Add dice in walls only mode #13

Open desjaalman opened 3 years ago

desjaalman commented 3 years ago

Currently, there is an option to deal walls only, in order to draw haipai manually. However, the correct place to break the wall in this mode is normally determined by rolling dice, which are currently not implemented.

There should be 2 six-sided dice available when the walls only option is chosen, rollable by clicking on them. IRL autotables use a bubble in the middle of the mat (between the riichi stick detectors), but freely movable dice are also an option. The dice rolling in the middle could be a cosmetic addition to the dealing of haipai in regular mode as well.

The dice should have red 1s and 4s to increase flow. From what I can find the dice used for mahjong are female, so mirrored to standard dice.

Thank you for reading my blog

Thought the same, it would be more immersive and help with teaching the game in its entirety to people who will play IRL.
