[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 8185990, member: 63"] My experience with 5e online is that you hardly need the computer to handle stats and rules and stuff. I generally just assume the players will track their stats, and each monster token has little spots where you can type in numbers. They don't really say what the numbers are, except one circle is red, one is green, and one is black (I think). So I'd just type in HP damage that each monster took. I didn't bother to actually put full monster stats in. Heck, while PF and PF2 have a lot more numbers and moving parts, that's all under the hood. Above the hood, really all the PCs interact with is the monster's HP. I imagine you could just have the stats open in one file, and then alt-tab between those stats when you need to roll something, and the VTT interface when you need to record HP damage or roll dice. I don't even know if you're supposed to be able to, like, click a monster, then click a target, and have the computer handle the monster attacking the target. [/QUOTE]
