Add a "Death Roll" button on PC sheets

[GittaNaba2021]

Hello,

It would be useful to add a "Death Roll" button (Stamina, no Push, no Stress Dice) on PC sheets. This feature will be useful for all Alien games, and it is currently not very practical for a GM to trigger such a roll, or have PC do it themselves (as it must ignore stress). Also, clicking on a button labeled "Death Roll" adds some pressure to PC.

Thanks for listening !

I am not sure what table you are talking about rolling against here???
The << Roll Crit >> button rolls against the Critical Injuries table.

Hello Paul, sorry I should have explained this better. This is not a table neither a critical injury. When a player is about to die, they do a Death Roll to check if they survive or are outright killed, kinda like D&D death saving throws. Core Rulebook, page 99: "If you suffer a critical injury listed as fatal, you must make a Death Roll when the listed time runs out. A Death Roll is a roll for STAMINA, but you cannot push the roll and you are not allowed to roll any Stress Dice. If the Death Roll fails, you die. If you succeed, you linger on but you must make another Death Roll when the listed amount of time has passed again."

Death Rolls are also required when encountering deadly hazards (Core Rulebook page 106, "Other Hazards")

Ah OK. Thank you for clarifying. Once I have the 0.8.x version of the system fully tested I will see what I can do.

@GittaNaba2021, technically the user can context-click on Stamina and input the necessary modifiers to ignore stress. I'm not sure a whole new button needs to be added for this since it is basically asking to introduce something redundant that has the potential to introduce more bugs than benefits. Ultimately it is up to Paul to decide, of course.
