Hey Everyone!
This update features our all-new grid overlay system. You can also customize this grid with a number of unique customizations options including color, opacity, and glow. We also introduced Z snapping, which will allow props to be easily placed on top of one another. A few minor and major bugs were addressed, and we made some UI changes to accommodate the new features.
Grid Overlay:
You can now apply a grid overlay to your map. This will allow you to easily visualize the map for movement, combat, or other things that require measurement. We also added the option to change the grid color, its opacity, and its glow.
Top-down Camera:
We re-added the top-down camera, which will allow the user to lock their camera at a 90-degree angle to the floor. This will allow you to view your 3d map in 2d and use it more as a battle map like you would see at a classic tabletop session.
Z Snapping:
You now have the ability to toggle Z snapping, which will allow you to more easily stack props on top of each other. This is useful to keep minis on top of bridges, if you want to put some trees on top of rocks, or other occasions when you need to quickly put a prop on top of another. You can turn this option on/off via a button on the top left of the screen.
UI Changes:
We made some UI changes to accommodate the new features added to this patch. The ping button has been moved to the top left of the screen, along with the grid overlay options, camera options, and Z/grid snapping options.
Bug Fixes:
We also did out standard bug fixes and quality of life changes for this update including the removal of the "map loaded" sound, etc.
You may have noticed that the new tile system is not included in this update. Unfortunately we ran into a few last-minute issues in adding it to the game at this time, nothing too crazy but we want to make sure the tool is more polished before releasing it to the community. These changes will definitely be coming soon, however. Thanks for everyone's understanding! :)
That about does it for this update! Please let us know what you think by leaving us a review on Steam, and don't forget to check us out on Discord. Thanks!
