So now, if you pass in &quot;1d6&quot; or &quot;1d1000&quot; or whatever it will. I have also pasted the code here in the post below. PS. I hate that I have to zip the file in order to upload it.

[QUOTE="FormerlyDickensC, post: 4104415, member: 53954"] [b]A bug fix[/b] Had to make a fix to the code where if you passed a die-string using only one die it would malfunction. So now, if you pass in "1d6" or "1d1000" or whatever it will. I have also pasted the code here in the post below. PS. I hate that I have to zip the file in order to upload it. [CODE] public static class Dice { private static Random randomGenerator = new Random(); /// <summary> /// Pass a die roll string in any standard d20-type format, including /// parenthetical rolls, and it will output a string breaking down each /// roll as well as summing the total. This works very nicely. The code was /// hacked from java code from Malar's RPG Dice Version 0.9 By Simon Cederqvist /// (simon.cederqvist(INSERT AT HERE) gmail.com). 13.March.2007 /// http://users.tkk.fi/~scederqv/Dice/ /// His same license still applies to this code.
