x10+d6 (no modifiers). So, results are 11, 12, 13 .. 16, 21, 22 .. 26, 31, 32 .. etc. There is also a d666 version (d6x100+d6x10+d6). Mostly used in table lookups.

With a bit of luck I am not the only one who would like to have it.

Ok so I have a working d60 and d600 but I have also put in a chunk of other effort in on Traveller dice that is now unused so please explain the traveller game system/mechanic for me.
You have attributes and skills? Is each Skill always tied to the same Attribute? What are valid numbers (and bonuses) for Attributes? For Skills? Is the target always 8? Are there situational modifiers? Do they affect the Target Number or adjust the dice roll?
Are there Crits and Fumbles?
Etc...
Andraax
January 22nd, 2017, 07:10
The general mechanic is 2d6 + skill level + attribute modifier +/- situational modifiers >= 8 for success (and amount of success or failure should be reported - if the total was 10, then an "effect" of 2 should be reported; or if the total was 5 an "effect" of -3 should be reported). Effect is not always used, but it shouldn't matter if it's always reported - it's used as a situational modifier if you have "chains" of skill checks. If you could make it so that dropping the result roll onto the modifier box adds the "effect" as modifier instead of the total that would be great, too.
Sometimes the skill level or attribute modifier is not used.
If the character has -no- ranks in the skill (this is different than a skill of "0" - a skill of "0" means that they have *some* familiarity with the skill and adds 0 to the die roll), a modifier of -3 is used.
Attribute modifiers normally range -3 to +3 for most cases, though things like powered armor can drive a strength modifier up (or other situations). While a skill has a "typical" attribute assigned to it, the GM can over-ride this on a case by case basis. For example, an Engineering check to build something from spare parts could use the Education attribute (if you're going "by the book" and building something you learned how to build) or the Intelligence attribute (if you're doing a "MacGyver" type build where you make something from totally unrelated stuff).
Combat is a skill check against the appropriate weapon skill for "to hit". Armor, range, aiming, cover, etc are all applied as situational modifiers. If the target is hit, damage is rolled as some number of d6 (depending on weapon) +/- modifiers and totaled. Damage is then taken from the three attributes Endurance, Strength, or Dexterity (first against End until End is reduced to 0, then subsequent damage from either of the other two, player's choice). When two attributes are reduced to 0, then the character is unconscious and all further damage is applied to the remaining attribute. If all three are reduced to 0, he is killed. The only kink in this is firing an automatic weapon in full auto mode (single shot and burst follow the same pattern, burst adds a modifier to damage if the the target is hit). When firing a full auto weapon in full auto mode, a number of dice equal to the "auto" rating of the weapon are rolled, and the player then groups the dice into pairs as he wishes, and each pair is resolved as a separate attack, and the skill for the weapon is capped at 1 (even if the character has a skill greater than 1, you only add 1 to the attack roll for the skill).
Sometimes, a natural 2 is always a failure and a natural 12 is always a success, though no automation should be applied to this, it only applies in a few situations.
Andraax
January 22nd, 2017, 07:18
Forgot to mention...
Attributes range from 0 to 15 for typical races, with attribute modifiers ranging from -3 to +3 (though as I did mention, some things can cause those numbers to exceed 15 and +3; those numbers are for an "unaugmented human").
Skills range from "untrained" (-3), then go from 0 up. There is no technical maximum, but I have never seen a character with greater than 6 in any skill. A skill level of 4 would be someone who is world famous in that skill - Medic 4, for example, would be a renowned physician or surgeon. If the skill is greater than 4, then they're not only famous among their peers, but famous outside of their normal group. Stephen Hawking would probably have a "Physical Sciences (Physics)" skill of 5 or 6, as he is known world wide for his knowledge of physics even among those people who have little knowledge of the subject themselves.

