Chained Rolls

I'm not sure if this is possible, however, I could see this being an extra cool thing to have the ability for.  Would it be possible to create a Chained Roll.  I could see this being especially useful for Random Tables that are used to generate characters or adventures.  With the press of a button, (after defining the formulas/tables to roll and link off of), a complete set of rolls would be generated and logged for use to be expanded upon for the later game episode.  I find this type of automation could be helpful, especially for the beginning phases of starting a game, with all the characters that need to be generated, and even the adventure start, this would eliminate repetitious rolling,

For example, I'm wanting to play Mekton Zeta, but I have nobody to play it with.  I can import the character generation tables into Mythic GME and then roll the series of like eight rolls to build a character, but I have to select each table, it's a slow process right now.  I think this software could help streamline this process.

Hey there Senkusha! Chaind rolls are possible now with the custom tables creator. When creating tables you can link both the table and each individual entry to another table so that every time you roll on a table, it rolls on the linked tables (or if you land on a specific entry during a table roll it will roll on the linked entry.) Have you got to play with the custom table editor in 1.5 yet? I thought you had.

Oh!  I hadn't seen that option.  I'm in the middle of adding a few custom tables, but perhaps I totally missed this option!  Good to see you're a few steps ahead of me! :) 


Edit:  Yup!  Totally missed the BIG button at the bottom of the table and the Entry Links option.

Let me know how it goes!
