As a direct result of discussion in The QOL Suggestion thread, I bring you a poll!

 

Winning options are not promised, but it doesn't hurt to see where preferences lie among the beta testers regardless. :)  Bring on the feedback!

Tapping of any type would be fine.  The best option I'd choose would be the one not listed "tap dice or tap button". I chose swipe dice or tap button as a close alternative to that choice.

Hey there

 

Tapping a button or the dice is preferred. Swiping is one of my least favourite aspects of Touch devices.

 

Thanks

Tap the dice is terrifying to me. I don't want to accidentally roll the dice, a button in a specific location would be fine.

I saw a UI for this come up when facing a crab (that requires a 2nd roll of the same dice to succeed) -- there was a roll button and everything.

The Reroll button on the crab is one of my least favorite things. I would much prefer to lose that button and just swipe the dice again. I find that more intuitive and I always try to swipe the dice in frustration when I encounter him.

 

Even though I am a proponent of cards having both drag and button controls, I am a supporter of swipe only for dice rolling.

So swipe and button would work for you, Jeftidastl.

I would rather have a dedicated ROLL button that I can press to roll the dice.

 

Swiping is OK with me also, but I think if the ROLL button existed, I would rarely swipe to roll the dice.

 

I think tapping the dice is going to be problematic.  I suspect I'd end up rolling accidentally by clicking in the wrong place (e.g. trying to play a blessing, and instead it rolls the dice)

So swipe and button would work for you, Jeftidastl.

I would be hopeful an option to turn off the button should it be included would exist. I prefer a simpler, more intuitive interface for such a basic task as rolling dice. The UI is busy enough and cards need buttons for all their play options. Dice have one function: roll.
