The new drawing tools are live and ready to use, this massive update really brings a lot of useful kit to the table:
- Grids and snapping mean you can keep tokens neat and tidy
- Measurement tools make it easy to plan out moves
- New overlay markers make it easy to highlight places on the map or discuss tactics
- A variety of shape tools to better fit those non-rectangular rooms!
- Map Layer markers so the GM can mark changes in the environment
This is a huge overhaul, so be sure to give me a shout if you encounter any problems, or things that don't make a lot of sense.
I've done some house keeping on the Trello Board so you can check out the plan going forward, for now I'm working on some wrapping up of the new tools as well as tracking down some bugs in the initiative system, but within a month I hope to be kicking off the Dice Tray systems.
