It's a general question too, but I ask regarding a gloom stalker I am playing with current + 6 stealth. I see that I will gain the hide in plain side feature in a few level's time which gives + 10 to stealth. Does that + 10 get added to whatever my roll is after my + 6 is included, or do I only get to use one or other bonus? (Presumably my stealth will also have gone up by the time Hide In Plain sight is available too.)
Bonuses stack unless they come from two game rules with the same name. You can't stack a spell, class feature, magic item, racial trait, monster trait, feat, etc. with itself.

Hide in plain sight will stack with your other bonuses (so it will be around +17), but note that the +10 has special conditions to apply.
Noted, and thanks x
