Release Notes: v1.1.0
New features to sign up for new account, log in, manage game systems, create new characters, manage friends lists, create new games, accept or decline game invites, and game chat features available including rolling.
Features
Sign up for a new account
Simple email/password; it can be anything you want (even a fake email), but you should probably use a real email that you have access to in case you need to reset your password
If you need to reset your password, let me know and I can trigger the password reset process (we’ll build this into it later so you can do it yourself)
Log into an existing account (if you’ve already made one)
Log out using the arrow button to the left of the hammer button on the Games screen
User profile/friends screen (blue hammer button on the Games screen)
Download the D&D rules system (this is necessary for some things to function within the app)
In the Manage Game Systems card, tap on Download D&D 5e (this may take up to 30 seconds, depending on your connection speed)
Create a new character
In the Create Something New card, tap on Character
Enter a name and tap on Next
There's currently a bug where any edits you make after this point save on a NEW character, but you can get around this by exiting out from the rest of the character creation flow and then selecting the character from the Characters card
The Look button doesn’t do anything right now
You should be able to fill out info on the Bio section
You can tap on Character Sheet and then select the Create New option
You should be able to select a Race (and make any selections within that) and a Subrace (if applicable)
Other steps will be added soon
There currently isn’t a way to add a character to a game you’re part of (coming later)
Characters you’ve already made should appear in a Characters card under the Create Something New card, and you should be able to edit them from here
Manage friends list
Tap on Friends at the bottom of the screen
Incoming friend requests should appear at the top and current friends should appear below
You should be able to accept or decline a request
Tap on the search icon to go to the friend search screen
You should be able to search by name (the name that you set when you set up your account)
You should be able to send friend requests from here, see incoming requests (inbox icon on the right; tapping on this should open a dialog where you can accept or decline it), and see current friends
Create a new game
From the Games screen, tap on the plus button to the right of the hammer button
Enter a name
Select a theme (this is basically just a color theme and doesn’t affect gameplay)
Add additional players
The Add Friends section at the bottom will populate with existing friends (it also appears to add users from pending friend invites, but I think that’s a bug)
You can add users to the list above and remove them from it (though you can’t remove yourself)
The add button in the Add Friends section currently doesn’t do anything
Select a Game Master
Drag the crown onto a player (or just tap on them), and then tap Next
You should be taken back to the Games screen and the new game should be added and you should be able to view the game chat by tapping on it
Accept or decline a game invite
While on the Games screen, pending game invites should appear in a card at the bottom
Swiping from left to right should accept, and swiping from right to left should decline
If you accept the invite the game should appear in your list of games and you should be able to view the chat
If you decline the invite then it should just clear this card (we still need to add a mechanism to manage users in a chat after a game has been created)
Game chat
You should be able to send a chat message
You should be able to start a dice roll
Tap on the dice icon on the right of the chat input (only shows if no text has been entered)
Enter a title next to the Roll For… heading at the top; the arrow next to the roll summary will be disabled until you've done this
You can select the number of dice, dice type, and specify if the roll is with advantage or disadvantage
You can long-press on each button to select directly or tap to open a description card
There's a bug with these buttons right now, so just long-press on them
You can use the "+" button at the bottom of the Dice card to add another die type; this can be used to build a "dice pool" of various dice types
You can add custom modifiers
Once you tap on the arrow near the top, a roll announcement card will appear in the chat
You can swipe on a roll announcement card for a roll that you have done (or other player's rolls if you are the GM) to do the roll or discard it
If you swipe to do the roll, you will be able to review your selections, hit the arrow to confirm, and then Quick Roll near the bottom to do the roll
A roll result card will appear in the chat
Discarding a roll announcement will remove it as well as the roll result it corresponds to
