Monster Numbering

Post by Blakey »

Is there a way to have IT generate numbers for the monsters in a group starting at 1?

What I mean is if I have a group of 4 goblins with the name of "Goblin" and I drag that into an encounter I get four goblins called:

Goblin
Goblin 1
Goblin 2
Goblin 3

This doesn't make sense to me. I'd expect (and prefer):

Goblin 1
Goblin 2
Goblin 3
Goblin 4

If this isn't currently possible, can we make it so?

Thanks

I eventually want to match the numbering schemes used by MT. I've not looked at it in a long time, but I know that it is different than what I have now. There are a couple of options involved with generating them. So I don't have a problem with adding your numbering options as well. I'll add a tracker.

This would be nice. I usually wind up just deleting my original critter (the one with no number)
