| 156 | 1 HOW TO CREATE A NEW DIE ROLLER |
| 2 | |
| 3 So you want a make a new roller or add a new option? here's a short guide. | |
| 4 | |
| 5 | |
| 6 Step 1: Create a new die roller sub class. | |
| 7 | |
| 8 You need to derive a new die roller class from an existing die roller class. | |
| 9 Most likely, this will be the std die roller class. | |
| 10 | |
| 11 The basics would look like this: | |
| 12 | |
| 13 class new_roller(std): | |
| 14 def __init__(self,source=[]): | |
| 15 std.__init__(self,source) | |
| 16 ..... | |
| 17 | |
| 18 .... | |
| 19 | |
| 20 Step 2: Implement new methods and/or override existing ones. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 Now, you just need to implement any new die options and override any | |
| 23 existing ones that you want to act differently. The most common options | |
| 24 to override are the sum and __str__ functions. Sum is used to determine | |
| 25 the result of the rolls and __str__ is used to display the results in | |
| 26 a user friendly string. | |
| 27 | |
| 28 For example: | |
| 29 | |
| 30 class new_roller(std): | |
| 31 def __init__(self,source=[]): | |
| 32 std.__init__(self,source) | |
| 33 ..... | |
| 34 | |
| 35 def myoption(self,param): | |
| 36 .... | |
| 37 | |
| 38 def sum(self): | |
| 39 .... | |
| 40 | |
| 41 def __str__(self): | |
| 42 .... | |
| 43 | |
| 44 REMEMBER! | |
| 45 Always return an instance of your die roller for each option expect str and sum. | |
| 46 | |
| 47 | |
| 48 Step 3: | |
| 49 | |
| 50 Modify Utils.py | |
| 51 | |
| 52 You need to make some minor modifications to utils.py to facilitate | |
| 53 your new roller. You need to a) add an import call for your roller, | |
| 54 and b) add your roller to the list of available rollers. | |
| 55 | |
| 56 For example: | |
| 57 | |
| 58 from die import * | |
| 59 # add addtional rollers here | |
| 60 from myroller import * | |
| 61 .... | |
| 62 | |
| 63 rollers = ['std','wod','d20','myroller'] | |
| 64 | |
| 65 Step 4: You're done! | |
| 66 | |
| 67 Test it and make sure it works. When you think its done, send it to | |
| 68 the openrpg developers and they might include it in future releases. | |
