Lancer Map Maker

Across the Orion Arm great frames clash in a crush of steel and ideologies. Now, those worlds and spaces can be yours, terraformer. This mod is a companion to the Lancer RPG Tabletop Mod, and is designed to help you create maps that pair well with it. I have been working on this for a while, and I am so excited to share. ~ A wide array of assets from all-over the workshop for creating terrestrial, void, and paracausal environments. ~ Tools such as environmental effects to bring your maps to life, guides to help you track the scale of objects as you build, and more ~ A growing array of example maps to tinker with or use in your own games. ~ An easy-to-follow guide and layout for designing maps and encounters for mech-scale combat.

Decide on a roughly 30x30 hex part of the map to be the zone of action. This will be smaller than the table, and that is a good thing! If the arena is the size of the whole table your map will be too far apart! 3. Start adding 3d Objects! The object bags sorted in the center and along the left are terrain, buildings, and base structures, while the bags on the right are largely detailing. Make a copy of each bag before you dig in so you can make another copy to work with later if you need! If you plan for models to walk on something, make sure Grid Projection works on it using the Toggles on the object's right-click menu! If you do, you can use TTS's built-in grid feature to play. Remember to try placing a test model on surfaces from time to time to make sure that your collisions are ok!. You can use models from other mods as well, just find that mode under Games> Search and place the objects you like. Remember that the uses of models aren't p
