I am loving Fantasy Grounds for Traveller. The couple of questions I have asked already have been answered pretty quickly. You all are a great and helpful community. I was playing around with the Marches Adventure 3, Search and Rescue. I already purchased Marches adventures 1-5, and have already run the first 2 adventures in person. So figured let's try this. Using the Story I have taken from the PDF and have it broken down in sections I think will work for me. I have my "practice campaign " where I have been testing and getting used to how things work.

So now my question is. How can I export this adventure as a book or module to put it in a different campaign that I would use with my players?

If there is a sticky on this I missed it.

Thanks.

Information on exporting to a module is available in the Wiki here: https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996640899/Using+the+Library+and+Activating+Modules#Module-Export

See the link that Trenloe posted above. Open the campaign that your story is in and either type /export in chat and press return or click the export button at the bottom of the modules window. Fill in the form with a name etc and then tick the circle next to story in the record type list and then click export. This creates a module with the name that you gave it which you can then open in any other campaign.

I used the Author extension to create the Mysteries of the Ancients and Secrets of the Ancients modules that are currently for sale on the store.
