Add Macros from various games

Open ianfhunter opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

What is a Macro?

It will be more likely for players to use GNOLL if their favourite game/system is easy to use. One part of this is having some built-in support for various systems via the Macro functionality.

Macros allow a user to retrieve a previously defined dice. Meaning they do not have to repeat lengthy dice definitions in their GNOLL statements.

This is a general ticket for adding Macros of different types and sources.

What Macros to add?

Here are some sources of inspiration for non standard dice we may like to add built-ins for:

  • https://www.dicecollector.com/THE_DICE_THEME_GAMES.html
  • https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/37741/dice-dicey-love-affair

You can also check for the "Macro Request" label in our github issues tab.

Creating Macros

The best place to learn how to create a macro is to either read our Documentation or to look in the builtins folder at previous work.

Contribution Steps

Want to help out GNOLL and add a macro? Here's how you can contribute:

  • Create your macro in a new or existing .dice file inside the builtins/ folder.
  • make a Pull Request
  • Await a review from the repository adminstrator(s).
