Geth Diceroll Changes?

NeadenNeaden Registered User regular
Geth roll 10d10

Just wondering about the changes with Geth's dicerolling. You used to be able to ask him to make a roll anywhere in your post, and even have him roll multiple times. Now however if you ask him to roll aside from the top of your post
Geth roll 10d10 for demonstration 2
Nothng happens. Now I know Geth is our benevolent robot overlord, but was wondering if there was any way to get the old functionality back. It would make playing in CF easier.

    geth roll 1d10 for indeed.

    Also you have to edit anything you want to write afterwards or he'll put it down with the diceroll.

    indeed:
    1d10 7 [1d10=7]

    Geth, roll 4d10 for an example.

    an example:
    4d10 37 [4d10=7, 10, 10, 10]

    Geth, roll 4d10 for Example 1
    Geth, roll 4d10 for Example 2

    As you can see below, Geth doesn't pick up on the second dice roll, which makes especially GM turns really painful in CM (where you're generally rolling lots of things simultaneously).

    Example 1Geth, roll 4d10 for Example 2:
    4d10 17 [4d10=3, 1, 4, 9]

    Since this was very much a bonus feature that Icy coded in his own time, whether any fixes are made is heavily dependant on whether he has the time and inclination. I'll let him know though.

    Can we blame @Infidel for sabotaging Geth to force us to use Orokos? Seems like a thing he'd do. :P

    All Icy, he is aware but as mentioned he has to find the time.

    Sorry!

    Very much understandable! It's still a nice feature to have.
