A Note from the CTO, Mike Todd: Stability, Accountability, and Our Path Forward

Dr DM said: This is by far the most annoying thing from Demiplane, as far as I'm concerned. Ok, thanks. I can't yet promise any time frame on improvements to that being live, but our team in charge of this will start investigating and scoping this next week.

In the past Roll20 said that 200 votes would garner a response.&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/category/385189/?orderby=popular" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/category/385189/?orderby=popular</a> I think some of the useful customer feedback is there, some longstanding user frustration points.&nbsp; Since 2022, we've been keeping with the process outlined in the forum's pinned post. "We pay particular attention to suggestions that have gained support quickly, those that are small quality-of-life enhancements, and those in the top 20 of all suggestions. If a suggestion is in the top 10, you can expect updates from staff in thread when the suggestion changes status." For example, today we were able to close this one asking for Copy + Paste for Doors &nbsp;because it was in an area that the team was working already to support the Map Pins suggestion, which was at No. 2 late last month when it was closed. My stats are a little bit old, but since 2022, we've completed 20 of the Top 50 Suggestions by Vote Count (representing more than 10,500 votes). "those in the top 20 of all suggestions." So is there any progress on&nbsp; Transmogrifier allow copying of folder s or generally an easier and better way of moving things, then? It matches the top 20 and top 10 at this point. Although there's been mostly silence on it for awhile now.&nbsp; If a suggestion is in the top 10, you can expect updates from staff in thread when the suggestion changes status. Unfortunately, there's no change in status as of today. As soon as there is, I will be in that thread.

Hi Greg - Peter from Demiplane here. Thanks for being direct.&nbsp;What you described (friction between sites, restricting GMs, and lost session time) is not the experience we want people having.&nbsp;Several of the areas you've called out maps directly to work already underway on performance, sign-in and syncing flow, and homebrew. There was also a stat-saving issue for a period that has since been fixed. If you're ever back in and using NPCs again, you are able to customize a great deal of the NPC's stat block by selecting the header. Each drawer that opens has an edit command that allows for fairly deep customization. That's not the same as a custom NPC - which is underway - but I wanted to share this if you find yourself using the NPC sheets again. I know first impressions stick. I mainly wanted to acknowledge that the frustrations you raised are understood and tied to areas under active development. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Greg said: Steve W. said: Plural and Greg - For Demiplane, I would appreciate hearing any specifics you have on what is most annoying to you about the integration. We have it a go. I even (regretfully) bought the Daggerheart ruleset on Demiplane. The website feels slow and overdesigned. My players were very confused and annoyed they had to go to another website to create their characters. Importing them to roll20 worked about half the time and was slow. I don’t doubt the performance can be improved, but just simply having to now go through two websites to use a character sheet was far too cumbersome and unnecessary.&nbsp; It was also stifling as a GM. I couldn’t create new NPCs, I could barely modify the in-built creatures I did try to import, and half the time they lost all their stats anyway. I resorted to pen and paper instead and my players spent half the session fighting Demiplane that we just abandoned it after 2 sessions.&nbsp; Again, I understand the features to customize are coming someday, but it was a souring experience out of the gate. I felt completely locked as well, once a game was linked Demiplane to a roll20 game. There was no &nbsp;ability to change the sheet or modify it. It felt quite stifling. &nbsp; If it only supplied rules and stock monster stats without enforcing a locked down character sheet that would have been a much better experience. &nbsp;
