    When using multiple dice in d20Pro 2.03, such as 4D6, only the final total result is shown. This isn't very ideal in situations where you need to say... roll a certain number of dice and then subtract the lowest roll etc... I would make few requests:

    1) The dice results in the game log show the individual result of each roll and then the total.

    Ex:
    Judge GM rolls 4d6 and gets: 6 + 5 + 3 + 5 = 19

    2) Two additional mod rules, consisting of boxes with an numeral entry, one listed as "Drop lowest roll" and one as "Drop highest roll", each corresponding to the number of dice dropped.

    Ex: "1" entered in the Drop Lowest box
    Judge GM rolls 4d6 - 1 low and gets: 6 + 5 + 3 + 5 = 19 - 3 = 16

    Ex: "2" entered in the Drop Highest box
    Judge GM rolls 6d6 - 2 high and gets: 6 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 25 - 6 - 5 = 14

    3) Change the current modifier system to two different options: a) add modifier to each die or b) add modifier to total

    Ex: "2" entered in the mod to each die box
    a) Judge GM rolls 3(d6 + 2) and gets: 7 + 4 + 8 = 19

    Ex: "2" entered as the regular modifier(as current implementation)
    b) Judge GM rolls 3d6 + 2 and gets: 3 + 4 + 6 = 13 + 2 = 15

    4) An additional box to repeat a particular roll

    Ex: "6" entered in the Repeat Roll box on a regular 3d6 roll
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 6 + 5 + 3 = 14
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 6 + 5 + 5 = 16
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 7 + 3 + 4 = 14
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 1 + 5 + 6 = 12
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 6 + 2 + 5 = 13
    Judge GM rolls 3d6 and gets: 3 + 5 + 2 = 10

    I believe these changes would put d20pro's dice roller up to par with similar products. The current dice roller is limited enough to make certain rolls a bit of a chore.

    Those are excellent suggestions Bocephus. I'm forwarding them to the development staff.
