It replaces one d6 in a given roll with an exploding die, and in the special case of the exploding die rolling a 1, it removes the 1 and the highest die roll from the roll total.

Commands:

!wd [[dice expression]] example: !wd [[4d6+2]] rolls 3 normal d6s, and one Wild Die
!wwd [[dice expression]] command to whisper rolls to GM
!wd --help posts the help menu in the chat.

Examples

You can reference character stats in your rolls.

Example:

Using the Star Wars D6 character sheet, this API command makes a Dexterity roll for character "Bob".

!wd [[(@{Bob|dexterity} -@{Bob|WoundMod} +@{Bob|Force_Up} + ?{Dice mods|0})d6 + @{Bob|dexteritypip} + ?{Other Mods(pip)|0}]]

The dice expression is based on the sheet's original macro for making a dexterity roll:

&{template:swd6} {{name=Dexterity}} {{Roll=[[(@{Bob|dexterity} -@{Bob|WoundMod} +@{Bob|Force_Up} + ?{Dice mods|0} -1)d6cf0cs7 + @{Bob|dexteritypip} + ?{Other Mods(pip)|0} + 1d6@{Bob|wilddie}]]}}
