v1.8.3: Commands Update (Patreon)

Welcome to Improved Initiative 1.8! This update contains a number of small improvements and bugfixes. The icons and default keybindings for some of your commands have changed.

A useful new command is the Clean Encounter command. Unlike the existing Clear Encounter, Clean Encounter will leave your Player Characters and only remove NPCs. In coming updates, I'm planning to add much better support for persisting your Player Characters across multiple encounters.

Add Note is now Add Tag. I'll be repurposing the word "Note" later. The Add Tag prompt can now be applied to multiple selected combatants simultaneously.

A few other improvements come courtesy of coreyjkelly. DnDAppFiles imports will correctly handle the statblock's size, source, and type. There is a new Player View option to always display the active combatant first. Thanks Corey!

As I shared with Patrons last month, we recently welcomed a new addition to our family! With a baby at home, I'm going to step back from monthly app updates for a little while. More information on The Future of Improved Initiative.

Happy DMing!
