[4e] Combat Tracker Utility

[Prizdar]

You the man. I'll let you know how it goes. With 2 little ones it will take some time!

First I'd like to thank Mortaneus for a really awsome app. I've scoured the net for different combat managers and tried out several, but this one really shines, and now I use it in every 4e session I run.

Here are a few things that I've missed while using the app:
Are you are planning to add stealth checks to the app?
Some sort of logging would be nice if you need to backtrack or roll back something.

Also, how will the app be able to handle the new power format that will be implemented in Monster Manual 3 if you import creatures from Adventure Tools?

The developer stopped working on this a little while back. I am worried about the new format myself.......

I created a beginner's tutorial for using the combat tracker with a screencast and screenshots.

Does not load for me.

I just found this program, and I really like it. I do have a question, though: Does the program keep track of the number of surges a character has and how many remain when surges are used or expended?

Not out-of-the-box.

I suppose you could add each surge as a daily power, but it's a hack and I suspect it'd feel that way.

Aww, that's too bad. That's the only major lack I've found so far with this program, but it's a big lack.

I saw that you have lots of monsters actually loaded in statblock library. How to do it? I know that loading files directly from Monster Builder is possible, but there's any way to get official monsters, from Monster Manuals for example?

All of the official monsters from the two Monster Manuals (among other sources) are in the DDI Monster Builder. Just right click on the monster's entry name, and select the option 'Copy as Rich Text'. Over in the Combat Tracker Utility's Statblock Library, click on the paste button and the monster's stats will appear in the list. From there, you can add them to the battle list, or make editing changes by clicking on the 'Change' button on the top bar.

Hope that helps.
