Nevermind, I'm dumb.
Edit: To help anyone asking themselves the same question and not reading, like me, with the ONTURN extension, sneak is triggered only once per turn.Last edited by 4wire; April 20th, 2020 at 18:47.

If the character is hidden they would roll the attack by hitting the adv button typically. If that’s the case it will apply the sneak damage also. If they don’t have advantage on the attack from being hidden (or any other method) then it will check for a nearby ally.
Edit: Also if you encounter any situations where it should apply the damage and doesn’t, or where it does but shouldn’t let me know here and I’ll take a look and adjust if needed.

Updated to Version 1.11 which fixes some issues with the distance calculation not working properly in all cases.

Updated to Version 1.12 which cleaned up the code and fixed a potential issue with distance calculation for rakish audacity. All distance calculations are now done the same way.

Version 1.13 - Added vehicle type as a creature type and excluded any creatures of that type from granting sneak attack bonuses for being nearby.
This has come up in our Descent into Avernus campaign so the hell riders and such do not grant sneak attack bonuses.

When my players try to use this, they click advantage and roll the attack. I see the message go across that it detected a sneak attack should be applied, but then when the player rolls the damage it does not apply the sneak attack. However when I (as DM) do the exact same actions it applies the sneak attack. am I missing anything?

Love this. but in 5e isn't flanking considered when you have a party member within 5 feed of you. This is only working when i truly have someone flanking
