[FEAT] "???" to denote a card that is randomly pulled as reversed

[jackhagley]

I have to list cards twice if I want them to come up as reversed and not. This does not seem an efficient use of space or cards. It would be better if there was a way to denote that the card could come up either way.

Introduce the ??? operator to have a card randomly be pulled as Up or Down

Hey @jackhagley, I thought the single-line ::: & multiline ?? separators achieve this? 🤔

Those are the reversed ones? The ??? I propose gives a 50/50 chance whether to reverse the card or not. So:

Question ??? Answer

Half of the time it would start with the question, and half of the time with the answer

First, thanks for this great plugin! 😊

I was wondering the same thing though. The only solution I came up with is to duplicate the cards

Q :: A
Q ::: A

But of course, the tracking is a bit messed up...

Would be great to introduce a new symbol for "two-way" cards!

I do this 50/50 a lot manually. It would really help me if I could have it multiline reverse. Or at the very least, if its a feature you are willing to accept, i can just code it.

Hi

I've put together: Summary of suggestions regarding flashcard ordering whilst reviewing

I think that this can be solved using the combination of:

1. The single-line ::: & multiline ?? separators as described by @st3v3nmw
2. Using enhanced deck randomization as per Card decks aren't completely randomized currently implemented, awaiting release.

With that combination, there is a 50/50 chance that side A would be shown first, and 50/50 for side B. Note that these would be interspersed with the other cards within that deck.

Does that suit your requirements, or would there still be some functionality missing?

@ronzulu I’m not sure this supplies the granularity that a new operator can supply.
