Community Forums: Status Effect Icons on Turn Tracker

1389465105

Hi, I would like to have the option for the Status Effect Icons mirrored on the turn tracker. This would mirror our practice during P&P games where we use a whiteboard behind the GM to track turns and effects. One direct play benefit is a player can see where they are in turn order relative to the next time an effect is applied or saved for. Thanks!

If I understand your suggestion, you can achieve a similar effect by having a token for each status effect, and adding that token to the turn order at the position it needs to be.

It would not be associated with the character if I understand how that would work. My interest is something like Groo <Effect> <Effect> Goblin 1 <Effect> etc.. Where I think if I used a token it would look like Groo <Effect> <Effect> Goblin 1 <Effect> ?

True, but they'd have the same initiative number so it wouldn't matter

That would not be a very satisfying way to present the material and could result in a very long list if you have a lot of mobs and a lot of effects. I will probably have to do something like that in the short term although I am going to try to find an out of game way to replicate our paper and pencil experience in this regard.

This would be cool.
