Player Pilot is a mobile-first player control panel for Foundry VTT. It gives players a streamlined interface for common table actions without needing to navigate the full character sheet or desktop UI.
Features include actor actions, spells, features, token movement, targeting, map pings, rests, and table-facing requests. The module is intended for groups where players use phones, tablets, secondary devices, or simplified player-facing controls during play.
The module is free to use and publicly available. Optional support links may be provided through the project page, but the module itself is not premium content and is not behind a paywall.
Setup
- Install and enable module
- Enable for players: `Game Settings -> Configure Settings -> Player Pilot` Then click `Configure Players` and enable for the player. (NOTE: make sure the player has OWNERSHIP over their desired ACTORS/Tokens.
- Share the invite url and let them login with their GM assigned username/password on their phones
