# Chat Dice Rolls

_By Chairmander · Dec 27, 2022_

By opening the chat (default keybinding: Enter) and prepending a message with “!” you can create a dice roll through chat. They follow the same system as the [dice URLs](https://feedback.talespire.com/kb/article/talespire-url-scheme) and as such contain the same features. For the full description of what is supported and how exactly, please refer to that article, but here’s a short run down of examples with what is possible:

-   `!1d20` Normal dice rolls
    
-   `!Rapier:1d20+4` Named dice rolls, modifiers in dice rolls
    
-   `!2d20-4+3d12` Several different dice types in one roll, modifiers
    
-   `!1d20+2/1d20+2` Two separate dice groups (that are separately summed up) in one roll, modifiers
    

The system is subject to the same base limitations as the internal dice rolls and the URLs:

-   Per dice roll the maximum number of dice across all dice groups is 40.
    
-   Currently labels/names on several groups isn’t supported (only the first label specified shows)
    
-   Not all possible arrangements with basic arithmetic are properly supported, eg: `!7-d6`, which drops the 7 at the start
    
-   More features are definitely planned like being able to drop the lower or higher of two dice, …  
    This is just the first iteration.
