🖳Terminal
Create Interactive terminals with custom content and theming. A map note alternative.
📃 Usage
1. Create a new tile
2. link a journal to the tile and check "enabled" within the tile's new Terminal tab.
3. walk onto the tile with any token. This will open Termainal's UI allowing for immersive Journals as well as other features described below.
🔎 Details
If the player lacks permission to the Journal they will be given Observer. Upon leaving the tile they will be prompted to share the Journal with their party. If they do the Journal will become Observer for everyone.
This works as an alternative solution to map notes. I personally found map notes to be annoying in that they could be easily misconfigured with permissions or not even viewable when checked off from the control panel. This solves both those issues by handling permissions all automatically.
I post updates to project on itch.io

🔑 Access
There are two locations to purchase this module:
Both methods will permanently add the module to your Foundry account. I'd recommend foundryvtt.store since with itch it requires the extra step of adding the purchased key to your Foundry account, for that follow Foundry's guide under "Content Key" to add the key.
Since access is permanent, you receive all future updates for free
❤️ Compatibility
The module plays well with popular modules: Levels, Puzzle Locks, and Monk's Active Tiles
