Dice Room Tavern Mini UI Help

when I first registered this account, I had 6 shortcuts in my6 lobby that successfully saved. Now when I go to make any more shortcuts, it does not save them. Any clues? | reply

Hey guys,

I'm new here but i'm looking for an app/site that let people easily manage same user to change their name (to fit their character) in different chat room.

Any way to do this on this site?

Thanks, | reply

Additive Re-Rolling (i.e. 10D6R8) is NOT working.

A roll of 6 on a D6 should additive a re-roll to the 6 value (Roll a D6 get a 6, re-roll get a 3 = Rolled a 6+3 = 9 )

Right now it just stops on 6 on a D6. | reply

I am trying to find an online die roller that works with Firefly RPG. Basically the die roller here fails, because multiple die types are used in one roll and it is generating 2 highest die out of all the die types rolled. It also collects 1's and those are marked as jinxes and can be used as complications using a Plot Point (similar to Genesys Story Points or FFG SW RPG Destiny Points)

I can do the formula in Excel and get it to work, so there should be a way in an online dice roller. I can provide the code or .xls to show how.

Is this something that can be incorporated?

Basically need ( 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 1d4 )H2 where it shows the highest 2 rolls of all the dice, and usually will all be different die types. That would be a start.. then a way to count 1's and make them so they are discarded from the total highest 2.. .. so if you roll a d8 and d6 and you roll a 1 and a 6.. the highest dice roll is only 6 (not 7) because 1's don't count other than as a jinx (like a crit fail, but your opposition has to spend something to make them into complications, otherwise they don't count at all).

If all 1's are rolled on the dice, it is called a botch, and results in 0 success, and real bad things happen. In some cases, like if you are injured and Taken Out of the scene, you can spend a Plot Point to take limited actions. While in limited actions, only the Highest 1 die is counted. All have to be shown in the result because players can spend PP on adding another one of the die results to the total. | reply

Several times I've had my Shortcuts get deleted. What exactly makes Rolz remember the shortcuts I've created?

Hello. On of players of mine have a problem: when he tries to enter our game room, he enter SOME room with correct name yet without the rest of us or our chat logs. | reply

Please add a forgot password link and if possible, the ability to change your password in your profile. At this time, my password is weak and has been compromised on other sites. This puts your site at risk. Thanks. | reply

Can't join the room. I have already use command with password. Room - ''Ad Astra 2354'' | reply

For some time now several rooms owned by me, and one owned by a friend, have been encountering a strange issue. Currently, only one dice roll is allowed per post, and when attempting to roll more than one die, the following (recently attempted) result appears:
GM_Strangler rolls 1d6 = 2 #1d6 #1d6

This causes the 2nd, 3rd, and all onward rolls to fail. One of our biggest rules stipulates that actions in a paragraph MUST be rolled in order, which.. this issue has effectively broken our speed-of-posting, forcing players and GM's into posting single rolls between paragraphs. Is this a known issue or something unique? | reply

Just a minor bug report - dice rolls above halfway up the chat box that are enough to take up 2 lines glitch out and flash open and closed repeatedly because the (i) icon moves away from your mouse, thereby closing it, and so the (i) moves back down, opening it again... | reply

This would be golden as an app for the phone. I use this for between my real sessions to keep things... rolling.. *groan*.
You have done a very cool thing here. | reply

When I try to roll stats for a D&D character using your site, the highest scores I get are 6's. I've rolled 4-5 sets of numbers, and each time they turn out to be 2,3,5,6,4,3 or something like that. I don't think your programming is totally up to speed.You might want to address this if you want people to use your site. | reply

Hi!
I was wondering... there's a way to use the F and X function in one roll? | reply

How do you reset a password | reply

4d6h doesn't work properly. For example:


JeffW rolls gen d20 Str Con = Str 6 (-2), Con 6 (-2), Dex 5 (-3), Int 3 (-4), Wis 4 (-3), Cha 6 (-2) | reply

Is there any way you can allow for a roll and a comparison to a Wiki Page?

IE: #d100 =< wikiPage.StatVariable | reply

Dear Udo

I made a discord bot solely for rolling through the rolz.org API…
If I can find a place to easily host it and run it from, may I?
Alternatively, if you want to host it, that'd be great.

If you don't want a rolz discord bot permanently hosted at all, that's fine, too.
If you already have a rolz bot, let me know, and I'll use it instead. | reply

Looks like "R" additive re-rolling is not working. Tried 4D6R8 (or 4R8) and it never rolled over a 6 in 30+ attempts. But using 4M6 works fine. | reply

Love this, I'm using the API in conjunction with Alfred app to make quick dice rolls in my games. Saves a lot of time for lots of enemies.

