Dice Expressions/ja

Languages:  English  • 日本語

MapTool's chat window and macro system supports several of the most common dice expressions based on the formats XdY and dY.

In the tables below, the variable Y is described as the "number of sides" on the dice being rolled; in reality the dice roller is picking a random number between 1 and Y. The end result is the same.

Additionally, in the expressions, capital letters signify an argument you must provide, while the lower-case letters are a fixed part of the dice expression. For example, in the expression XdYsS, you replace X, Y, and T with numbers to indicate the number of dice, how many sides the dice have, and what number indicates a success, respectively. The lower case "d" and "s" are left alone.

Finally, note that when entering a dice roll directly in chat, you need to use the /roll Chat Command to execute the roll. In a macro, you would enclose the roll expression in square brackets. For example, if you wanted to roll one twenty sided die, one six sided die, and add 8 to the result:

Directly in chat:

/roll 1d20+1d6+8

In a macro:

[1d20+1d6+8]

You may also access these dice expressions directly using macro functions, see Category:Dice Function.
