    Or, in the manage characters screen, you can use the Roll tab of the chat window to set it up to drop lowest when you roll 4d6

    Extensions = risk to your gaming experience. If you haven't tested out the extensions in your campaign before your gaming session, turn them off. If you don't backup your campaigns regularly, you're doing it wrong.

    It seems the author is no longer around, but it would be nice to have this functionality in the 2e ruleset, since 4d6 dropping the lowest die in order is the first method of character generation given in the 1e DMG. Is it possible to get this to work with the 2e ruleset?

    It already works with the 2e ruleset. Download the extension and open the extension.xml file in notepad or whatever and add the following to the list.

    Code:
    <ruleset>
                <name>2E</name>
            </ruleset>
    Save your changes and activate the extension in the ruleset and it will work
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Hi all. Has anyone been able to use the code from the extension to create an action to roll multiple dice for damage and keep the highest? Eg /rolld 2d6 1 correctly rolls 2d6 and drops the lowest, but I have been unable to code this as an action. I suspect it is not possible, but would be very happy to be proven wrong!

    Hi kerrigaj,
    quick and dirty:

    Register the script in base.xml with a name of your choosing:
    Code:
    <script file="scripts/droplowest.lua" name="ActionRolls"/>
    Then you can call it in a script and basically hand over the same string which you would get from typing it in the chat:
    Code:
    function onDoubleClick(x, y)
      local nDiceTest = getDatabaseNode().getValue();
      local sParams = "/rolld " .. nDiceTest .. "d6 1";
      ActionRolls.processRoll(sParams);
      return true;
    end

    Off the top of my head i think under Unity you can just do

    /die 4d6k3

    and it will work
    apologies if I got the syntax wrong...
