dndR Version 3.1.0

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• New function behavior: npc_creator now also returns first and last names for NPCs (in addition to race/species and a job)
• Unit test update for ggplot2 version 4.0.0

dndR Version 3.0.0

The following changes were made from the preceding version:

• Updates for 2024 version of fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons:
  • With the 2024 release of an updated fifth edition, many functions needed to be updated so users could specify which version they were using. In all cases this was added as a ver argument
  • Note that the creature and spell query functions (spell_text, spell_list, creature_text, and creature_list) use 2014 information and will return a warning if 2024 is specified as the desired version
  • Similarly, encounter balancing rules have changed so xp_cost will likewise return a warning if the ver = "2024"
  • All other functions with a ver argument will behave as appropriate for the specified version
• New function behavior: encounter_creator now supports a try argument that defines how many attempts are made to maximize encounter XP while remaining beneath the allowable XP threshold
• New function behavior: encounter_creator now supports a max_creatures argument that allows users to specify the maximum number of creatures they want to include in a given encounter (regardless of available XP)
• Namespaced all function examples–should allow users to run example code without loading dndR explicitly with library (though they will still need to have installed it at least once)
• Removed all non-ASCII characters from spell and creature information data tables. Should not affect user experience but silences a CRAN check note in Linux environments
• Adding unit tests to most functions in the package. Some small changes have resulted (e.g., new warnings for edge cases, more informative messages, etc.) but this shouldn’t change function behavior where they are currently in use. Hopefully future debugging will be made easier though!

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
