Peacekeepers of the Vast/Peacekeepers of the Vast:Dice Macros
Template:TOCrightAll commands are case-sensitive. If something doesn't work, try checking all letter cases. Some case-insensitivity has been programmed in.
Basic Tests
Basic Test Rolls are your Xd20 rolls for most tests. They can be buffed by Momentum, and may provoke complications.
There are three variables:
- How many dice you are rolling (1-5, make sure to include your Momentum, do not include Infinity Point dice)
- The Target Number for a success (expertise + trait) (0-21)
- Your Character's Focus, if any, in the skill (0-5)
The input pattern is: ! (Number of dice) t (target number) f (focus)
Example
Max Rezal is shooting his Rifle at a tinbot. He has an 11 Coordination, and 3 Ballistics Expertise with a Focus of 1; therefore his TN is 14.
Max's player would type: !2t14f1 into Discord.
The Dice Parser bot will read this and return a result along the lines of:
You had 2 successes, and rolled: 4,4
The Dice Parser bot will call out complications, and automatically double successes that are under your focus threshold:
COMPLICATION! You also had 2 successes, and rolled: 1,20
Damage
Damage Rolls are usually expressed as 1 + XE on your character sheet; they contain a bonus from your stats as well as base damage from the weapon's type. They use a special way of reading a d6, wherein only 3 sides have value: 1, 2, and Effect; the other sides return a result of 0. Effects may do additional damage, either in straight dice or additional types, depending on your weapon.
There is only one variable:
- How many dice you are rolling (make sure to include your damage bonus, reloads, or other modifiers)
The input pattern is ! (Number of dice) damage
Example
Max Rezal just shot his Rifle at a tinbot, and hit. A rifle's base damage is 1 + 5E, and Max gets a +2E bonus from his Awareness score. Therefore, he's rolling 7 effect dice for damage.
Max's player would type: !7damage into Discord.
The Dice Parser bot will read this and return a result along the lines of:
You rolled 8 and 0 effects. You had a +1 and your die results were: 4,2,1,2,1,1,3
The Dice Parser will count effects, and by default adds the 1 base damage to the result of your effect dice.
Effect Dice
Effect dice may be, on occasions, rolled for non-damage results, such as determining career earnings, or tariffs on items during acquisition. In these cases, less parsing is required.
There are two variables:
- The base additive number
- How many dice you are rolling
The input pattern is ! (base additive) p (Number of dice) CD
Example
In character creation, the Corporate Executive career offers an Earnings of 3 + 3E; thus, the player would roll 3 effect dice and add whatever results to the base additive of 3.
The player would type: !3p3CD into Discord.
The Dice Parser bot will read this and return a result along the lines of:
You rolled 5 and 0 effects. You had a +3 and your die results were: 4,1,1