I have been thinking about those, XenophageX, hehe. You read my mind.
However, they are not easy to implement. For superior ability katanas, a /rnk9 command would be needed, with exploding 9's and 10's. That requires some new functions in Ikael routines, to designate two exploding dice results.
For the specialized rolls, repeating the 1's just the first time would be even more useful. But for this roll -let us call it /rnk1-, we need a new function, that substitutes the 1's for a new result, and only once.
I will look into those.

Actually I think you didn't.
d66 is used by the Austrian "Destiny" Games (Beginner, Dungeon, Space...) from "Ace of Dice"
and d666 is used by "in nomine" if I am not wrong.

Will ask this here, but hope to catch ya on Discord sometime soon. Can Morecore Do the AGE system dice mechanic? 2 d6 one color and 3rd d6 a different color?

morecore directly can't (yet) but as there are extensions for core that can be used with morecore you can do it:
AGE stunt die
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?25238-Fantasy-AGE&p=275541&viewfull=1#post275541
ore more useful with the rolls of morecore:
https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?25068-Change-colour-on-1-dice&p=220623&viewfull=1#post220623
As an example: Just type /die 2d6+d1006+4 for a roll with stunt die and a +4 modifier (attribute/focus)
Hope that answers your question.
I was thinking of doing something AGE like for morecore - but Dragon AGE is not possible (BIOWARE) and others like Blue Rose AGE green ronin might do something official.
But until than have fun. :-D

All damage rolls are roll and drag. At this stage only the GM can actually do the dragging.
Im thinking that should be in the next round of updates for the player to be able to apply damage on the drag themselves.

Really nice images, I will say as a background though the sunlight is too bright. Tone that done imo so that it's not so bright and so that their is not as much contrast between the light and dark sections.

Hi Mask_of_winter - what issue are you seeing? You may have to update your City of Mist Theme - changes in 3.2.2 affected the Sidebar Icon setup.

Damned,
Does MoreCore (or Fantasy Grounds for that matter) have the ability to link damage rolls to a table in the dicestring? So for example:
Roll damage dice and it would also roll on a hit location table?

Not right now... but will have a think about it.
What Roll are you mostly thinking about for this initially?

MoreCore is really amazing, guys, great job!
Do you think it would be possible to include a dicestring imitating Ars Magica's basic stress roll mechanic? This is a variation of the exploding mechanic, where you roll a d10. If you you roll a 1, you can roll the die again and multiply the result by two. If the second roll is also a 1, you roll again and multiply by 4, and so on. I don't think this is possible with CoreRPG, but maybe it could be done with MoreCore?
Thanks in advance!
damned
February 14th, 2017, 08:38
Hi Teotimus is that the only function of that exploding dice?
Is it always one die?
/stress 1d10
You only re-roll 1s?
Do other results not count?
Only 1s count as stress?
1s and any additional 1s and the multiplied 1s?
If you roll a 1 and you explode and roll a 6 is that a stress of 7 or 1?
If you roll a 1 and you explode and roll another 1 and then you roll a 8 is that 3 or 11?
etc...
Please be as specific as possible.
Teotimus
February 14th, 2017, 08:51
Thanks for your quick answer, Damned.
Yes, Ars Magica only uses this exploding mechanic for stress rolls. You always roll one die, and it's always a d10. Only 1s explode, and every other result is counted as normal except 0, that is considered a possible fumble.
("Stress rolls" are opposed to "simple rolls", where 1 reads as 1 and 0 as 10).
The main difference with stress rolls is that exploding does not add but multiplies the next roll by a factor of two (stackable).
So, following your examples, if you roll a 1 (explodes) and then a 7, it would 14 (2 x 7).
If you roll a 1 (explodes) and then another 1 (explodes) and then an 8, it would be 32 (2 x 2 x 8).
(If you rolled three straight ones and a 10, it would be... 80 (2 x 2 x 2 x 10).

