===COUNT Option=== | |||
'''Introduced''': Version 1.3.b41 | |||
The COUNT option executes a statement for a specified number of times, storing the number of the current iteration in a variable called ''[[Macros:Special_Variables:roll.count|roll.count]]''. | |||
====Usage==== | |||
<source lang="mtmacro" line> | |||
[COUNT(num): body] | |||
[COUNT(num, separator): body] | |||
</source> | |||
The ''[[roll.count]]'' variable will take on values from 0 to (number of loops - 1). The optional separator (default ", ") is printed between each iteration. | |||
====Example==== | |||
<source lang="mtmacro" line> | |||
[h:numHits=3] | |||
[COUNT(numHits): Damage = Damage + 1d12] | |||
</source> | |||
This will iterate the ''Damage = Damage + 1d12'' operation 3 times, separating the result of each iteration with the default separator (a comma). An optional second argument to COUNT() allows the setting of a different separator. | |||

COUNT Option
Introduced: Version 1.3.b41
The COUNT option executes a statement for a specified number of times, storing the number of the current iteration in a variable called roll.count.
Usage
[COUNT(num): body]
[COUNT(num, separator): body]The roll.count variable will take on values from 0 to (number of loops - 1). The optional separator (default ", ") is printed between each iteration.
Example
[h:numHits=3]
[COUNT(numHits): Damage = Damage + 1d12]This will iterate the Damage = Damage + 1d12 operation 3 times, separating the result of each iteration with the default separator (a comma). An optional second argument to COUNT() allows the setting of a different separator.
