How does the initiative tracker resolve ties?

Combatants sort from highest to lowest initiative. Equal values keep their existing order; new combatants join the end of their tie. Use Tie up and Tie down to set the order explicitly. Editing HP or conditions does not reorder tied combatants.

When does the round counter advance?

Start encounter begins round 1 at the first combatant. Next turn advances through the roster and increases the round once when it wraps from the last combatant to the first. A one-combatant encounter advances one round per Next turn. Manually setting the current turn keeps the round unchanged.

What happens if I remove the active combatant?

The next remaining combatant takes the turn. If the removed combatant was last in the order, the tracker wraps to the first and increases the round once. Removing the final remaining combatant returns the encounter to an empty, unstarted state. Undo restores the removed combatant, all its values and the previous turn and round.

Are HP changes and conditions applied automatically?

No. Enter the HP values and condition notes your table uses. Negative current HP and HP above the entered maximum remain as entered. The tracker does not remove defeated combatants, expire conditions, roll initiative or apply game rules.

Can I save, import and undo an encounter?

Changes save in local device storage when available. Export encounter JSON saves the action history and undo stack; importing validates the project and asks you to replace the encounter on screen. Undo and redo cover turn changes, edits, removals, tie moves and names. A new change after undo clears the redo branch.

How large can an encounter be?

The tracker supports up to 200 combatants and 1,000 recorded changes, including the undo history. If the history fills, existing data remains available and Undo still works. Export the encounter before using the page's Start over control to begin a new one. Names support 80 characters and condition notes support 500 characters.

Initiative Tracker

Build your own encounter roster and keep the current turn visible. Set initiative and tie order, update HP and condition notes, then advance through rounds with undo and redo. Changes save on your device, and an exported JSON project keeps the encounter and its history together.
