I've been using the tDice script for a looong time now, and just now I have realized that it's rare that 1 is rolled. If you roll a series of die with 2 sides, it will most likely get 2, like this sequence I have rolled.

Throwing 20 Dices with 2 Sides each:
1. Dice: 2
2. Dice: 2
3. Dice: 2
4. Dice: 2
5. Dice: 2
6. Dice: 2
7. Dice: 2
8. Dice: 2
9. Dice: 2
10. Dice: 2
11. Dice: 2
12. Dice: 2
13. Dice: 2
14. Dice: 2
15. Dice: 2
16. Dice: 2
17. Dice: 2
18. Dice: 2
19. Dice: 1
20. Dice: 2

Now if you roll let's say, 1-4, you'll get something like this. (I JUST ROLLED THIS)

Throwing 20 Dices with 4 Sides each:
1. Dice: 4
2. Dice: 4
3. Dice: 3
4. Dice: 3
5. Dice: 4
6. Dice: 4
7. Dice: 4
8. Dice: 2
9. Dice: 4
10. Dice: 3
11. Dice: 3
12. Dice: 1
13. Dice: 2
14. Dice: 3
15. Dice: 4
16. Dice: 4
17. Dice: 2
18. Dice: 1
19. Dice: 3
20. Dice: 2

Only two 1s.

No, this is not just chance, I've done 10 die with 2 sides over 50 times, none of them had a majority of 1's, only 2's.

Is there any way to fix this script at all?

Import the following attachment.

I changed

Javascript code:

---

Result = Math.round((Math.random()*Sides)+1);

---

The round() method rounds a number to the nearest integer.

to

Javascript code:

---

Result = Math.floor((Math.random()*Sides)+1);

---

The floor() method returns the value of a number rounded DOWNWARDS to the nearest integer.

Now with your 2 tests it returns each more randomly.
