Suggestion: Add button to skip to PC turn

[Error40432]

I recently made it to Act 3 and good god some of these fights just have too many NPCs in them. I don't even just mean enemies its allied NPCs as well. This has always been a pain point for tabletop D&D so its no surprise its present here but Larian really needs to add like a fast forward button or "skip to next PC turn" button. I don't mean just skip everyone's actions, just make the NPC actions resolve and jump to the next player character turn. I don't want to watch 12 NPCs all make one attack, run into a corner, and then stand there for 5 seconds while the game processes what just happened. It really ruins the flow of the game and makes combat feel like a massive slog.

If the devs could resolve the NPC turns more quickly they would already have done that so what good is a 'skip' button? Also, it is nice to be able to see what horrible things happen to your party during the NPC turns. I would hate to be slowed by an NPC and never see it happen and only notice it when I try to take an action.

or at least like a fastforward option.

Like if I'm having my rogue dash a mile, I shouldn't have to watch the whole journey in real time.

Not a terrible idea. I just alt tab to a browser window in those big fights though.

Ok this is a very good idea.
