New to FG, I've been reviewing and comparing features to other platforms. I'm liking FG so far, but have some Qs about what improvements are being implemented with Unity.That said it looks like I'm going this direction and have enjoyed exploring the product thus far even if it has room for improvement.
I understand some details can't or have not been disclosed, but seeing the active developers on these boards (which is fantastic btw) it can't hurt to ask!
Will these features be available in FG?
-create custom races and classes integration - Par5e is a fantastic community tool, however to be candid I'm very suprised considering the investment to use this software these features are not fully integrated already. The community doesn't seem to bothered by this which is fair I suppose - I AM just the new guy!!
-create custom deities (I actually see no implementation of deities which can be a big part of a custom campaign setting - can't even find extensions to facilitate this in modules)
-tracking Locations, custom shops, areas, defining cosmology. I see this as an extension it's great, I am using it. Will unity integrate this I wonder. It seems like a standard goto extension for documenting adventures and a campaign setting.
-ditto for sounds extension. Seems a valuable resource to leverage to simply include the feature
-avatar image in the NPC / monster statblocks would be nice minor touch
-map building tools this one is obviously a big one. Something like Inkarnate integrated for world maps and floor plan battle maps would really great. I cannot find an equivalent quality and easy to use layout builder.. Tried a few, but not happy with anything yet.
FG is already a pretty decent package today. IMO (although humble and noobish) these offerings with a new streamlined UI would set FG high above other VTTs and really force people to consider an investment into FG vs something like Roll20.
I can see fog of war is already being added and some network UI as well BTW. Looking forward to seeing what the new update brings :)
