Intended Use

While you can use NetDice however you want, NetDice was designed with the following workflow in mind:

• Make common stats and bonuses into custom widgets ( Strength, Base Attack, etc )
• Make rolls referencing these widgets ( To Hit = [Strength] + [Base Attack] )
• Bundle rolls together as appropriate ( Hits = [To Hit] - (0, 5, 10) )

That way, when you change a referenced variable (like Base Attack), all dependent rolls will automatically reflect the change.

NetDice can be used locally, in server/client mode, or e-mail mode. In networked mode, the server may grant GM privileges (the ability to kick players and see hidden rolls) to any client; by default the server is the GM. All rolls are rolled server-side to ensure there's no cheating going on client-side.
