Howdi folks

just curious if there is, or if there are any plans to put in a drag and drop advantage/disadvantage button onto the combat tracker or to be compatible with the CT

the Ad/DisAd buttons on the lower left are great and very useful

also the condition buttons on the upper right are very helpful

to have Ad/DisAd in among the conditions would be a nice time saver for those who prefer to drag and drop from a pop up menu

thanks in advance

You can add all the advantage/disadvantage possibilities to the effects box if you wanted to and then drag those into the needed PC/NPC when needed.

I'm not getting how adding such a toggle to the CT would be any better than clicking the ADV/DIS buttons; especially for players since they don't get anything on the CT anyway.

For example a new player casting a spell that grants disadvantage

then they are hunting for a proper format,

clicking on the button does not impose it on an NPC

indeed I see the custom option, many thanks (again) zac

If a player is casting a spell which grants disadvantage on an NPC's attacks then the player should have the DISATK effect built into their actions tab so that they can place it on the NPC.

the operative word being "should" :)

It didn't happen last night which was why I was asking

Game had to halt while we sorted it out

Not a big deal, just wanted to "streamline" the process should it happen again
