Hello DMs! Welcome to version 1.6 of Improved Initiative. This is a smaller than usual update this month, as I enjoyed a nice vacation.

The main new feature is Condition Reference, which works a lot like spell reference. Conditions like grappled, stunned, invisible, and others with specific rules text can be clicked to show a quick reference prompt.

Another new thing is a more explicit Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. You'll be prompted about it next time you launch the app, and you can review it any time you like from the options menu. I made an effort to make it brief and human-readable, while still hopefully GDPR compliant. You can also review the documents here.

A few users are currently being affected by this bug, which can hide your saved app data under certain circumstances. This is a bit challenging to fix, but there is a workaround in the meantime.

Have fun!

Update 1.6.1: Condition reference now works in both tags and Statblocks.

Update 1.6.2: Exhaustion added as a condition. Some bugfixes and optimizations.

Update 1.6.3: Fixed hotkeys for brand new users.

Update 1.6.4: Bugfixes and code improvements (see PR).

Sweet, I was going to request condition reference! I dont seem to be able to click on the text though, and the cursor doesnt change to indicate its clickable... I tried it in Firefox, Chrome and IE and the only thing I can click on is the X to remove the tag...

Looks like it is where the condition is mentioned in a spell or a creature stat block, rather than the tags on the tracker itself (e.g if you goto the sleep spell, the work 'unconscious' is clickable ). Would be very cool if it worked with the tags as well :)

*oh*... I read the whole description of the new feature and thought it was only talking about the tags... XD

This is a great idea, WormSlayer, thanks for suggesting it. I feel silly for not building it this way in the first place, but I'll make it work with Tags as well.

Evan you are doing great work. Thanks for all the cool updates! I wonder if it would be possible to add a timer option to the status effects. So if "fear" for example was to last 10 turns (1 min), it would tick down every round. In large battles it is sometimes hard to keep track of turn length on status effects without pen/paper. Not a criticism, just an idea! Keep up the good work!

Hi AJ, thanks very much for the suggestion! You can accomplish what you're describing today by clicking the hourglass icon when adding a tag/note to a creature.

Ah I see why I keep missing it. On my PC it's clearly there but on my tablet the menu gets cut off and I don't see the icons. I've been using Enter to input the text. I can try a better resolution, thanks again!

Is it possible to get the Exhaustion levels added as conditions as well?

Am I missing something, or is there no way to edit a timer, or view how many turns are left?

There's no way to edit or check durations right now, but I'll look into adding an indicator tooltip to show the remaining duration.

is it possible to show a spell in the player's view?
