Sakkaku (not the realm)

So, as we're entering the second half of the game and rolls might become more common or complicated, are there any issues I should know about? Not necessarily big problems, but little things that would make the life of everyone (or at least of a significant number of people) smoother if changed/added/moved/removed.

While I have a list of things to do on my side, it's very focused on ergonomics' issues regarding marginal cases (channeling, extra kept dice, etc.). And thus it reeks of "expert concerns": Nitpicks on real but extremely uncommon problems while there may be a big glaring mess just under my nose that I'm just unable to see anymore after acclimating myself to it for so much time.

Note that I firmly refuse to setup any spyware, like Google Analytics, on Sakkaku (hence why you've got no cookie banner on it) and I'm therefore fully reliant on returns from people to fix anything I didn't stumble on myself.

I have one! Brought on by the last event, actually.

Having a sample/common set of choices already entered makes it easy to forget to shift one of the default settings. I've also seen numerous "that's not the real TN, the TN is in the roll description," that makes me think this is a common issue. In my case, I left in a skill die that I didn't have.

Sure, that's indeed not a hard change to make. Site updated.

I don't really have any complaints with the roller itself, indeed I want to thank you for all the hard work. My one request is just for more feature parity between the roller and the probability section, specifically a way to do practice/dummy rolls because I like rolling dice when I'm bored and don't want to spam the actual roll list. This, obviously, is not an important request. Thanks again.

Actually, this one had been on my list for some time, just delayed because I didn't know where to put the option to activate it...

Well, it's there now (though I may eventually move the button to a less conspicuous place).

Thank you very much for the practice roller.

Another feature I would like to request is a way to select an elemental approach that shows up automatically on the roll some way. Admittedly this is because I keep for getting to list my approach in the roll description.

Is there a word for when you're writing a message about why you are not going to do something, then realize that you've built a list of arguments for doing it instead?

(it happens to me all the time, I'm very bad at arguing with myself)

Anyway.

That is way above and beyond what I expected, thank you. I was just looking for a way to pick/list the ring im using on a roll. You did every skill :shock:
