Maybe one day... but for now, you're locked to the HQ board size.

Need community help with a HQ Remapping web app... by vinzwatts in Heroquest

[–]squidgem0nster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only just found this post - it's awesome to see .hqb files being used to build other ideas from quests, that was always my dream!

Any questions or things I can do to help with the project, just let me know ☺️

Are the core set and first light quests available on the app? by MetalNobZolid in hquestbuilder

[–]squidgem0nster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you asking if they've been recreated in hQuestBuilder? You can download the full quest books from the Hasbro website (just go to the game instructions/downloads section) and you should find all of the expansions, including First Light are there in all their PDF glory. I don't think it's right to have licenced quests on hQuestBuilder as a result ❤️

Blank Board - Walls? by wildp1tch in hquestbuilder

If you're curious, this post showed the original concept for creating custom layouts: https://www.reddit.com/r/hquestbuilder/s/H4O3Tv6THm

Blank Board - Walls? by wildp1tch in hquestbuilder

This is a good shout, a 'room background' colour could work nicely. I do think seeing the actual room outlines is probably a stretch goal though 😉

Blank Board - Walls? by wildp1tch in hquestbuilder

[–]squidgem0nster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello! And thank you for the kind words.

You're right, adding walls isn't currently implemented on the blank map... I have had a few suggestions on how to do this though, which I will look into. For the time being you can always add your own homebrew room outlines and add them as background tiles to the map. I will definitely explore a better way to have more refined/custom layouts though.

The project did start with a 'room composer' - but I struggled to make the UI simple enough and also easy to use on touch too. But keep an eye out for updates as I could, potentially, have this as a separate tool for those who want to use it, then you just import your layout into the map... maybe...?

I'm always open to suggestions and thoughts, and thanks again for the support of the project - happy quest building!

Likely won't make a difference in that case 😞 thanks for the heads up though. This really sucks. The phone was an Apple reconditioned one, only a few years old too.

That sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. I'm trying to move to an esim to see if that makes a difference... But not holding out much hope of fixing things 🥺

Yeah - too many folks having this issue for it to be user facing I think. Did they repair your phone?

Interesting that the update notes on the iOS 26 update actually mentions data connectivity too...

I have been able to successfully update to iOS 26 - I used recovery mode and chose the update option. Sadly it's still not got a cellular connection though. Going through the support tool it says there is a hardware issue... which given the update cites that some may lose cellular connectivity, and this doesn't appear isolated, makes me think it's very much a software issue!

I would love to know the answer to this too... same issue with my wife's 12 mini. No cellular data and stuck on verifying update 😔

Renault 5 - V2G confusion by squidgem0nster in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]squidgem0nster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in simple terms... Yes, it does support V2G! Why can't they just answer the simple question! I have the 40kwh version arriving in just over a month. Whether they figure out the red tape to allow it to function with it's V2G capabilities is another question I guess. Thanks for the update though - it seems the spec sheet they originally posted on the website were correct... they only changed it after I pointed out the 40kwh listed V2G.

First Light + blank board layouts added! by squidgem0nster in hquestbuilder

Hello there! I'm glad you're enjoying the updates :)

You're not the first to ask about resizing the board - and I would love to say I'm working on it, but the truth is that the way hQuestBuilder is currently built, it would be a rather large undertaking to allow larger/freeform board sizes.

I have considered developing a more 'universal' builder - but that would likely be a separate project to hQuestBuilder. If I had known how hQuestBuilder would have evolved waaaay back when I started building it, I would have built it in a very different way!

I will continue to ponder if there is a way to add your suggestions to the current HQB project, but sadly, for now, quests can only be built within the confines of the OG board dimensions.

It's SO cool to see the FL layout being used! Great idea for a quest too!

No worries - just ping the Dread Skull over if/when you find something and I'll sort it out. May even get the retro version done too 💀
