Hey gang, i love avrae and now that i can use it on my server as well as video and screen sharing, its awesome.

but i was wondering, not all my players have beyond or use beyond, thus i have to add them manually to avrae initiatives. but the problem is, avrae requires a bonus and always rolls initiatives himself. we preffer to roll the dice ourselves. so is there a way i am not aware of to do that ? have avrae not roll automatically initiatives or just add people names without having avrae roll initiatives for them.

i would like a function like this...

!init add name_of_character inittotal

so that avrae adds character at that initiative directly.
i am aware of the move function, but it seem counter intuitive to add people, roll their inititiaves and then move them around.
is there a way i can do this or is this something thats not part of avrae ?

up to this point, its the only thing i have found that i dislike. we lal love to have the database directly on discord.

You can actually do this with the -p modifier:

• For a generic initiative entry, use !init add <initiative_result> <name> -p
• To add a specific monsters, use !init madd <monster_name> -p <initiative_result>
• To have a PC join at a specific initiative, use !init join -p <initiative_result> (assuming you've got an assigned character)

These will each add the option directly to the initiative track at the result you specified.

Thanks, that helps a lot.

No worries, Avrae can be a beast to comprehend. Glad to help
