Hi all.

I know that, in combat, if I slide any of the portraits shown of the top bar (the initiative bar), I can delay actions for that character or take a blank turn for gaining initiative just like the tabletop D&D.

I've seen that I can do the same on the bottom portraits bar (the one that is shown always, not only on combat), slide the portraits and change their order. Didn't find any reference on the manual and it doesn't look like the most left character is the one who talks when multiple characters are selected as I thought at first. Possibly missing something obvious but... what is the purpose of being able to change the order of portraits on the bottom bar?

Thanks in advance

It has been a while since I've played but I believe it is for marching order.

The far left slot is for the party leader, so put your party's face here.

The rest don't seem to matter as far as I can tell. There's a separate formation button for marching order... just a matter of convenience as to how you want to sort your party members.
