Me and my friends recently started playing DnD on discord. And I became kind of our tech-support (not DM) to make sure our systems work in the best way possible. And while I was setting up our server i came across a code to roll all initiative at once. Which would make it a lot easier for us to play quicker as most of us are new to DnD. It looks like this:
And it works great! It rolls initiative instnatly and tells us which players turn it is (in our actual code we have our players names in place of Player#) The only problem is that it always @'s me. It doesnt seem to grasp that the name of the player is the same as a character name from DnD Beyond (that has already joind the server) and always seem to think its my characters turn wepon choices and all(the exeption is monsters that have joind afterwards, that the DM seem to have control over).
Is Avrae made by DDB or is it third-party? If the latter, the DDB forums probably can't help you.

Leaving OGL 1.0(a) untouched and making SRD 5.1 CC-BY-4.0 is a great first step. The next is a promise to do the same for future editions. Here's a discussion thread on that.
Avrae is owned and maintained by D&D Beyond. Your best bet would be to try either the avrae support channel on our discord server or the avrae dev server

What have I done wrong? And how do I fix this?
so youll want to have your actual players link their sheets by doing !beyond url the url being sheet url
have them join init by doing !i join
the bot is thinking its you, because your the one adding the characters to initiative, and the bot doesnt have access to the sheet unless its connected directly via by doing the url thing.

Hey guys,

DDB is great, but it could be better. Here are some things I think could improve DDB
Avrae seems to be made by DDB itself. But I may be wrong. Its sort of a middle man between DDB and Discord
Avrae is owned and maintained by D&D Beyond. Your best bet would be to try either the avrae support channel on our discord server or the avrae dev server
