Support D&D Beyond Encounter Tracker in Foundry VTT #554

Currently, if connected to Roll20, starting an encounter in the DDB Encounter Builder launches the combat and assigns tokens to each monster / player. Additionally, it launches the initiative tracker in sync between DDB and Roll20.

Please implement this or a similar feature for Foundry VTT.

Descoping this because the Encounter builder in DDB makes sense for Roll20 as it's better, but with Foundry, you have all the modules making its combat tracker the far superior option. Also, on Foundry, unless R20, we can't have a combatant unless it's associated with a token, so the encounter could be incomplete if a token with the same name doesn't exist. The complexity is too high for such little gain.

I completely agree with this decision.
