Turn Order "Count" Settings

I dislike that I can't remove or change the "Count" setting on the turn order. As is, it serves little function. I can't set it to track visible enemies, track tokens with a specific tag, or the number of turns that have passed. If it's going to be there, I'd like to be able to make it useful some how.

Agree, it's pretty useless. All it does is tell you how many tokens are in the turn order. It wasn't there in the last iteration of the tracker.

+1, this "feature" seems pointless to me, and can divulge information the players don't know, like the reserve force hiding around the corner, or the hidden enemy sneaking around to their rear to backstab. Showing a count to the DM alone is useful. Showing it to the players is outright harmful.

They did change this in an update. For the players, the counter only shows the number of tokens that have rolled initiative that are on the object layer; only the GM's tracker includes ones that are on the GM layer.

The count actually shows the count for tokens on the Lighting and Token layers. Not sure if that matters to most people, but I thought it was a strange setting.

That is odd. Maybe an oversight? I've never rolled initiative for a lantern or door :D Essen said: The count actually shows the count for tokens on the Lighting and Token layers. Not sure if that matters to most people, but I thought it was a strange setting.
