You can find this awesome tool at http://anydice.com/.
In the command box at the top you can enter either a single command, or multiple ones to compare the results directly. Each output command goes on a separate line.
Sample commands:
output 2d10 | Shows the probabilities for non-exploding 2d10 |
output 2d [explode d10] | Shows the probabilities for exploding 2d10 |
output [highest 2 of 3d [explode d10]] | Keeps the highest 2 on exploding 3d10 Check out the odds of 19! |
It's a pretty slick tool and great for quickly determining odds of complex dice probabilities - an important consideration in any game design activity. The functionality goes quite a bit further than what I've illustrated here, including a couple of different ways of graphing the rolls, the odds of getting at least or not more than a certain number, and more functions.
I've previously donated to this site - if you make good use of it, consider doing the same. I support quality work!
I see 29 also shows similar behaviour to 19.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's the Dark Tower Katet causing this.. . .
All I remember in Dark Tower is a guy wandering around a desert. And some dude with a crow eating a mule.
DeleteI assume it got better?
Depends on your point of view. Ended up being an 8 novel series and is written by an author you say you don't like.
DeleteI liked the post apocalyptic setting, insane computers mixed with mutants, vampires that feed on emotions and cowboys.
A lot like gamma world, even has robot chickens.
