1.1 + how to make a health bar


Here's the first update. It includes several changes based on feedback from the GLOG discord.

  • All stat-bonus calculation points to one place, so you don't have to go poking around in every nook and cranny to modify it. I've updated the tutorial if you want to do that.
  • The d20 roller now has a log of previous rolls, and I made the field editable so you can select it to copy/paste it, or delete it all if it's getting too long and you want to clear it.
  • Also, when you use it to roll a stat with a negative modifier, it won't tell you something silly like 9(10+-1). Instead it'll just say 9(10-1).
  • There's a big two-sided page for miscellaneous  notes now. Each side contains three text-field columns and one list column.
  • To make room for the notes button, I got rid of the caster checkbox. If you're not a caster, just don't click the spells button. (Or do, I'm not your boss.)

Finally, someone wanted the health tracker to use a bar like the six stats do. I went ahead and tried it to see what that might look like:

I have to admit, it does look very attractive, and it's easier to click and drag than spam-click if you need to change it by a lot. It reminds me of a video game health bar. However, I'm personally fond of the name being directly under the portrait, and I think for it to be a health bar it really wants more horizontal space than the area on the right can give it. If you prefer this layout, though, it's very easy to rearrange the elements so they look like this screenshot. To change it to a health bar, double-click the health ticker to see its properties, then select "Bar" instead of "Compact".
