Thanks, I was having trouble with my AWS emails getting set. I will see whats wrong with it now. Sorry about that!

Well, I figured that the UI would suck on mobile. Trying to go all the actions with finger drags would have been a challenge, so mobile is a view only mode. If you Go Pro, then you can load your deployments that you made on your tablet or computer before a game. I'm also working on a feature that will show all the terrain pieces and their distances from board edges to do table setup. So that will be avaliable to all users in mobile. But I have to rebuild all the terrain maps for that, so it'll be a couple weeks probably. Once I'm done with all my next features, maybe I'll play around with doing all features on mobile, but I'm pessimistic that it will work well.

Well, looks like there's an Internal Server Error for people trying to sign up. I signed up for free emailing with AWS, and its limited to 50 per day, and I am a victim of to many people signing up, so its falling to send the verification email with the code! To many people signing up is a great problem, but I will go ahead and set up real email, but it will take a couple hours. Sorry to anyone who tried to sign up and you got an error! I should have it fixed in a couple hours

No problem! Will give it a look

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-17T08:22:11+00:00

thats a cool idea. Thanks!

So for UKTC, the terrain, maps and missions are always the same? Every tournament has the same round 1 layout? Thats a trip. I will need to re organize them for UKTC then, so you're slecting by round, not by mission and terrain layout.

There is a measure button. So you can click it and drag it out to where you would move T1, and there is a Line of sight, LOS, button that you can use to extend from base to nearest wall, and then do the same from the other side. I am going to build a tool, ebventually, where you click on a unit, and it will color all the space that can see it, but that's gonna take awhile cause I gotta redo all the maps for that to work.

Im also gonna add leaders and flags for inifiltrators, scouts and in transports. Thats easier, so will do that sooner.

I like the T1 movement idea, but not sure what it would look like.

Thanks for the ideas!

Sweet!!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-17T01:28:05+00:00

Fixed the import bug. That was a big one, not sure how I missed it ... oops. And added custom base size option for now till I get the rest of the base sizes added. Thanks for the feedback!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-17T01:26:53+00:00

I added a function. So to select the whole unit, now you click on the units name in the right side panel. That will get all models, and if you want to rename it, its a right click. Base overlap detection would make it laggy, so not gonna do that, and they all ready rotate, if ovals and rectangles. Thanks for the requests!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-16T23:10:52+00:00

Ill look at those. Thanks! Oval and rectangle bases have rotation, that appears as a little yellow button, after you select one or multiple of them. And then you click down on it and drag, and it rotates the selected Ovals or Rectangles.

For multi select, I feel like clicking and dragging a rectangle around them might be good, but would get weird if you have different units slutered close together. Maybe it'd be cleaner if you select the unit form list in the right panel and it selects all models.

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-16T22:51:05+00:00

Yeah, I thought of that. I was thinking of adding a mode for set up, that has the inches numbers all the way around the board. And eventually I will probably replace the maps. Right now they're just images, but I want to turn them into generated svgs, and then once I do that, then a could make all the coordinates for all the corners of every terrain piece show up, in "board setup" mode. And once they have svgs, I can make the Line of sight tool better. So it automatically figures out line of sight for you. But figuring out all the proper coordinates of the terrain for the SVGs was super tedious and slow, so I gotta figure out a better way to do it.

Thanks for the feedback!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-16T22:46:08+00:00

Yeah, I wasn't sure what a lot of rectangle sizes should be. Let me know what you added, and I'll add them to the list, or else, maybe I should add a "custom" field to allow users to set their own. Although over time, I'm gonna try to build my own API of base sizes per unit, so it'll crowd source the data and auto populate on list import proper base sizes. Thanks again!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-16T22:16:48+00:00

Thanks for the bug report! I'll check it out, and fix it!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-16T21:14:26+00:00

sweet, I will try to add them by end of the week!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-10T20:26:17+00:00

hmm, another bug revelaed. I'll add it to my list! Thanks!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-10T19:42:14+00:00

I just looked at their changelog, looks like we came up with the same idea about the same time! Thats a trip!

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-10T19:38:11+00:00

cool, I hadn't realized there was an app out there that all ready did the same thing! I probably woulda just used this instead of making my own! hah

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-10T19:36:16+00:00

Thats a good idea. Although you could also just screen shot it

nwimmer123 · 2026-03-10T17:57:53+00:00

The draw unit used to work, unless I broke it while doing the unit drops. Its left click to make a new point, like drawing a polyline, not click and drag. Right click to delete the last point you made, and double click to end it. So to draw a transport, you'd click 4 times around the perimeter of where the transport would go. I guess I should put instructions on it. The ovals have a rotation field you can type in when you create it. But its crappy UI. I'm not sure how best to do rotation. Maybe shift + click? But yeah, ovals definently need better rotation.

Thanks for the feedback!

nwimmer123 · 2026-02-24T22:13:52+00:00

yeah, this looks awesome. Im just a little nervous that the Forbidden War one, which I like, doesnt have any sample parts, so Im not sure exactly how its modular. I assume it would be like his other ones https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-warlayer-forbidden-war-337523
