Hi all,

if I'm activating "Turn of Fortune's Wheel" under "Modules" I don't see it in "Story". If I (for example) activate "Princes of the Apokalypse" or any other adventure I bought on FG I can find it there. What could be the reason for that and do I have to change something on my end, or is Fortune's Wheel just buggy?

For some time now adventure modules have used the reference manual rather than stories to tell the adventure. SO click on Reference from the library menu to get to the adventure.

OK, I had found that. I just was accustomed to the way "Story" partitioned the adventure. "Wild beyond the Witchlight" was the newest adventure I bought, but that's been 2 years. Oh well, if it's not a bug I must live with it as a feature. Sad.

The switch to reference manuals is because they are in every way better than story entries.

I notice that there is an unlabeled map of the mortuary basement in the reference document, but not one in the actual maps available to use. Is there an unlabeled one for use?

It's called "Map-1.1-Mortuary-Basement". You can find it under "Images" on the right.

The map (like all maps) for the mortuary has multiple layers. The mortuary map has two layers by default a player layer and a DM layer. The player layer is what the players see when the map is shared and the DM layer contains the labels. The DM layer is hidden by default so that it will not get shared to the players. If you are not seeing the labels then unlock the map and in the layers to the right make sure that the eye icon next to the DM-Layer-Basement is lit up. Make sure also that the hidden icon is greyed out - as shown in the image below.

Note that the map in the images list and the map that opens by clicking on the reference manual insert are one and the same.
