Live game tools

Feature Request

I use the maps by downloading them and demonstrating them to my fellow players on my second screen which is on the table.

The problem is that I can't change the map live here. I would like to be able to move the taskbars around the edges and drag them onto my main screen so I can add and remove stuff live in game. So I would no longer download the maps but let them play live on the website. You could add other live tools to this. Maybe even an extra mode for it, for example, where traps are invisible and become visible when you click on them, etc. Or imagine an enemie is dying and you can add a pool of blood to his place of death in a few seconds. Or a wall get broken by a spell and you can exchange it with a ruin. In other words, I want to be able to access all the tools that the editor offers during a game without taskbars on the same screen and maybe with some extra tools for a live game.

    Running games in Inkarnate

    I complained about this on one of your Facebook posts after I gushed about your Lovecraftian assets. I apologize! It honestly didn’t occur to me to find your feedback section. I imagine people have asked for an ability like this at Inkarnate’s inception, so maybe it’s a choice that y’all haven’t taken this step yet.

    However, I love using Inkarnate to make maps, but I’m dying to run a game directly in Inkarnate. I don’t need a ton of UI either. We have our own books and dice, and tracking initiative isn’t hard. I just want to open my map without the editing tools visible and place/move tokens. Maybe let me cover/uncover layers for vertical travel/hidden areas and change the time of day filter. Bare bones. I apologize if this is a tired request at this point, (I see the post below called “Live Game Tools”) but I had to put it out there.

    you could also add livetools that makes it poosible to click on a note on the Ground and players can read them then. Or rooms in Shadow which can be light up by the Gamemaster at the right moment
