This extension allows for easy rolling with advantage or disadvantage by simply holding control or alt while making the roll.

It is crude, but effective and helps speed things up considerably in play when there is a lot of advantage / disadvantage going around (npc active perception checks are a great use case example)
I will get around to making it a bit more elegant in the future but for now it does the job.

v0.1: Basic implementation.
v0.2: Fixed initiative issue.
v0.3: Updated for 3.3.6
v0.4: Updated for 3.3.9 and attached bonus Darker Theme extension.

3.3.9 Compatible

Darker Theme

The normal 5e theme must be enabled for this to work, this extension simply darkens the hotkey bar to make the text easier to read.

Hi there, love this ext, have used it alot however with the current version it seems to be conflicting with the combat tracker when I use it to roll for initiative. When I try to roll, only with this ext turned on, I get the following error:
Script Error: [string "scripts/manager_combat2.lua"]:656: attempt to call field 'getEffectAdjustments'(a nil value)

Would you be able to update this?

Thank you!

Hi, I love your extension and it also worked great in Unity.

This week i bought Fantasy Grounds Mad Nomad's Party Combat Stats

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/324470/Fantasy-Grounds-Mad-Nomads-Party-Combat-Stats

I found an conflikt with this extension:

If bothe extensions are loaded it does not count the Hits, Crits, Miss, Fumble Statistik. The Damage, Healing ect is still counting.
Maby it is possible to fix it?
I like the option to ctr/Alt klick and have advantage/disadvantage on any dice roll (Saveing Throw, Attribute, Ability,...) and i also like the possibility to have a combat statistic about the whole campaign.


Thank you

It might be doable, but without access to the other extension it would be hard to tell what would need to be changed.

I will have a look later when I have some time, it might be something obvious on my end.

I don’t know why or how but today it worked. Every attack is counted and the hotkeys are working. ����*♂️

This is weird... I think.lol
I'll test it out later. But thanks for the heads up.

I will go check it out tomorrow (it is quite late here in Aus) I cannot imagine it would be hard to fix :)

Mmh I checked it, it doesn't work anymore sadly.

Though my work around for PC players, is to keybind a spell to the bottom, for True Strike , this gives advantage on your attack, and you can activate and cast it on (self) your PC by clicking it or either using the hot-key F1-F12 keys.

I just renamed, True Strike to, Advantage attack (on roll)

This gives my players a faster way to apply advantage, I also use it for them ending their turn in the Combat Tracker.

Update:

Lol I just found that Silentruin, had posted an extension to apply advantage by pressing, Alt, so their more then one option to apply advantage !!