For a query like "repeat 6 1d20", I can't work out if it's possible to construct the query string to get the API to parse it correctly. Any tips on getting that working? | reply

I forgot my password AGES ago, any help? :< | reply

I've got two groups started and one is already role-playing. During the process of learning Rolz, I accidently started a few rooms that I will never use. How can I delete these rooms or more directly, remove them from my "forum posts/rooms" menu? | reply

Hello!

Switched to this site for some of my RPGs and I'm really happy with it so far. However, my only complain about it is that since my group tends to like making big posts, reading and reviewing them is hard without being able to type on new lines or on a text box that shows more than one line, respectively. Are these something you intend on eventually implementing?

Best regards. | reply

Connecting....Connecting.....Connecting....Why? | reply

I know it's rng, but damn my dice rolls over the last two weeks have royally sucked...80% of the time i can't get a roll above 10. | reply

Hello,
I’m curious if something had changed in the rolling algorithms recently (in the last few months maybe)? The rolling seems to became more chaotic and less resembling normal distribution. We are playing WoD where you roll several dice and get “successes”, and it may be just me, but now the weird “minimaxed” rolling sequences like 9 9 9 2 1 9 8 7 or 5, 2, 8, 4, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 7 seem to appear way too often. I ran a few tests on the Rolz main page, and it does appear to be an issue, and not just a stroke of (bad) luck. | reply

I’m using a iPhone 6s+ to access Rolz. I can’t get the blogs for the game I’m in and I can’t post new threads in the forum. Please help me | reply

when you add modifiers i.e. 1d20+5 the mod is set as equal to zero so the roll comes out as wrong. | reply

Is there no way to change password? | reply

Heya,

I see you have a equal to and greater formula. Is there something like a equal to and under?

For example, in a quest that I follow, it has a Talent Number and in order to count cultivation successes, it's every roll that's equal to your talent no. and lower for successes. So if you talent number is, say, 6, 1-6 = successes, but 7-10 = failures. | reply

I have read the law, the citizen brief made available to us. Not the full document introduced to the Union (yet.)

First and foremost; this website is not a business. It would be considered a private, non commercial website, and these laws target companies. (Registered and all, operating in the EU or having trade deals in place legitimizing working in the EU and of course, being subject to EU laws whilst doing so.) Because you are not a "Service provider." in the term of a contract (Tit for Tat) But rather a free to use tool online using donations i do not think you are subject to the penalties or obligations.

Secondly in regards to liability, I think you lawyers was commenting on: (Art. 33-34 of the Regulation)

"If your data is lost or stolen, and if this data breach could harm you, the
company causing the data breach will have to inform you (and the relevant data
protection supervisory authority) without undue delay. If the company doesn’t do
this, it can be fined. Recent attacks, such as WannaCry, Meltdown and Spectre, or
the Uber case show how important this new right is."

That is to say if Damages WERE suffered, proven by court, and willful ignorance or attempts to cover up the breach, proven in court sanctions will be filed. But, because you are not a for-profit anything. But i also do not think your site (as far as i can see) stores any information that could "Hurt" a person. People do not have secrets hidden here, banking information, credit cards? Home adresses?

And (Art. 12-14 of the Regulation)

A right to receive clear and understandable information
about who is processing your data, what data they are processing and why they are
processing it.

I do not reckon you store much information, but you will need to have one of those anoying eula's or pop up saying. "We have cookies, store your ip for future visits and do not do anything with th is information, the Eu has asked me to be annoying so click on the TRIANGLE, not the X to say "Ok man. what ever let me roll dice."


It is my opinion that you will be fine, but asking lawyers who understands EU laws and your specific obligation is a good step to ensure you manage your risks.

I have been using your site recently and hope to continue to use the work of your great efforts in the comming years.

Stay calm, be good, and be cool man.

-Eu guy. | reply

Hey dude, I don't really understand what you're saying with your latest message, but nothing in any EU legislation would stop EU residents from accessing this site, their is no legal issue.

All the best | reply

I was wondering if there is a rolz Discord bot? | reply

When I enter my credentials in Chrome, and try to log in, it gives me an error page. ("This page is not working.")

Then, if I hit "Refresh," it gives me the blank login screen again.

Then, if I hit "Dice Room" it acts normal, and goes to my dashboard.

This does NOT occur if I login with Microsoft Explorer. (The old one, Version 11.0.9600.18837)

So apparently, ROLZ doesn't work correctly with Chrome. Will there be a fix for this? I've been putting up with this for quite some time (a few months) and although I know how to bypass the error, it is inconvenient to be forced to do so.

