Content

Hello DMs,

Improved Initiative 3.2 is now available. Here are the highlights:

Mythic Actions are now supported, including when you import D&D Beyond Statblocks such as Mythic dragons in Fizban's Treasury of Dragons.

Bonus Actions can now be placed in their own section. This is not a feature of published statblocks, but you can use it for your homebrew.

Bonus OGL Content! Thanks to the Open5e API, Improved Initiative now includes statblocks from the Creature Codex and Tome of Beasts, two third-party books that have released their content under the Open Gaming License. If you would rather not see the extra content, you can disable this (as well as basic rules content) on the Options pane on the Settings page.

Open5e is also supported on Patreon- if you love what they are providing, please join me in pledging!

My last update for Improved Initiative mentioned that the app is now complete. That's still true; but I might still make an occasional bonus update like this one.

Longwave Localization

In other news, Longwave now has localization support and is available in French, German, and Brazilian Portuguese. If you'd like to contribute your own translations, you can contribute here.

Unbelievable! The gift that keeps giving! Many thanks for this incredible update. The OGL content in particular is an incredible addition.

Evan, With this newest update (SUPER AWESOME, BTW), I am having errors with my content. When I select a character I've previously entered, the screen goes entirely blank. I've refreshed, imported/exported data, and still have issues. Thoughts?

I can't remove the characters from the main combatant's screen. I've even tried deleting them from the library manager, they still exist and cannot edit.

Even though the screen goes blank, you can still delete them from the initiative tracker, and then you can just re add them and they work just fine

After you delete them from the tracker (one by one), you just go back to the last page and do it again

Ive tried, Jared! When I select them as a line item, the screen is totally blank. I can't even see the menu options on the left. Normally, a character line item brings them up on the right in selected combatant, then on the left i could hit X to delete them. I cannot with these 5 characters I've uploaded.

I'd be happy to discord with someone to share my screen if needed..

I got it to work. I had to backup my data to JSON, Delete my local data, then re-import it.

Will just say real quickly, love this new update. Not only did you add bonus actions and mythic actions, you also added reactions, fully completing a monster stat block

You are amazing! I can't thank you enough for a tool that makes GM'ing a campaign so easy. FYI, I'd like to partner with you and start importing some SW5E stuff... I input everything manually thus far, but it's awesome for it to work for my 5th edition campaigns of both Star Wars and D&D. YOU ROCK!

Sure thing! Sorry you had to do a workaround in the meantime, but this issue should be fixed now for other users.

I seem to be having issues with my settings not being saved when it comes to command buttons and the like. This has only started after the update to 3.0. Is there anything that is known to cause this?

I'll take a look and see if anything is obviously broken. Feel free to open an issue on the GitHub repo with detailed repro steps

I haven't been able to reproduce this issue, but I'm pushing a minor bugfix for some account sync problems. Let me know if you keep seeing the problem. Thanks!

Matt
>>71892656

Thank you! I haven't been back to work on anything since I posted that question. I'll play around with it over the holiday and give feedback!

>>71892656

Was hoping to get an update on this. Still seeing the issues and at least one other person on reddit has as well. It's becoming a drag

No update here since I was never able to reproduce it. Feel free to send screenshots and any errors you see in the F12 developer tools, you can email to improvedinitiativedev@gmail.com
