What's this? Gauss and then Stephen both post to the forums within the last week...  Must be a shift in the time space continuum.  A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

This script fills an often requested feature.  I might try and hack modify this to work with PF...

Very nice, my players will like this. They asked me to do GM rolls of their skills for certain rolls that they don't want the know the result. Like navigating through a forest and getting lost because they roll low on their survival roll. This will still let them roll their fate but not know the results :)

Aaron berated me into cacheing some values to speed it up and to help with efficiency (he even wrote a code sample leaving me without excuses.)
Also making it so you can use it blind or in the open.
Update likely tonight.

Thanks Aaron.

Updated Script

:-)

Updated the script.... blind rolls have DMG look... open rolls have PHB look

Would it be possible to adapt it for pathfinder ?

I love this script!

Yes. I think Vince is thinking about doing that.

Excellent work, Stephen. Honestly, this is one of those things I didn't realize I needed as a DM until you pointed out that I needed it as a DM. :)

Thank you!

Modified Stephen's awesome script so that it can be used with the Pathfinder Community Sheet.

I was able to get it to work by removing the double quotes around ${values.who} from this line;

sendChat('API - QuantumRoll', `/w "${values.who}" Secret roll sent to GM. I'm sure its fine.`);

new line;

sendChat('API - QuantumRoll', `/w ${values.who} Secret roll sent to GM. I'm sure its fine.`);

I've also updated the Pathfinder Community Sheet version here(BlindChecksPFCommunity.js)
and added a version that "should" work with the Pathfinder Official (BlindChecksPFOfficial.js)