Thanks! | reply

Hi there,

i tried to use the api, however i notice that you haven't set an Acces Controll header, meaning that the only viable option to use it is jsonp, even though multiple formats are supported. Is it possible to set the access-controll header?

Sincerely,
koen

PS: the reason i ask is because i've incorporated the api into a "random char generator" exercise for first year ACS students. | reply

I'm playing shadowrun 5e and I wanted to see if I could use this to do some of the rolling but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I'm getting errors using (count=1 *d6e5). What I'm trying to do is get the system to tell me how many of * d6s are 5 or 6s thus sucesses and how many 1s were rolled so I can see if half or more were ones and thus this roll is a glitch. Eventually I'll also want to have a second one where all 6s are also rolled again for edge tests but one step at a time. | reply

is there a way to roll a large bulk of dice all at once? for example:

I want to roll 10d30 100 times instead of clicking roll 100 times

then I want to "count/or sum up" how many times I rolled 300(all 10 dice on 30) etc? | reply

Hi!

If I were to use Rolz for a PbP game, would our room persist so that we could use it as a neutral base for our rolls? In other words, if a character were to roll initiative, action, effect, could I log into the room two days later to see the results? | reply

yep, servers down | reply

Vedexent is correct. The embedded dice roll syntax doesn't work. It has been broken for quite a while now. Hopefully this is a small error that can be fixed soon. | reply

system dice fail | reply

I'm posting this to agree with Eli below me--not being able to rename myself "GM", or risking any kind of name being password-locked is kind of ridiculous. I love the chat interface and room wiki functions, but am torn between Rolz and Roll20/something else for literally only this reason.

Reducing restrictions to a room-by-room basis (so you can't have 2 people named GM, for example) would make Rolz my first choice for chatroom-based RPing. | reply

Just a heads up that - at least in the lobby - the embedded die roll syntax ( e.g. "This is my D20 roll: [d20]" ) seems to be broken.

Trying to use this syntax causes the system to return no text at all: no speech, no die roll - it just appears that the person has said a blank line. | reply

Hello!

I use this site rather frequently for tabletop games, and while I enjoy the notion of having password protected nicknames, it is growing increasing frustrating to explain to my game masters why my name is not my characters as those names seem to just ever increasingly become password protected. It makes our sessions confusing for identifying who exactly is rolling,

So while the idea is nice, it is also, in my opinion, becoming a a nuisance to try and give yourself a nick for your in game character and the message of password protected keeps popping up. | reply

Hi!
It's a great work, thank you!
Can you create such a success-based dice code, in which we can see how many dice rolled equal to or LOWER than some number? (Maybe with type "U')
Thank you! | reply

I may be missing something, but running the count command seems to display the sum of dice rather than the count of the results specified.

ex. #count=1 10d6 displays the following:
Amras rolls count=1 10d6 = 33 (3 +6 +4 +4 +1 +4 +4 +1 +2 +4) | reply

I cannot get into the dicerooms right now. It keeps attempting to connect. | reply

The inline dice codes seem to be broken. When I post "test [1d100]" I get a blank line in the chat log. e.g. Isaacssv558:

These used to work, so no idea why they don't now. Websockets is working and I tried turning my firewall off, but still no lick. | reply

I want to delete profile and dice room. How can I do that? | reply

We can only save 6 short cuts I would like to be able to save 24 for the game I am playing with a couple friends. | reply

Hi, thats' a great site. Many thaks from me!

But i lack one feature: is there any possibility to send a multi line (with cr/lf) text to the chat? | reply

The bracket "[ ]" Commands wont work, whenever i include them, it ends up a blank post, | reply

What's the link to the IRC server? I'd rather have this handy in my command line than in the browser. | reply

Whenever I try to use brackets to embed rolls in lines of text nothing shows up in the chat other than my name. | reply

Bug with explosive dices

xxx rolls 10d10s4 = 8 ( (2 28 8 7 4 8 2 8 8 16 → 8 success(es) against 4) )

28 = 10 + 10 + 8 (3 successes non 1)

PS - Thanks for deleting certain conversations. I was in a very black head space when I started reading some of those truly horrific trolls, and I engaged with the intent to vent my spleen back at them.

In the end, it was stupid, as I should have just ignored them. They did make very tantalizing targets, though.

Regardless, not only do I respect your decision to delete said conversations, I am grateful for it.

And for this site. I am impressed it has a way to handle Prowlers & Paragons style dice rolls. | reply

Hi, first of all thanks for the effort in keeping Rolz going. The servers seem to be up again but I still cannot see my dice rooms, just some symbols - when I try to connect I get a host error on the Rolz side. Would be great if you can look into this. Thanks! | reply
