HLO Improvements Wishlist (Character mgmt, Inventory, Dice)

[Shadowfoot]

I would like to hide skill feats when looking at general feats, to aid my selection.

Expanding on this, it would be nice to be able to exclude traits on many of the lists. For example, a barbarian might want to avoid considering feats that require concentration, or a stealthy spellcaster might want to find the silent spells.

So I thought there was a section for the in HLO, but I don't see it...

Character Description, Things like the following:

Birthplace
Age
Height
Weight
Apperance

Personality section to include the following:

Attitude
Beliefs
Likes
Dislikes
Catchphrases

Stuff you would find on Paizo Character Sheet Pack.

Edit: Just took a closer look, Some of that info is in Starfinder but not in Pathfinder.

Hey there,

So, I logged into HeroLab Online to get a screenshot to show you that Age, Height, Weight, at least, was on the Profile page. However, it seems to have been removed, intentionally or not. This being said, you can always make a Journal entry in the Journal --> General area all the way at the bottom left. You can put any info in there that you want. I create a synopsis of our adventures weekly that I then read back as a reminder for everyone, to save the GM work. This is also the area where you would enter any money or XP (if you don't simply level when told to) gained, in one of the entries.

You can always put your character info into one Journal entry and label it as such. I certainly put my background in here. It is easy to access with the character & if you use the Campaign Theatre the GM can see this info easily as well, including any changes made or added.

Just checked, that is odd that those things are missing from the profile section

Something strange for us to miss. I'll add this to our list of suggested improvements.

Update: Another user already reported this, and it's been fixed and will go out in the next update.

This is a minor thing, but for organized play (Pathfinder Society, Starfinder Society), it would be great to display the characters character number and faction in the Character>Profile section of the Play tab.

Hi there. A couple of ideas from me. Would be great to allow us to retire cast members who are linked to retired scripts without having to unlink them all.

Also, the Cast Members names appearing on the initiative tracker is annoying AF. Even if I rename the character they can see the monster category I've used if from the bestiary. Also on initiative, when multiple creatures are present, the numbering system is handy, but again, my PCs can see this. Would be much better if the #number ONLY appeared to me as a GM.

Finally, afflictions / conditions, would be amazing if you could set like a 'default conditions' to add to each monster? These would include stunned / prone / grabbed etc. Having to add every single time for each monster in a battle is frustrating.

Overall though, just finished book 1 of Extinction Curse and my guys are loving the programme. Keep up the great work! Cheers.

An indicator of some kind on the combat tracker for conditions? Such as stunned, blinded, bleeding and so on. If it is just the word spelled out when the condition is applied. There seems to be plenty of space. I'm no coder so no idea how difficult that would be.

Does anyone know if there is a timeline for the addition of an inventory management feature to HLO? It is also called "party loot management" in the Campaign Theater Primer document.
This would be an incredibly useful feature, even if we don't yet have shared content between party members.