Shotgun,
I would think that you would have to grab the dice in the damage manager script and run them through the table there. basically how in DH I handle the hit roll finding the hit location.
ShotGun Jolly
February 15th, 2017, 05:42
Damned:
You can forget what I talking about.. After thinking more about it, there are way to many variables for that to work as smoothly as I was hoping for in the Conan Mechanic. Its just simpler to do a dice string like this:
(SWORD)1d6 dmg+1d20 Hitlocation; and just look at chart. As I do not care about the totals, as long as I can see each dice.
Paul:
Thanks! Yeah, I was going to try and see if it could be done that way. But I didn't want to modify it on my end, as the next time morecore updates, I would loose my own changes as I am running it through an extension. Unlike what I was doing before with DH.
Paul Pratt
February 15th, 2017, 07:10
Shotgun,
You wouldn't lose the changes if you had the functions called form a file that was in your extension. Say Manger_Damage2.lua or something like that. I use that in DH for quite a few things so when Core updates I don't need to as well.

Could Conan 2d20 Combat roll be added to show damage rolls? Damage on 2d20 system is always a xd6 roll where 1 and 2 are damage points, then 3 and 4 are blank no damage, and 5 and 6 are 1 damage + effect. Effect is just to activate some weapon properties.
Also could initiative order be removed from Combat Tracker? It will be like Star Wars Edge of the Empire where there is no real initiative but each player or master decides when to act. So there is no real number values but each turn they can decide who acts.
Thank you! Just joined this ruleset to use Conan 2d20 and I am very happy, your job here is amazing!

Hi alfarobl I discussed with Shotgun Jolly and his preference was to roll the damage dice himself. Ill have a look at it in the near future.
The Combat tracker requires someway to order people - the init can be set manually on the character sheet. Other methods are quite complex.
I use MoreCore for Dungeon World and leave the Init field blank as there is no initiative in that system either.
Im glad you are enjoying it :)

It would be great if you could add Combat Dice... it is easy to do manually but having a specific roll will avoid making mistakes.
There is a video about how the Combat Tracker works on Edge of the Empire with Trenloe ruleset... don't know if you could add some ideas from it to MoreCore. Maybe it is not possible, but just in case:
EotE Combat Tracker (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39085830/Vids/FG/Star%20Wars%20v2/SW%20EotE%20Ruleset%20v2%20-%20Combat%20Tracker%201.mp4)
Thank you again! Hope to be able to test Conan 2d20 soon with MoreCore on real play with the Quickstart.

Like I said, it was just my personal preference, I am sure there would be no harm in having it. I am sure some people out there would rather have that.

I love the heck out of this (first as a mod but now as a pak it's downright awesome!) My only request would be for the new Vampire the Requiem rolling mechanic, which is like /successes but with exploding dice. In other words it rolls #d10s with every 8, 9, or 10 counting as a success but any 10s also get to be rerolled checking for any further successes. The older WoD mechanic of reducing successes for any 1s rolled no longer applies. No idea how tough that might be to code but I'd at least like to make the request for it if it isn't too much trouble.

Also I'm wondering if there might be an issue with /successes from the sheet. The syntax works fine as a base / command but it I add something like the following as an attack on a sheet:
[ATK] Awesome Sword (Fighting) (Finesse) /successes 6d10x7,
It properly highlights as if it recognizes that as a roll, but double-clicking does nothing and dragging it into the box just outputs the following:
[ATK] Awesome Sword (Fighting) (Finesse) /successes 6d10x (7)
The (7) at the end means it displays the number 7 as if it were the output of a roll.
I also tried making a quick NPC dropping that in the Combat Tracker and dragging the attack from either the sheet or the CT display for that character onto the NPC as if it were an attack, but neither method appears to do anything. Sam if I drop both characters on a map and drop the attack onto the NPC. No apparent effect.
I also just noticed that the Modifiers box has several small dots underneath it and that it put a +43 modifier into that box when I double-clicked the attack. Mousing over the dots it looks like they have been given the names of my attacks and damage entries, too.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

I will have a look and see if I can work that roller out. Dont be afraid to dive into the rollers and try it yourself and then we can add it back in...
