Project: D&D Action Tracker
If you pay D&D regularly, you know that game has an action economy that limits how many things you can do per turn. In the earliest levels this is pretty simple, since your character may only have one attack action or one spell to cast. But as you level up it can get really tricky to keep track of all the things your character can do, how many per turn they can pull off, and the order in which you want to do them on your next turn. One of my characters is a monk with multiple actions per turn (you usually get only 1) and bonus actions that can increase that even more.
I like to have my next actions planned and ready before my turn so that I don't slow down the whole table by digging through my lists and notes as I try to decide what to do. To make this easier, I built a small web app with Javascript that lets me add all of my available attacks and bonus actions, set how many actions and bonuses I have per turn, and then easily select actions to use. This has been especially useful with a monk character where, thanks to ki points and abilities, I can have at least two regular attacks + a bonus attack per turn.
The app uses cookies for data storage, so nothing at all is uploaded to or saved on the server. This means I don't have to maintain a database, but it also means there is no need for a login in order for multiple people to use it. Each browser has its own cookies, and thus its own data. In the next update I'll be adding a feature to export and import your data too.
It's very much in beta, but I have been using it regularly and refining it little by little with each game. Check it out here, and if you try using it in a game it would be great to hear what worked and what didn't.
