Greetings friends and supporters! I'm really excited to share another Foundry Virtual Tabletop beta release 0.2.6. This update incorporates some major improvements for the Combat Trackerand Ruler systems to add synchronization, waypointing, and expanded turn tracking functionality to Foundry VTT.
This update is available immediately for Council tier supporters and will be made available on Tuesday, April 17 for beta tier supporters!
I'm really excited about the continued progress for this software and motivated by the support and encouragement of the community. Thank you all for appreciating my work, providing thoughtful feedback, and encouraging me to do even more.

Important Notes
NOTE: There is a current critical issue with 0.2.6 related to Scene updates which are not correctly applied. I'll be addressing this with an updated version ASAP.
There are two important notes to be aware of when applying this update:
1. There is an issue in 0.2.5 (the previous version) which requires you to have an actively running World in order to update the software. This is corrected in 0.2.6, but you will need to load a World and click "Update Software" from within the world to apply this update.
2. There is an issue in the auto-updater which fails to automatically restart the software once the update is applied. After the update process completes, you will need to manually close and restart FVTT in order to launch the new version. This is corrected for the next version.
Download Instructions
There are two ways to download the new version.
1. Use the Auto-Updater (Preferred)
The new preferred update option is to use the auto-updater functionality built into the FVTT application. To use the Auto-Updater, click the "Update Softare" button on the Settings panel (question mark icon) of the sidebar.
On the update page, use the following key to access the update: 026-9cx367kjzx4l
