01:35 Winter survey results
Over the past month we asked you, what you want us to focus on next.
We are very grateful for your feedback and we listened closely to your requests, so the upcoming roadmap will be:
- Until Christmas/End of the year we will focus on improvements for the editor.
- Until end of the first quarter 2019 we will address the viewer
- Before we then continue adding new features to the editor, the gm-notes and the rest of the system.
If you want to learn more about the survey, check the video above.
03:57 December update - Blueprints
Over the past week we introduced the new feature "Blueprints" to our editor.
You are now able to take a scribble or an old map and upload it as a blueprint for your DUNGEONFOG maps.
There will be an in depth tutorial released next week, but if you want to see a short introduction check out the video above.
08:57 December update - Autosave
We have also reworked our approach on maps in our architecture: Everything you do with a map is automatically saved as a local database in your browser.
The good news: This introduces autosaves to your map making process. In case your laptop battery dies, your browser crashes or your RAM gets full, the current state of your map is stored locally and will be available once you re-open the map or refresh your browser.
The bad news: Since our new scripts are a lot less forgiving when it comes to flawed map data, older maps might cause an error and can not be opened. Due to our new mechanic to autosave maps we have a rather unforgiving routine to check for errors. The result is, that some older maps now show an error. Actually that error was there all the time, but our old script was accepting it nonetheless...
We now need to fix those maps manually to make them work with the new script, so if you encounter a map that can't be opened, please report this map and we will have it updated.
