Map Line of Sight Style Guide

Earlier videos may contain features that have changed either visually or in function since the video was created. This is due to Fantasy Grounds Unity being in active development during filming.

For example: the Sidebar may now look different. More information about that here:

Door Tips

If you already have wall points available, you can use the mouse to snap to those points when you add the points for the door. You don’t want any gap between the door and the wall because that will allow line of sight to peek through the doorways. If you overlap an existing set of walls, you will see Fantasy Grounds Unity add additional points at each of these intersections. You can then delete any extra points.
