5E - Request Roll Extension - WIP

[st4lk3r87]

I'm very happy to see you're having a good experience with that. I paused the project for a while but I might try to add mismatched rolls soon. Everything is possible

The only thing that would be better is if you could extend the /vote xxxx function to pop similar windows for the players.

Can you give me an example of how that should work?

I also have a question: Athletics is normally attached to Strength. If the player changes the box next to Athletics to CON in their char sheet, and then the DM requests an Athletics check using this extension: Will it roll STR(Athletics) or CON(Athletics)?

It should use the current skill configuration so it roll CON(Athletics).

I love this extension. A lot of times, I get whispers from a player while I'm in the middle of narrating (stuff like, I search for secret doors). Usually, I have to stop my narration (because I use push to talk, simply whispering back doesn't always work) and respond. I can now just do a few mouse clicks and have the player make a hidden roll. This is a GREAT thing!

I really appreciate this comment. If you have any improvement ideas to propose just let me know!

Something like this would be nice for the other rulesets (2e, C&C) if possible. Quite nice.

I picked this up today and will give it a roll in my next session. Thanks st4lk3r87!

Is it possible to ask for a hidden roll but let the player see it?

Ex: The Paladin wants to stay still to not make sound. I use the extension to ask them for a Hidden Stealth roll. The player clicks the button and rolls automatically using the Dice Tower. Only the GM sees the result.

I sometimes want to show the player the result too.

Is it possible to make the Paladin player and the GM see the roll but not others?

Don't roll it hidden, or take the chat results and drag it back onto the chat and it will re-print a version of the results.

[HuseyinCinar]

The point is not allowing other players to see the roll. I want only the player who rolled to see.

Ah! I didn't get that. As you know, that will require an extension (or a mod to this one!)

I guess I can whisper the result to the player. That seems like the best way. I have no knowledge of Lua or any sort of coding so I can't write an extension!
