What is the faux roll used for in the manual die roll feature? It just seems like a regular roll to me and the players also see it. I thought it would show shadow die with no result. Can anyone shed some light on this feature?

Never mind. I answered my own question. Connected with a player client and they don't see it.

I stand corrected. The players see the shadow dice but they don't see the result I input. They see what the faux roll rolled. Doesn't that defeat the purpose? Someone else also started a thread about this. Thanks for any info you can provide.

By design, for faux rolls, the players see shadow dice rolling (as for all GM rolls); but the result output in the chat window should be the result specified.

Are you seeing something different?

Yes, the result is a random number, not the one I specified.

Just noticed another post with similar issues. It looks like the manual dice entry system is not working correctly on Savage Worlds specifically (not just faux rolls). I've escalated to @Ikael.
