If you would like to help by supporting what I do and in doing so, unlock a few perks across the site, feel free to check out my support link below, thank you.

Core Database Build plus Creation and Deletion (Complete)

The creation of a robust database structure is crucial for the functionality of the user interface, allowing the dynamic display and editing of character sheets. This involves coding and populating default information to generate blank characters. Additionally, the implementation of a character deletion feature is essential for managing character lists, enabling users to efficiently remove outdated or unnecessary entries, optimizing space and enhancing the overall user experience.

Character Sheet Viewing (Pending)

The ability to view the character sheet is a must, prompting the development of a user-friendly interface (UI) dedicated to facilitating this crucial feature. The UI has been meticulously designed and constructed to dynamically showcase the character sheet, ensuring an optimal viewing experience. With this foundation established, the next pivotal step is enhancing the sheet-editing functionality. The UI, now complete for viewing, sets the stage for a seamless transition into the ongoing development of robust editing options, promising a feature-rich experience. The goal is to not only meet the immediate need for sheet visibility but also to evolve towards a comprehensive and customizable character sheet editing capability.

Character Sheet Editing (Pending)

Having finalized the UI for character sheet viewing, the subsequent focus is on enhancing the ability to edit these sheets. The development of this feature is underway, with a current status of being functional and ready for use. While the foundation is in place, there's an ongoing expansion of options to refine the editing process. In the future, we aspire to introduce features allowing users to select from a core rules list or incorporate custom variables such as Clans or Disciplines. These additions are in the pipeline, and we anticipate rolling them out over time.

Character Sheet Sharing and Linking (Complete)

Facilitating the sharing of character sheets is integral, catering not only to the social dynamic among friends but also streamlining the process for storytellers. This feature eliminates the necessity of maintaining multiple static PDFs that often go unchanged or outdated over time. By providing a unique token, we offer a seamless solution for your friends or storyteller to view your character sheet without the need for printing or exporting, enhancing collaborative storytelling and minimizing document management complexities.

Character Sheet PDF Exporting/printing (Pending)

Enabling the export feature for our character sheets is crucial. There are instances where your storyteller or friends may not use this platform, or you might find yourself traveling and in need of a copy on a tablet or phone. Recognizing this necessity, we are currently in the process of developing the export functionality, with the goal of making it feasible to have your character sheets accessible beyond our platform. Though it is still in the development stage, we are actively working towards making this a reality.

Character Sheet UI (Desktop / Tablet) improvements (Pending)

Although the initial design was primarily geared towards computer usage, the evolving landscape of online gaming has seen a significant shift towards the use of iPads and phones. The online gaming community, while traditionally reliant on computers for virtual tabletop sessions, now embraces these portable devices as essential tools for connectivity. Therefore, the current phase involves a comprehensive redesign aimed at enhancing compatibility with iPads and phones, ensuring a seamless and responsive user experience across various mediums.
