Dice Roll in RP maps?

[vanilla_ice_cream]

Um to all you expert RP players out there, what exactly is the "dice roll" trigger? What is its intended effect? Some of the newer RP maps have this function and it is probably for TBC.

Its for getting random numbers.

If you play DND, you need many dices. (Correct me if I am wrong, I have never played.)

Oh i though you were asking how to create the triggers but no your just playing the maps. . . Blah RPs suck, There not even challengeing to make.

Heh, kind of odd comin from the moderator of this place, but I never figured out how to do it.. How do you?

Lets say you want 4 randomized things..

Make a trigger that randomizes 2 switchs.
Lets call these Switchs, Dice 1 and Dice 2

Then you can just go like:
Dice 1 Set
Dice 2 Set
You rolled a 1!!(Clear Dice 1 and 2)
Dice 1 Set
Dice 2 Clear
You Rolled a 2!!(Clear Dice 1 and 2)
Dice 1 Clear
Dice 2 Set
You Rolled a 3!!(Clear Dice 1 and 2)
Dice 1 Clear
Dice 1 Clear
-Do nothing (You need 1 doin nothing or else its just a non stop text message massacre)


There, that gives you 3 of the 6 per dye. that should help you out..i hope..

For two switches, each switch has two possible settings, so the total number of possibilities would be 2*2=4.
For three switches, each switch has two possible settings, so the total number of possibilities would be 2*2*2=8.

2^(#switches)=possible outcomes
