Dice Rolls Categorized by Color

The goal of this feature is to make player macros easier for the GM to interpret. There would be additional options for dice rolls so that a player could type /roll [Color] [Dice/Math] and the result of the roll would be displayed in the color specified. This way the GM could ask their players to make damage rolls and attack rolls different colors. This would make it easier for the GM to keep combat moving and easily interpret the large amount of information they need to for combat.

Its a good idea don't like the suggested syntax though something like /roll [colour] [dice/math] would be better imo.
That's a good point. I edited my post accordingly.

Just a current workaround. If you are using macros I suggest the following: /roll attack 1d20+5 The results will state it is an attack. /roll damage 1d8+5 The results will state it is damage. That is how I keep it separate. - Gauss

Using /me is better than normal text I find (for the big orange box) as the normal text tends to get lost when doing a lot of rolls.

Good point Pigalot. Some people use that as well. - Gauss
