In script dice roll

You have several options.

• If the user used the /roll command (or an alias), the msg.type will be "rollresult" and the msg.content will be a JSON string describing the roll they made.
• If the user included one or more inline rolls in their message, msg.inlinerolls will be defined, and contain an array of roll data.
• You can generate the same randomness as a die roll with the randomInteger function. For example, if you need to "roll" 1d20 from the script, you can use var dieValue = randomInteger(20);
• You can send a complete roll to the dice engine with sendChat, and capture the result by supplying a third parameter to the function. For example:

sendChat("Riley", "/roll 1d20+4", function(ops) {
    // ops will be an ARRAY of command results.
    var rollresult = ops[0];
    //Now do something with rollresult, just like you would during a chat:message event...
});

Great, thanks Brian. I appreciate the info.

I just tried the sendchat code and got the following error:

For reference, the error message generated was: ReferenceError: rollresult is not defined at Sandbox.<anonymous> (evalmachine.<anonymous>:95:279) at eval (

log('Before Send Chat');
sendChat("Riley", "/roll 1d20+4", function(ops) { 
    log("Inside Send Chat");
});
log("After Send Chat");
