In dndR: Dungeons & Dragons Functions for Players and Dungeon Masters

dndR Version 2.0.0

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• New function: encounter_creator -- picks a set of creature experience point (XP) values that constitute a balanced encounter of specified difficulty and given party composition information
• New function: creature_list -- identifies Dungeons & Dragons creatures based on user specifications of various criteria (e.g., creature type, experience point value, size, etc.)
• New function: creature_text -- retrieves full description text of creature(s) specified by user
• Adding support for re-rolling of 1s in roll result
• Streamlined internal mechanics of roll such that dice with any number (integer) of faces can be rolled (e.g., "2d57", "d13", etc.)
• Adding 5 spells to spell_list and spell_text (Antagonize, Gate Seal, Spirit of Death, Spray of Cards, and Warp Sense)
• Vignettes restructured! Now categories of functions are housed in separate vignettes for--hopefully--easier navigation of the bits of this package that are most relevant to you

dndR Version 1.3.1

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• Fixed curly apostrophes in spell names (causes failure to find spell with spell_text and spell_list)

dndR Version 1.3.0

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• New function: spell_list -- identifies official Dungeons & Dragons spells based on user specifications of various criteria (e.g., school of magic, which character class list has the spell, casting time, etc.)
• New function: spell_text -- retrieves full description text of spell(s) specified by user
• New function: probability_plot -- makes plot of frequency of dice outcome for specified dice number/type and number of rolls
• New function: mod_calc -- identifies roll modifier for a specified ability score
• roll description is more detailed/useful now (rather than simple recapitulation of the function title)
• Added specific contributing instructions (see CONTRIBUTING.md)
• Added function contributor names to the description fields of existing contributed functions (pc_level_calc and party_diagram) per CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines

There are no ERRORs, WARNINGs, or NOTEs returned by devtools::check()

dndR Version 1.1.0

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• New supported class: Artificer (Source: "Eberron")
• New supported races: Bugbear, Changeling, Goblin, Hobgoblin, Kalashtar, Orc, Shifter, and Warforged (Source: "Eberron")
• New function: npc_creator -- picks race and job of some number of non-player characters
• New function: pc_level_calc -- identifies player level based on earned XP
• roll now supports three-sided dice (i.e., "d3")
• roll now includes a show_dice argument that accepts either TRUE or FALSE (the default). If show_dice = T (and more than one die is rolled), the individual die results will be returned as a message in addition to the sum of their results. Note that the behavior of "2d20" is unchanged and both values are returned as a two-column, one-row dataframe
