I'm currently making a homebrew race and I want to give them a trait which lets them dash as a bonus action, but I'm not sure how to go about it in the DDB interface. Can anyone help?

Thanks

So, basically a monk's "step of the wind" ability?

More like a Rogue's Cunning Action or a Goblin's Nimble Escape. It doesn't require a cost, just the use of the bonus action.

This question is 8 years old and has NO answers yet. I actually have the same question now--How can I make Dash and/or Disengage appear as Bonus actions instead of actions IN DDB?

1. Make a new feature or trait "Bonus Action Stuff"
2. Fill in the feature's or trait's description and snippet text.
3. Make a new Action
4. Give it the name "Bonus Action Stuff"
5. Fill in the action description and snippet text. (leave the action description blank to just use the same description from the feature/trait)
6. And here's the super secret important part no one mentioned in the last 8 years this thread has been alive: Set the ACTIVATION TYPE to Bonus Action.

Also, it's not a bad idea to make a copy of official subclasses or species or feats to see how the official programmers set up different things. It gives great clues on how to do different things. Any official subclass, species, or feat with a Bonus Action would show you how that particular Bonus Action was set up. Just pay attention to the details.
