I think it will take time for most groups. Habits are hard to form.

Question one.
As DM, I see this.

Perfect. Even better, I think I can format it, right? If not, still perfect as is.
On my player side, I see this:

I wanna give my players more agency. :D I want them to be able to view and (more importantly) edit that information for themselves.
How can I achieve this?
You'll need to change the extension to make all of the boxes editable by the players; or include all the information in the description and/or PC notes.
So if I wanted to edit this myself, if I'm looking at this right, it would be around line 209 in /campaign/scripts/world_main.lua right around "if not User.isHost()", yes?
Maybe possibly in Line 54 of "world.lua" if Non Hosts are able to update with no problem? And similar places in the Investigator scripts? I just want to know if I'm on the right track here. I'm used to scripting languages, but never use LUA really. I'm familiar with Perl, PHP, JavaScript, various Markup languages, etc, and it seems to follow similar patterns, I just have to get used to syntax.
the if not User.isHost is to do with making it visible.
making it editable by multiple users is very problematic
first you have to make teh editor the owner, and what happens if someone else starts an edit while you are editing? the owner will be changed to the next person and your edits wont get written.
Hmm. I'll look further into it, see what I can do. But making those things visible that I want visible it certainly a first step. :D
First off thank you damned for this great extension. The world builder part of this extension is extremely useful for a collaborative campaign. One record type that would be nice to have would simply be Other. If it had fields for Description, GM Notes, PC Notes and Images; it could be used for descriptions of food, flora, fauna, customs, races, cultures, or anything else the players or GM creates that would be well served to be linked in other parts of the world builder. I looked at the extension, but feel like it would be beyond me to create this addition, and certainly other GMs could use another place for other types of campaign information. Is this something that is already in the works, or can we add it to a wishlist?
Ok Ive added a new feature.
You can now tick a checkbox on all fields except GM Description and these fields will also be available to players that have access to the record.
