IniTUItive Tracker is a simple RPG turn-order tracker for tabletop role-playing games. It allows you to track players and monsters in combat, and easily manage their initiative order with only a terminal interface. IniTUItive Tracker is designed with Pathfinder 2nd Edition in mind.
To install IniTUItive Tracker, simply clone the GitHub repository. You can run the application by executing go run main.go
or by running run.sh
. This means you must have go
installed to use this application.
IniTUItive Tracker is meant to be easy to use and understand. Each command has an assigned key as a shortcut, and the commands are listed in each panel. From the Commands panel, you can see all the available commands and their keys:
Commands:
n: Add a new combatant
l: Navigate to the Initiative List panel
q: Quit
From the Initiative List panel, you can see all the combatants in the current initiative order, and you can edit or delete a combatant by selecting their entry and pressing Enter. You can also see the available commands:
Commands:
r: Return to the Commands panel
When adding or editing a character, you can enter their name, initiative bonus, and any other relevant information. The Initiative and HP fields accept integers only. The Team field is optional and can be used to group combatants together. The four Teams are Player (blue), Enemy (red), Ally (green), and Neutral (yellow), and the selected Team will cause that character's name to render in the terminal with that color. In Pathfinder 2e, in the case of a tie, Enemies attack first, so the program will automatically sort the initiative order to reflect this. Should two characters have the same initiative, you may set their order manually by entering a number in the Priority field. The higher the number, the earlier the character will act in the case of a tie. The buttons following the input fields are Save and Clear, respectively. Save will save the character to the initiative order, and Clear will clear the input fields for re-entry.
When selecting a character for editing, a new button will appear: Delete. This button will remove the selected character from the initiative order.
