Player Thrown Dice not applying modifiers

[jimlad42]

(Tested on an empty 5e campaign with no extensions. Spotted while playing with friends online, re-tested on my computer with two instances open.)

When a player drags a die and throws it, it doesn't apply modifiers from the bottom left buttons or effects, nor does it get applied to the players target.
For example, clicking advantage and +5, adding effects for advantage, and an effect for extra damage, and then throwing dice for an attack and damage, it rolls a normal attack and normal damage, neither targeted.

All of those effects do work fine if the dice are dropped into the chat box, or if the dice buttons are clicked instead of dragged out.
Additionally, if the DM throw the dice it properly applies all the modifiers, effects, and targets as expected. The issue only arises when players throw dice.

I can recreate. This was reported to the FG devs. Hopefully they'll get a fix for this soon.

I'm not seeing this.

From your screenshot it doesn't appear that your players have any target for their attacks or damage. What I did was added a PC and an NPC onto the CT and on the players screen added in a modifier (either ADV/DIS or a positive or negative number) and then dragged the attack and damage rolls onto the target on the CT. I also tested just normally targeting the NPC and then rolling the attack or damage as you normally would. In all cases the correct modifier was applied to the attack or damage roll.

The images below show the player and DM view of several rolls.

If you are using extensions please disable them before testing again; or test in a new campaign without extensions.

EDIT: ok I re-read your post and Trenloe's and since Trenloe is always right I see now that you are throwing the dice instead of dropping it onto the target. I can replicate if you do this.

Your steps work fine, as you're specifically using targeting (drag/drop onto a token). The difference is that with the new throw anywhere functionality, targeting should be used if the action if thrown anywhere onto the screen. This works correctly for the GM but not for players.

This is fixed now if you run a check for updates you should get the correct behaviour.

Just updated and it's not fixed for me. D&D 5E ruldset - flinging an attack from the PC actions tab anywhere on the screen works fine if the GM does it, but not if the player does it - no modifiers applied, no targeting applied. It only works on the player side if you drag/drop in the chat window (drop, not throw/fling the dice).

This is a video I made on Saturday, and sent to JPG, showing the issue: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/1cg3tffq0lnk879onti5a/5E-Drag-Drop-targeting-issue.mp4?rlkey=jkwlx903dix9t4hizgnpjy5qu&dl=0

Oops, I only tested DM side, and it wasn’t this issue specifically but something similar where dice strings were not picking up bonuses.

In my experience it appears to be the same base issue - the bonuses aren't picked up either.

I've resolved the issues that I saw with player targeting and modifier box application when rolling outside chat area. Please run a new Check for Updates, and let me know if still seeing any issues.

Yep, looks like it works perfectly now, fantastic work. And glad we could help resolve a different issue as well.
