[Request] Don't reorder tokens until combat start #104

Open MelvinMcSnatch opened 3 years ago

So awesome Combat Carousel got updated. Thank you.

There's only one thing that prevents me from using it: Players rush to roll initiative at the same time and their tokens keep moving! I would just prefer they don't order themselves until combat starts.

What do you mean by their "tokens keep moving"?

MelvinMcSnatch commented 3 years ago

They reorder themselves on the carousel as players roll their initiatives: Players are put in combat ready state and carousel appears on screen carousel1 As players (and npcs) click the icon to roll initiative (or use the npc all npcs), the portraits begin reorganizing themselves in initiative order (before round 1 -- "begin combat"), making their roll initiative icon a moving target that is constantly shifting as each player rolls initiative. carousel2 So if your token was the middle one there and the guy on the right clicked first, you wouldn't be clicking your icon anymore. carousel3

I am full of typos right now.

I see. I was thinking "isn't the default tracker the same though" but I do understand when players might be trying to click their roll icon it could be frustrating.
