When a monster crits through the VTT, the damage dice doesn't update and you can't right click the damage dice either like you can in the old encounter manager. When you left click the To hit dice it asks if you want it as advantage or disadvantage, there should just be a simple option like that tied to the damage dice to ask if you want it as crit damage or not.
I'd prefer it to not force a crit damage, but the right click menu for both attack and damage would be nice.
While they're at it, they can fix how you can "un-crit" the double damage when you roll a crit on a character sheet. Perkin's Crit doesn't need double dice to be rolled and it's always a pain for people.
Agreed. The players at my table have the ability to generate the roll with advantage or disadvantage on their sheets but as a DM, I can't. While I do generate the damage on my own (we use the Perkin's Crit at my table anyway), it would be nice to have the option. Right now, I am running a Dryad NPC and I would rather not roll twice in the logs if I can easily ask the dice to roll the advantage and disadvantage. So not just for attacks and such but all things (saving throws, etc.).

You can, but for some reason it's an option that has to be enabled and might be turned off by default. If you click on the hamburger menu at the top right of the Maps VTT window, then click Settings, you'll see an option at the bottom of the list labeled "Roll with Advantage/Disadvantage from monster stat blocks". If you check that, clicking on any rollable d20 Test button in a monster stat block will pop up a choice of rolling it with advantage or disadvantage (or neither).
