Roll results

[Biswut]

HiHo,

in some games, like Europe Engulfed, a lot of dices are used and every six (or every 5 and 6) hits.
I knoe I can show the stotal of the dice, but is there any possibility to show how many 1,2,3,4,5,6 are rolled ?

Last time I had to roll 54 dice in Stalingrad, sitting in front of my screen searching for 6's

best regards
Chris

The standard solution for this is to define a Symbolic Dice Button. You can assign a text name and numerical value to each face, so for example you can give the face "6" a numerical value of 1 and all other faces a value of 0. Then the numerical total of the roll will be the number of "6's rolled.

Hi RK,

th@nx for the hint.

In this cases sometime a "6" hits and other times a "5" and "6".

Then you'll need to define two different buttons for the two cases.

Dear Rodney,

I tried but I couldn't find the place to set the number of dice.
The player must be able to choose the number of dices.

I see option only for nomal dice but not for symbolic dices.

Bes regards and th@nx for your suppoprt

You're right. There isn't this option for symbolic dice. That means you'd have to define a different button for every possible number of dice. This may not be as bad as it sounds, because you can combine them into menus and sub-menus using the Toolbar Menu component.

th@nx again.
I will still have to count the results in the future.
