Import/Export maps presets

April 04 (3 years ago)

Edited April 04 (3 years ago)

So here's the idea :

- Have you ever wanted to move that specific furniture (a sofa for example) from the map because a player is pushing it ?
- You got a great Door Script but can't make the door move because it's bound to the .png of the map ?

I'm pretty sure 90% of the GMs will say yes to alteast one of these. Me too !

And that's why I'm coming here with this interesting idea :


How about instead of making a .png with everything on the map, creators where able to make a preset inside a roll20 game where the background of the map would be in map layer and the furnitures/doors, etc.. would be in token layers.

Finally they could export it for us to import it in our games !

My solution for the library would be to automically download all assets inside the user's Library when importing the preset. Of course, for logical reasons (stockage), it would be a Pro only feature.

Not only would it make another good reason to buy the Pro, but it would be a revolutionary turn for the VTT/Roll20 mapping community.

I hope you will consider this idea, since importing/exporting already works for macros (with Roll20ES) and there's already a "copy map layers" feature.

Respectfully.
