I wanted to try out using Perchance for one of my hobbies which is Warhammer. Wanted to try out making a dice roller. I got the user input on how much dice they are rolling, but after that I am a bit lost. Parts I need help on are how to make them roll like 10 different dice and show the individual values, how I can add individual d+1, make affected rolls, etc. would also want to add lockable list to lock certain rolls. I know what I want to do but implementation is a bit of an issue.

    I would always recommend making lists like so:

    output
      (Content Here)
    

    And not like output = (Content Here). This is because there is an advanced trick to create multiline templating with it (see Perchance Snippets - Joining Items in a List with $output). But you don’t have to change it right now, but for a future reference.

    Next, I would recommend creating default values for each of your inputs to the plugins by adding them on your lists panel e.g.

    numDice = 0
    buffs = 0
    debuffs = 0
    

    This would solve the NaN problem upon first opening the generator. Other than that, I think what you have set up should be working with the changes.

      @VioneT Thanks for the help! Could you also give me a sample of how to use your plugin in the context of my generator? because the current generator has a buff and debuff function which adds and minuses. there is also number of dice to roll.
