Which really make demoing this "product" difficult.
While I was at it, I split my "taverns" document into a number of real
tables that I could pull up.
And changing the hotkey to F12 so that it is easier to access on the
laptop.
Oh, and let's have the displayed message contain a little more details
so that when we jump backwards through the history, we understand more
what we are seeing.
I realized that a DM Screen isn't really what I want. If I want
information about a particular rule or the magic school, then I want it
to pop up, and then go away.
A dice table is a direct translation of a gaming table from a book,
where the table has a stated dice expression, and each entry has a
numeric range. Most tables can now be taken as is from published
sources.
Also, if a message from a randomly rolled table contains a dice
expression, like Found 2d8 scrolls, the expression is automatically
substituted.
Finally if a message contains something like:
You found a [wolf/fox/badger].
The displayed message will only include on of those entries.
I have a semblance of code giving me functions to help me run my D&D
games. The README needs a lot more love, but the code is generally tidy.
Time to add some tables...
