Fudge, Timezones are Hard
or Balmung RP Discord Bot version 0.9.5
No really, they’re a pain in the tail.
The discord bot should now properly give a full 24 hours of events reguardless of your timezone and respecting daylights savings time borders for anywhere in Microsoft’s TimeZoneInfo database.
In addition the ‘daily’ notifications (set by !adddaily and !removedaily) will now broadcast at midnight local time to a channel instead of midnight at US Central.  This will include events happening at 'midnight’ of the next day just to make sure you don’t miss anything.
In other news, !roll feature has been updated to support 'Fudge’ dice used in the Fate based systems (like Fate-14).
Use !roll #f to roll # number of fudge dice.Â
Ex:Â
[12:18 PM] erroch: !roll 4fÂ
[12:18 PM] BalmungRPBot: @erroch, rolling 4f: Value: 1 Dice: Â [-1] [1] [0] [1]

PS:Â Yeah, the fudge dice were in for the last update, but I've improved them enough to mention this time. 1's happen with the same frequency as -1's now. Tested over near 20 million iterations with a deviation of about 1.5% between the +1, -1, and 0.
