All Flesh Must Be Eaten - Macro

Hi all, I'm looking for a Macro (or some automated means) to help with the special exploding dice in the All Flesh Must Be Eaten RPG.  All skill tests are done using a d10.  Then, the book says: On a natural 10, the player rolls a D6 and adds it to the result. If a 6 is rolled on the D6, it is added and rolled again, and so on. On a natural 1, the player rolls a D6 and subtracts the result. If a 1 is rolled on the D6, it is subtracted and rolled again, and so on. So using the exclamation point won't work for all of this.  I would first need something senses when a 10 is rolled and then proceeds with an exploding d6.  Also something that senses when 1 is rolled and rolls a "negative" exploding d6 (explodes on a 1 instead of 6) and then subtracts that from the result.

I think you're into API script territory here.  I've written several game mechanics scripts in the past.  What would you need for this one?  I haven't played All Flesh in about a decade...

I'd like a dice roller that queries you for a bonus or penalty and adds that to a d10 roll.  Then, if a natural 10 is rolled add an exploding d6 to the result.  If a natural 1 is rolled on the d10, roll a d6 that explodes on a result of 1 and subtract all that from the d10 result.

There are no modifiers based on skill?

As far as I can tell, this is is not possible with straight html and css.  You could set up a roll template with helper functions to roll an additional die (maybe) upon a one or ten.  Those, however, will not be added to the initial roll.

Yeah, this is basically d10 +/- d6! if the d10 was a crit or fumble. A roll template could handle that. If you use 3D dice, you'd always see the d6, but the chat output could hide the d6 if you roll in the 2-9 range on the d10. Edit: The rolltemplate would show the d10 result and the d6! result, you'd have to do the addition/subtraction manually in that case.

Is there a way for the d6 to explode on a roll of 1 instead of a 6?  So if I roll a 1 on d6, it will roll another d6.  If I roll a 1 again, it will roll another d6 and so on?
