"Roll20 Enhancements" to a module (dynamic lighting) ... ?

Hi, brand new to Roll20, got a 1st question (of many, I'd imagine). I'm looking at buying a module (LMoP) to run for my players.  Under "Roll20 Enhancements" it lists several features, including " Dynamic lighting (a  plus / pro feature ) to add more drama to your game." Does this mean that LMoP has "virtual plus/pro" built-in with the use of Dynamic Lighting, and even free-account GM's get the feature? Or does it mean that the necessary work for Dynamic Lighting is incorporated, and ready to use, for those GM's who have already paid for a membership here? TYVM!

The second one is correct - all the Dynamic Lighting content & settings is already done for you. You won't be able to use the content without a Plus or Pro subscription though.
TYVM Oosh! but only the GM needs plus/pro, is that correct?  Players still see the maps with DL even if they're on free accounts?
Yes, that's correct. It's the way my group is using the exact same module. M

Slight technical correction. The creator of the game needs the subscription. The game creator is not always the GM.

I presume the role of "GM" is one that is assigned by the "creator," usually assigned to themselves?  I guess much will become clear to me as I explore... and play!

That's right - there are some things that only a Creator can do, so a non-creator GM is limited in a couple of ways. Unless you have a specific reason to set it up otherwise, you'd generally want the GM to also be the Creator (this is the default behaviour).
