I've been trying to wrap my head around the right command to change group initiative to tie-breaker and can't seem to figure it out. Can anyone help me with the right command?

Really wish the help command would give us an example of how to do this for tie-breaker. Maybe it does, but can't find it.

Sorry about that!  The help is a bit arcane, I've been meaning to rewrite it.  

Assuming you're using an attribute named initiative_bonus, you could do this:
!group-init --add-group --bare initiative_bonus --tie-breaker initiative_bonus
You might want to remove the earlier stat groups so this one gets used:
!group-init --del-group 1

Help arcana is deprecated!

How do the Initiatives sort-order if you do not have a --tie-breaker set? Alphabetical, alpha by selected ID, or by z-order, or by the order selected?

It's always Numeric from GroupInitiative's point of view.  I don't know about the built in sort.

Got ya, thanks. Yes I use Groupinitiative (of course I do), I combine it with TurnMarker1 if I'm remembering the name right.

Also I recently added a Stylish code based on yours, I kept it single-column and tweaked the reduced line-height and header size to my liking. Compacted the Turn Tracker area by a lot.
