Insta-Dice simply uses the non-physics based rolling mechanism already built into FG. So whatever FG uses is what Insta-Dice uses. I'm willing to guess the pseudo-rand on Windows 11 is better than Windows 10.
Insta-Dice, at launch, sets the seed once and does 4 or 5 math.random() (simply for giggles). I doubt that makes any difference, although it is a more recent addition.

I did find one conflict with an ext: The Dice smelter. When Insta dice is active the smelter throws an error.

@nephranka As an immediate work around you can disable Insta-Dice before you smelt and turn it back on after.
I have a better fix going into Forge but will take up to a day to get approved. This fix simply doesn't allow use of Insta-Dice during the post-Smelt test roll. Once the smelting test process is complete it reallows Insta-Dice rolls.
Version 1.0.10 submitted on Forge to fix this.

Gave it a run and it still throws the same error with v1.0.10.
Edit: Correction. I had manual dice set to on that caused the problem. If I set the option for manual dice to off then it works as you described. I get vdice for the smelt.Last edited by nephranka; March 16th, 2022 at 22:25.

Ok. I see the error you speak of when manual dice is set on. This is actually the same error I get without my fix but the root cause is how the dice jail sets up the test roll. The don't follow the convention that is expected.
So in the case of Insta-Dice I just check for the broken dice roll and set it to ignore it. The Manual dice roll is a SmiteWorks thing and since they are following the convention I'm thinking they will rightfully point the finger at dice jail.
If you exclude Insta-Dice from you extensions you will see the same error on manual roll.
