Title: additional parameters for /roll
Post by: dewed on September 16, 2006, 07:35:54 pm
maybe these have been suggested and I used the wrong search terms, but I did look.. honest  :P

die colors, roll comments, and roll batching

* DIE COLORS
Something like a 'C' parameter, that indicates the die should pick a random color as well as a number, from say.. black, red, green or blue

/roll 1 13 C     

"player rolled  blue 7"

or, optionally, the player defines color, it must match one of the randomized one..
/roll 1 13 C red
"player rolled red 11"

* ROLL COMMENTS
The idea is to be able to add a comment, thats appended to the roll, much like emoting while speaking..
/me yawns "well its late I'm off to get some sleep"

/roll 1 13 C "HOUSE ROLL"
"player rolled red 11 HOUSE ROLL"

* ROLL BATCHING
This just allows you to do multiple rolls with one command, use the asterisk *, and a number from 2, to say 7 or so. Batch numbers outside the range are ignored

So for instance,
/roll 1 13 C *3       repeats the roll command 3 times, echoing a single line of the "rolled" values

"player rolled green 7, red 3, black 3"

I think these options would greaty expand the type of games one could play using the dice system, certainly poker comes to mind, roulette etc.

I like.

It would also be nice to add /roll to /tell, /group, and /guild.
