[QUOTE="Traveon Wyvernspur, post: 4466560, member: 73201"] I think I may have confused you a bit. The left initiative box has enough room for 25 different combantants (which I'm sure is more than enough). The actual sheets one that can be auto-filled from my table and the other which doesn't have auto-filling in case you want to make your own monsters and fill out their stats. There is enough room on each sheet (tab) for 6 PCs and their stats and 9 different monsters/creatures w/ their stats. The small table on the top left for initiative is to keep track of the order of players/creatures. The 1-50 are the rounds dropdown boxes, I did this so it's easier to keep track of what round you are in for each character or creature(s). I do like your idea of check boxes and I'll see what I can do for those and auto-populating for the monsters and PCs seems a bit redundant to me, because these are meant to be a "per encounter" combat sheet at it is, the current encounter as you've built it from auto-populating the monsters by their dropdowns. What I do is just roll for the creatures and then add their initiative modifiers, place them up in the initiative table, then have the players roll w/ their initiative modifiers and place them in the table as well. Then I will right click after highlighting the whole initiative area and have it "auto-sort" from Highest to Lowest and there is your order, with the initiative order and the names of the encounter combatants. I'll look into autopopulating this area as well per the initiative rolls, but not sure how to do that because as it is I only have initiative modifiers and not the true total initiative scores until the rolls are in for creatures and PCs, make sense? That is why I did it the way it is, because it is real time rolls and not autorolls for the characters and creatures. [/QUOTE]
