HOW TO USE OROKOS:
If you want to roll five ten-sided dice and keep two of them, with exploding 10s, that would be 5k2 in L5R terms. To make that work in Orokos, it would look like this:
5d10o10k2
The "5d10" is five ten-sided dice, the "o10" is exploding 10s, and the "k2" is keep highest.
If you wanted to keep the lowest dice, such as when you're sparring, you would use "l2" instead of "k2" in the example above.
5d10o10l2
If you don't want your dice to explode - such as with an unskilled roll - just remove the "o10" part of the equation and go from there:
5d10k2
The most important thing is that you have everything in its specific order: each "rule" must go in the order above (and there's a pull-down help list in the roller to explain it) or you'll just get an error message. For instance, you must have the "5d10" before the "o10" which must be before the "k2."
If you need to roll multiple dice (such as three rolls at once), you would prefix this with N#, where N is the number of times you want to roll. For instance, to roll the 5k2 listed above three times, you would need to put:
3#5d10o10k2
The last bit of coding applies if you're rolling a skill for which you have a relevant emphasis, such as the Honesty emphasis for Sincerity when making a Sincerity (Honesty) roll. In this case, you add the "roZ" coding to ensure that it rerolls dice results of "Z" or lower (in our case, Z will usually equal one). Using the above 5k2, that would look like this:
5d10ro1o10k2
