Release notes on recent improvements

Amazing, thanks for these improvements, folks!

Star Wars FFG dice

There was a restriction on how many dice were shown during rolling. Now you can throw whole handfuls of dice at Jedi/Imperial scum.

This is fantastic, but I had a thought. I don't know how possible it is, but it would be nice for a GM to be able to add additional dice to a player's roll. Like if I roll to try to hack a computer, I don't innately know the difficulty, so it's not easy to add the number of difficulty or challenge dice I need to roll.

If the GM could adjust the roll after and add those into my roll, then I wouldn't have to use one of the options that are currently available: Guessing, waiting to hear how difficult it is before I roll, or needing to have the GM calculate my results after he manually rolls the difficulty dice.

Hopefully I make sense? Not 100% sure, but I swear that it's clear in my head!

That definitely ☝️ Allowing the GM to correct the dice pool is great!

And there used to be a bug with triumphs/despair not counting as success/fails as well. (Probably still there)
This was on a genesis game, but I’m betting it works the same for SW

Speaking of players posts what about keeping their character avatar when you edit their post I used to fix spelling mistakes for a while until I noticed that then I decided if I could figure it out better to leave the character picture.

You could always upload a copy of their character sheet and then "post as" that when you edit a player's post. But that's a big workaround. I agree, I'd like to be able to edit players' posts without their avatars disappearing

I shudder to think about GMing for a player character with that high a Force Rating...

...But this is a huge improvement. Thanks! (I second the request to finally fix the Triumph/Despair bug that CESN mentioned. And that disappearing avatar thing.)

Great stuff!

Awesome awesome developments! Thank you, Keleth and Adam! It's great to see this site we all love getting even better.

The extension dark mode is still a bit better. I think it is an issue with the background image
I find that it only works in game forums. In other, like this forum, the image buton only offers the URL option.
Sames goes for the note function btw

It makes sense for the Notes button because in a public forum it would have to list every single user on the site. No idea about the image thing, though

I didn’t want to make it easier for spammers to add images.

That makes perfect sense. So it is not a bug, its a feature :D

It’s by design - but it might be a stupid design.

Release notes 9th July 2021

Tables (custom character sheets)

A table tag has been added to the bbcode. They don't support nesting yet and this is the first release - so let's see how it goes.
Tables were added to better support custom character sheets.

So instead of this:


You can do this:


Using the table tag:


I've tried to keep the syntax simple:
In a table tag, each line (hard return) is a new row and each | separates a column.

(shout out to Public Repository of Custom Games Sheets for all your custom character sheet needs)

Spoilers on character sheets

...and if you're using other character sheets then spoilers now work on those too.

Size bonus used in D&D 3/3.5 sheets

Size is now taken into account on D&D 3/3.5 character sheets (thanks to Demagor and flatworldsedge for reporting the bug).

Note. There are still a number of bugs in d20 systems - mainly where ability bonuses are doubled up in edit mode (although there are other bugs too). I'm going to be looking at fixing all d20 sheets soon.

Spotify tag

This was SavageBob's suggestion. If you get the "share" link from something in spotify (a track, an album, an artist, a show, an episode) then put it inside a spoitfy tag then it'll embed it in your post.

Wow, that is all really awesome! I especially like the tables thing.

Thank you, Adam!

Great stuffs!! :D intense custom sheet editing being audible

Amazing!
