5E Battle Royale Extension
This extension allows your players to have similar controls for the Player than the DMs have within the combat tracker.
1) Player can control combat tracker for NPCs
2) Player can see the same details as the DM in the Combat Tracker
3) Player can see friends, foes and neutral NPCs in the Combat Tracker
4) Players can remove and add effects from the CT
I apologize for it being a bit hacky in how I put it together. I need to go back and clean up a few things if I get time so that it more intelligently overrides default behavior. For now, I've mass duplicated and replaced functionality from CoreRPG and the 5E ruleset. That means that after each update, I'll have to go back in and make updates to make it compatible again.
Usage and known issues:
The Player should still select a player character. This makes it easy to share an Encounter.
The DM still has to place the NPC from the encounters onto the map (I think)
The DM still has to click the next turn indicator
CTRL+Click targeting may not be working for player controlled NPCs currently unless they are marked as Friend.
If you are developer and you want to open it up and modify it, you can unzip the .ext file and edit away. If you make improvements, feel free to post them back here - although I would encourage you to comment the code in case I get time to clean up my version of the extension in the future.

I was a little hesitant to share it at this stage -- especially after I patched it up rather hastily after 3.3.5 dropped. Hopefully people get some good use out of it and I'll have time to keep it updated fully.

Is there a current version of this? I downloaded it and can't seem to get it to work.

It was last updated for 3.3.5. Given the significant changes with 3.3.6 I'm not surprised the extension no longer works. It has not been updated. Not sure if Doug has plans or not. I suspect he will chime in here when he has time.

It was more a reference to the name, after the success of PUBG and Fortnite, everyone wants in on the Battle Royale pie. ;-)

Yeah, it still needs to be updated. I'll need to see if I can grab some time to update it again in the near future.
