Jer's reference notes on D&D 5e combat

Surprise

• The DM determines who might be surprised for the first round of combat
• If neither side tries to be stealthy, they automatically notice each other.
• Notice check: DM compares the Dexterity (Stealth) checks of anyone hiding with the passive Wisdom (Perception) score of each creature on the opposing side.
• Any character or monster that doesn't notice a threat is surprised at the start of the encounter.
• If you're surprised, you can't move or take an action on your first turn of the combat, and you can't take a reaction until that turn ends.
• A member of a group can be surprised even if the other members aren't.

 * EDIT FLOW:  wp_insert_post action to autosave "draft" editorial comments in post meta field 
 * 
 * Currently (2016-10-06) Edit Flow has no handling of unsubmitted editorial comments in the textarea
 * when the post is saved, so saving your post deletes your comment unless you submitted it, which is awful. 
 * 
 * This function hooks into wp_insert_post where the value of the textarea is present (but ignored by default) 
 * and if found, saves the text (and ID of parent comment if it was a specific reply) to a postmeta field
 * keyed on the user who saves the post.

/* 
 * Simple function to intentionally crash HHVM and trigger our PHP-FPM fallback
 * 
 * For whatever reason having two "default:"" clauses in a switch statement crashes HHVM but not PHP-FPM
 * In HHVM error logs it causes: Fatal error: Switch statements may only contain one default: clause in /var/www/sites/monittest/index.php on line XX
 * 
 * This can be used to intentionally trigger a fallback from HHVM to PHP-FPM in our system, which normally happens 
 * to avoid scripts with rare HHVM bugs from crashing completely to WSOD, and to keep the server mostly working 
 * if HHVM failed completely, which has happened a couple of times.

 * Filter Caption shortcode attributes to enable the [shortcode] shortcode inside caption text
 * 
 * WP doesn't run do_shortcode on the 'caption' text value parsed out of [caption], which means

 * 
 * We want [shortcode] to work but not necessarily any other shortcodes, so we will run do_shortcode()

 * so beware any captions that for some reason also have a bad shortcode that will break formatting.
