Combat Question: Hit Points and Wounds

[mediajunkie]

Hi, new user to the Fantasy Grounds program and I have a quick question.

While in combat with your PCs and NPCs I see where you can drag and drop the damage done to show in the wounds column. I also see that it will tally those wounds up, but is there a way to show the hit points of the PC or NPC while those wounds are accumulating?

For example:

PC 1 ---- 16hps 0 wounds so his net HPS are 16. He then gets into combat and takes 4 damage, is there a way to show his Hps as 12 now?

Hope that makes sense.

Thank you.

you can reimplement the minisheet to make this happen.

Say what? This software is supposed to be the digital metaphor for paper and pencil gaming. What GM doesn't track net HPs? I'm surprised this most basic of features was not in version 1.0. Then again, the combat tracker could use a bit of work to actually aid the GM during combat.

You hit the nail on the head;

Exactly!

Thing is.... what good GM needs it to be done digitally? :b
