Not a bug. Those are narrated by Gollum.

Getting a lot of dropped rolls in some games. It seems to be when multiple rolls are made in one post, and all the rolls are coming from the same [ table] group. Multiple times when I've used Attack and Damage rolls from my attack table, one of them will be dropped, usually the first one.

Can you give me a bit more information?

You click on a roll from a table and it doesn't appear as a new roll in the list? Are you clicking lots of rolls in fast succession? Perhaps the second click before the first one's processed?

It adds it as a roll, but it fails to show up after I click post. So I'll see both rolls when I'm posting, but after I post only one roll will appear and I have to edit the post to re-add it.

It's happened to multiple people in my DCC game, and you can read here that people have commented about it: https://gamersplane.com/forums/thread/23196/?page=12

But it's when you've selected from a roll table?

Not 100%, it's always done that, but it seems to have increased a lot since the table functionality has been added. Or maybe it's because other people have been mentioning it I've paid more attention to it than I did before.

I used to have this problem when I would add two rolls to a post and only filled out the details after, instead of adding one, filling out the details and then adding the other and filling that out. I haven't been doing that anymore because of this issue (and because these days, I use the table thing a lot) but that issue hasn't happened to me again.

Other people claim they do that all the time though and never get an issue with it so no idea what actually caused it

Okay. I've looked at the code and can see an obvious problem. You're right Bowl - it's always been a problem.

It happens if you're quick and your network is a little sluggish. This explains why Bowl might see it when adding lots of rolls before filling them in. Users with slow networks will see this more often too. I guess tables exacerbate this because adding rolls is now much faster.
The system sends a message to the server asking for a new roll, passing the number of rolls it already has. The system returns the empty roll THEN it updates the number of rolls. The problem is underlined.

CLICK. Hey server, gimme a roll. I have 0 at the moment.

REPLY. Here you go - here's your first roll. Roll count is now 1.

I've repro'd this by hammering on the Add basic roll button.

See how it thinks it has two roll 2s, then skipped 3?

That's wizardry to me how you found that out and explained it clearly lol. So we should always wait a few seconds between roll adds?

Yeah, probably calm down a bit until I fix the code. It's a simple fix though.

Off by one error? Clicking the die icon (?view=newPost#newPost) to go into a thread with exactly 20 posts shows the backfill bar.

Once a game is linked to a Games Tavern thread, are players able to apply to games via the 'Apply to game' link below the 'Apply in Games Tavern' and "Message the GM'?

Clicking the link refreshes the game details page, but does not appear to make an application.
