This mod uses the standard [B]A[/B]d[B]X[/B]+[B]B[/B] notation where [B]A[/B] = the number of dice to roll (1 if not present) [B]X[/B] = the number of faces on the dice [B]B[/B] = represents a modifier, usually a + or - but also a divides or multiply. I also need it to do certain things like, only show the sum/result of the roll or show all the die results and the sum of the roll. I also wanted the ability to do open rolls, e.g. if you roll 6, six sided die, you keep rerolling any dice that come up a 6. So, basically, I have concocted three different bbcodes in one product: {roll}1d4{/roll} - for rolling and showing only the results or sum {rollv}1d4{/rollv} - for rolling and seeing the result of each dice as well as the sum {rollo}1d4{/rollo} - for open rolls Each of these takes and optional label for the roll, to be included in the tag after the '=' sign, e.g. {roll=to hit}4d6{/roll} and so forth. It is, however, optional as the actual notation for the roll is displayed before the results in the final posting. So, for example, you can enter rolls like the following: {roll}4d6{/roll} to get the sum of 4 six sided die. {roll}d%{/roll} for a percentage roll (same as 1d100) {roll}4d6b3{/roll} to roll 4 six sided dice and only sum the "best" three results

I doubt you have a 3 sided die.

Yeah, technically there is still 5 sides >_> and that's not even a picture of YOUR dice that you can physically roll so i'm not 'owned'

What does a coin count if you throw for heads or tails and it lands sideways?

why are we even having this discussion? pretty sure there are no million sided dice, yet you can still do it virtually, it does not matter. if you need a random number between 1 and 1 million, you got it.
