Hey everyone!
This week saw multiple improvements and additions to the mini-figure system. These improvements come in the form of easier naming, HP and shield tracking, specific player-mini assignments, more player permissions, and a number of other tweaks. These additions will allow players to have more customization and control not only over the minis on the board but also in controlling who has access to specific minis.
Please keep in mind that everything on this list is extremely early in development and may not reflect what may be released in any official future update.
- Easier Naming:
We’ve improved upon the naming feature that was added last week. There is now a proper UI element for naming minis. You will be able to find this feature in the “stats” button on the radial menu that is accessed by right-clicking a mini-figure. When the update launches there will be a number of customization options included in this radial menu.
- Mini Assignments:
Last week we added a function that allows the GM to deny players the ability to move and edit props on the map. You can now assign minis to individual players, allowing them to edit and move only the minis assigned to them. This will allow the GM more control over their players and the game in general.
- HP & Shields:
This week also brings about the first steps in stat tracking on individual minis. You can now keep track of a minis health with a widget on the radial menu (right-clicking a mini.) This widget will allow you to enter the max HP, current HP, as well as a “shield” or “temporary hp” stat. These stat bars will appear over the mini's head. Future updates will allow the GM to choose whether to display these stats to all players or keep them hidden for only the GMs view.
That does it for this week! We hope you’re liking these weekly devlogs. Please stay tuned for some more exciting news (including the next official update) coming shortly!
