Re: [Module] RL-Dice

Another major update! Can now reroll all dice with ^++ or ^-- (similar to all bonus) Metamethods and Classes!!! Dice_odds module included (can even give the probability for rerolls and bonus) Hopefully a few people find this library useful. I think as far as development goes, it's finished. There a...
