Modding intermediate FAQ

This page is a growing FAQ for modding. Please see the basic pages first. Most of these are questions which were asked by modders in the discord modding channel, and answered by the dev team.

Q: I want to have an encounter which requires a female as one role (because the title I want has a gender.) How do I setup the role?

A: Slightly below the bottom of this screenshot, there is a section called "filter". Open the filter section, under aspects, click new, and select the desired aspect.

Q: Once I have a few text balloons in a comic frame, moving the balloons and the related pointers becomes very difficult. For example, this screenshot:

A: First, if you have more pointers than you want, you can turn off individual ones using the right side panel; click on pointerTarget for the related balloon, and select "null". If you still have too many buttons on the panel, one of the icons for each element is a minus sign. Click the minus sign, and all the related buttons for that element will go away. The minus is then replaced by a plus; click the plus to get all its buttons back. It can be helpful to click all the minuses first, and then one by one, click plus to get the buttons back for an element and position it.
