/roll result for each dice

[Tchikibo]

Hello,
I'm coding different rolls for a ruleset I am developing. I have stumbled uppon a problem. I know there is a way to register a roll to retrieve its informations after the roll, but I have no return on the roll functions so I don't understand the mechanic for it. I have tried to unpack how it is treated with the adv and dis in 5e, but I can't wrap my head around how it works. Can somebody help me please ? I want to compare the dices among one rolls.

You need to setup a roll handler. Look at any of the manager_action_ files in 5E. They are declared onInit(). It would be the result handler. The rRoll table will be passed into that function.

To get some explanation what happens in a lua file, you can upload the code to ChatGPT and ask, how a specific function works in detail. You usually get a very nice explanation what is happening and what variables are used for what. You can even upload multiple files in a zip.

Yes thank you ! The handler is the key. I had check in the manager_actions from CoreRPG and the one from 5e, I hadn't though of looking at specific calls like attack of check. It should work with this lead. Thank you

Thank you, I may try the ChatGPT lead. But I like to try and investigate. Gives me a better understanding of the code.
