HEY! So unlike most ndim feature requests, this is something that's actually doable without having access to the source code (albeit in a roundabout way). I threw this together and added it to FE, here's the code to add this to any NDim board (Code Editor > Below the Board):

Code <script> var inlineClick; if($(".innertable .innercontent input[value='B']").length) { $(".innertable .innercontent input[value='B']").parent("td").append('<input class="buttonstyle" type="button" value="Roll" onmouseover="[roll]XdY[/roll]" onclick="var numDice=prompt(\'How many dice?\',\'\');var numSides=prompt(\'How many sides?\',\'\');insertBBCode(inputBox,\'[roll]\',numDice+\'d\'+numSides+\'[/roll]\',true,document.getElementById(\'fullreply\'))" />'); } if ($("#sendform input:button").length) { inlineClick = $("#sendform input:button")[0].onclick; $("#sendform input:button")[0].onclick = null; $("#sendform input:button").click(function(e) { parseRoll("#sendform textarea#fastreply"); }); $("#sendform input:button")[0].onclick = inlineClick; } if ($("#frform input:button").length) { inlineClick = $("#frform input:button")[0].onclick; $("#frform input:button")[0].onclick = null; $("#frform input:button").click(function(e) { parseRoll("#frform textarea#frbox"); }); $("#frform input:button")[0].onclick = inlineClick; } if ($('form[name="addreply"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]').length) { inlineClick = $('form[name="addreply"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick; $('form[name="addreply"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick = null; $('form[name="addreply"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]').click(function(e) { parseRoll('form[name="addreply"] textarea#fullreply'); }); $('form[name="addreply"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick = inlineClick; } // full PMs if ($("form[name='sendpost'] input:button[value='Send']").length) { inlineClick = $("form[name='sendpost'] input:button[value='Send']")[0].onclick; $("form[name='sendpost'] input:button[value='Send']")[0].onclick = null; $("form[name='sendpost'] input:button[value='Send']").click(function(e) { parseRoll('form[name="sendpost"] textarea#fullreply'); }); $("form[name='sendpost'] input:button[value='Send']")[0].onclick = inlineClick; } // quick PMs if ($('form[name="sendpost"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]').length) { inlineClick = $('form[name="sendpost"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick; $('form[name="sendpost"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick = null; $('form[name="sendpost"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]').click(function(e) { parseRoll('form[name="sendpost"] textarea#fullreply'); }); $('form[name="sendpost"] input:button[value="Add Reply"]')[0].onclick = inlineClick; } // fast PMs if ($("#fpmform input:button").length) { inlineClick = $("#fpmform input:button")[0].onclick; $("#fpmform input:button")[0].onclick = null; $("#fpmform input:button").click(function(e) { parseRoll("#fpmform textarea#fpbox"); }); $("#fpmform input:button")[0].onclick = inlineClick; } function parseRoll(textElement) { var fastReplyText = $(textElement).val(); var validationRegEx = new RegExp(/(?:\[quote.*\][\S\s]*Rolled:[\S\s]*\[\/quote\])|(.*Rolled:.*)/gi); var validationResult = Array.from(fastReplyText.matchAll(validationRegEx)); if (!!validationResult.length && !!validationResult.some(match => !!match[1])) { $(textElement).val(fastReplyText + " [color=red]!!!POSSIBLE CHEATING DETECTED!!![/color]"); return false; } var rollRegEx = /\[roll\]([0-9]{1,2})d([0-9]{1,3})\[\/roll\]/g; var m; while ((m = rollRegEx.exec(fastReplyText)) !== null) { if (m.index === rollRegEx.lastIndex) { rollRegEx.lastIndex++; } m.forEach((match, groupIndex) => { var rollString = match.match(/([0-9]{1,2})d([0-9]{1,3})/gi); if (rollString === null) return; var results = rollDice(rollString[0]); var str = "[i]Rolled: [b]" + results.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0) + "[/b] ("; for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) { str += results[i]; if (i !== results.length - 1) { str += "+"; } } str += ") [" + rollString + "][/i]"; fastReplyText = fastReplyText.replace(match, str); }); } $(textElement).val(fastReplyText); return true; } function rollDice(rollString) { var diceValues = rollString.split('d'); var results = []; for (var i = 0; i < diceValues[0]; i++) { results.push(Math.ceil(Math.random() * diceValues[1])); } return results; } </script>

I'll update this post if/when I update this script. Right now it only works via Fast Reply (like I said it's roundabout so I have to manually hook it up to any button that can submit a post).

HOW IT WORKS
Just post the following (for example):

[ roll ]2d6[ / roll ]

(obv remove the spaces first)

Also, as a very basic way of not allowing people to fake a dice roll, if you try to straight-up post "Rolled:", it'll tack on a message letting the world know you could be a dirty cheater

Also also, if you have any improvement suggestions or find any bugs with it LMK!

PATCH NOTES
+ Now works with Add Reply, Fast Reply, and Quick Reply Box
+ Now works with PMs
+ No longer detects as cheater when quoting someone's roll
+ Added Roll button on Add Reply screen

MVP

Helllllllll yawwwww

This is gonna be a game changer for games here, we can come up with all kinds of new things to use it for. RnF folks are you ready for FE Dicevivor to become a thing?

Very curious to see what ORG hosts can come up with too, either for challenges or twists or swaps or who knows

Who's gonna find a way to run a dice based Mafia

FE dicevivor bb omg

Rolled: 69 !!!POSSIBLE CHEATING DETECTED!!!

Rolled: 10 (6+4) [2d6]

Rolled: 75 (46+29) [2d100]

It works wow love it

FE dicevivor bb omg

Gonna be great!

Looks like I might have to resurrect another go at The Quick and The Dead mafia, and use dice rolls instead of Rock-Paper-Scissors.

[roll]2d6[/roll]

Rolled: 6 (3+3) [2d6]

You meant ADD REPLY instead of Fast Reply smh

Rolled: 6 !!!POSSIBLE CHEATING DETECTED!!!
