Feature Request - Weighted Random Tables #13

Open JustinThomason opened 3 months ago

JustinThomason commented 3 months ago

Thanks for this plug-in! I've not delved into Solo RPGs myself, but as a GM, I LOVE the super simple dice roller, but I really like the random table templates. Having simple text files that can be copied from vault to vault is a real boon. The one thing I would personally love to see would be a way to create simple weighted pick lists using a dice roll.

I'm imagining something like a specific Property name like "tableType" with specific values - maybe "Pick" and "Roll XdY". Based on that would modify the behavior of how the next set of lines are chosen. I'm not sure how feasible something like this would be, but I'd love to be able to build up (for instance) 2d6 encounter tables and the like that could easily be called on. Thanks for considering.

Bell curves have been added in version 0.4.3!

You can now add "Xd" at the end of the note name, or at the end of specific section if you use template properties. So if you have a note with 11 entries, you can rename it into "Encounters 2d" and it'll be similar to a 2d6 roll.

Hope it helps!
