Truly Random Release Notes

Version 3.0.0

Released: 23-Apr-2010

  • Adding a new feature: Custom Dice Sets

    Create as many dice sets as you want. Each dice set can have any number of dice and each die can have any number of faces. Each face contains the text that you enter.

    Invent your own games!

  • Updated the help information to account for the new Custom Dice Sets feature and added an "Email the Developer" button to make it easier to contact me with questions or concerns.

Version 2.1.0

Released: 14-Dec-2009

  • Corrected an issue with the RPG Char screen. Once the numbers are generated, if the user were to open the keyboard or change the orientation, subsequently selecting a few numbers and pressing the roll selected button would cause all non-selected numbers to go to zero.
  • Corrected an issue with the Lottery Edit screen - where you set up the type of lottery ticket to be generated. If you choose Add and then change the screen orientation, the edit screen would force close. The program would recover and continue just fine, but still shouldn't happen. So now that's fixed.
  • Changed the menus so that Add/Update/Delete menus didn't appear on the RPG Char screen as they do not apply there. Although they were disabled, their presence wasn't necessary and might lead to confusion giving the impression that some aspect of that screen could be saved.
  • Made some small changes to help the application look better with various screen sizes.
    1. RPG Char screen - The field of generated numbers is now in a scroll view so on smaller screens you can scroll through the list.
    2. Lottery Edit screen - The field of controls that lets you define the type of lottery ticket you want to generate is now properly placed in a scroll view so smaller screens can scroll through easier. Also, the alternative side-by-side view for the landscape orientation has been scrapped. It looked horrible on small screens and some of the buttons were partially hidden.

Version 2.0.0

Released: 25-Sep-2009

  • Based on a user request, I am adding the ability to do multiplication and other actions with the dice.

    In fact, I'm adding a new tab page (RPG+ with cool skull graphic) which will allow you to enter dice equations using RPG Dice Notation, or at least a subset of it.

    Basically, you will be able to enter equations such as (4d6 +3)*6, which will evaluate as follows:

    1. 4 d6 dice rolls are summed
    2. 3 is added to the result
    3. the quantity is then multiplied by 6

    See the main game page for more discussions on the capabilities and limitations, and then enjoy.

  • Cleaning up the UI a bit. Trying to make some minor changes (probably not noticeable) to allow the application to be viewed on screens of varying dimensions.

Version 1.1.0

Released: 17-Sep-2009

  • Corrected a drawing problem with the help text when this is displayed on Android 1.5.
  • Removed the "Check For Updates" feature. Since the Google Market has gotten better about showing which applications have updates available, this is no longer necessary.
  • Removing the Check For Updates feature has also allowed me to remove the Internet Permissions, since the application no longer needs to have access to the internet.
