Adding Directly to Stage/Combat

[mototom]

Scene scripts work in most situations but is there a way to add creatures directly to a combat in the tactical console? There seem to be a lot of use cases for adding things that aren't characters or script creatures. Oozes that split, creatures that are summoned, etc. all seem like unplanned additions to a combat.

Is there a way to add monsters directly to the tactical console/stage?

I know that if you go into Cast Members during combat you can select Add to Stage. I'm not sure about importing from the Vault.

Thanks. I’ll check that out.

The vault is still pretty key for the various summoned creatures the party might decide to use.

Yeah, doing some more searching it looks like you need to import to the Cast Members first, then add to the Stage from there. Kind of clumsy in play, but you can prepare spare Oozes or the party's favorite summons in advance.
