Memory for Savage Worlds dice about sidekick HOT 5 CLOSED

max(d10!,d6!)k1

This doesn't work, does it?

Is adding abbreviations/macros for specific systems something you're willing to do?

I have plans for the bot to remember the rolls under shortcuts. So if there is a lengthy roll that does what you need, then I'd rather focus on making it available under a shortcut.

I was going to implement it in the following way:

/r strength max(d10!,d6!)k1

Rolls and remembers the dice specification as "strength".

/r strength

Rolls strength again.

Ah, right, sorry--I meant max(d10!,d6!), which works fine. Got confused while transcribing it to Github, apparently.

Shortcuts sounds like a great idea, and should work for most Savage Worlds rolls. It would be handy to do math with them, e.g.

/r swd10 max(d10!,d6!)
/r swd10 +4

To make a d10 trait roll with a +4 bonus. Although that syntax could get confusing, as it could be interpreted as redefining "swd10" as "+4". Maybe you'd want to use = as an explicit assignment operator?

Good idea!

I think I'll mark the memorized rolls with a sigil, e.g.

/r $swd10 = max(d10!,d6!)
/r $swd10 +4

This will simplify greatly the task of fishing for memorized names in expression.

P.S. I wonder if treating it in the shell way would be better, e.g.

/r swd10 = max(d10!,d6!)
/r $swd10 +4

Check it out.

/r $swd10 = max(d10!,d6!)
/r $swd10
