Generic DicePool extension fore CoreRPG

[ianmward]

I have put together a generic dice pool extension for CoreRPG with Cortex and Mutant: Year Zero in mind.

It appears next to the modifier box and allows you to different dice in and then roll them.

It also overrides the normal double click action on attributes to add them to the dice pool with the name of the attribute as a label which appears in the chat window when the pool is rolled.

I will talk to damned about integrating it with MoreCore.

See it in action.
Get the extension.

v0.92
* increased max slots to 10

And its awesome.

And you’re building it into the MoreCore ruleset, right Damned?

Is there an easy way to increase the maximum number of dices in the pool (the maximum is 6), perhaps as in MoreCore?

There isno limit to the number of dice in the pool, just a limit to the number of individual additions to the pool. Each time you add dice to the pool, you can add as many as you like.

Typically you add the dice in sets, as in the example video, such as the attribute dice, the skill dice and the item dice. This may add up to lots of dice but only uses 3 pool entries (or slots).

That said, it would be possible to increase the number of slots too, but would require some changes to the graphics as well as the scripts.

In MoreCore the Dice Pool has 10 slots.

Hi all! Is that supposed to work also for 5e?

Hi eriktedesco,
Why do you need it in 5e? D&D doesn't use the pool mechanic, does it?

[ianmward]

In MoreCore the Dice Pool has 10 slots.

Okay then, I'll steal your graphics and update it

Done...
