Player Window

The player window is a pop-out view that is designed to be shared over video sharing apps like Discord or Zoom. Any updates to the scene on the original window will be synced to the player window. Hidden tokens and parts of the scene that haven't been revealed by light won't be visible on this window.

The DM can pause the player window by clicking the pause button. Any changes you make on your window won't be reflected in the player window until syncing is resumed. This is a good time to setup a surprise attack by vicious goblins! Resume action by clicking play.
