The campaign core

Theme

The four screens a campaign is actually used through — This week, the sessions list, the form that makes a session, and members & characters — plus the two pieces of chrome that belong to a campaign rather than to the app: the live-session bar and the banners. Then the frame Settings needs, with two of its nine sections drawn whole to set the pattern.

Everything sits inside lane 1's shell, unchanged. Same invented campaign: Dana runs The Amberwake Accord; Priya, Marcus, Tomás, Ines and Ade play in it.

Backfilled 18 September (#696). A row-by-row check found this page had dropped 34 of its features and half-drawn 30 more. They are drawn now, in the four campaign screens below; what changed is listed under Found, settled, and open.

The backfill (#696)

A row-by-row check on 18 September found this page had dropped 34 of its features and half-drawn 30 more. Most were states — what a form says while it saves and when it fails, what a list says when it is empty — and whole flows drawn only as the button that starts them: inviting, adding someone, editing a character, handing the campaign over. All of them are drawn now. Settings (CAMP-9 to 17) is lane 2b's, and is next.

Settled for the backfill

Decided while drawing, and would undo if you disagree

The coverage check

117 placements, none missing. 99 drawn, 7 replaced by a decision, 10 belonging to other surfaces, and 1 deferred (the post-session prompt, which is not specified yet). Before the backfill: 34 missing and 30 half-drawn. The check is coverage/lane2.py beside the catalogue.

Faults the backfill found

  1. Monday night's This week still asked "Are you in?", and offered the nudge, the prep card and the calendar, under a line saying the session was in five days. From the first drawing; lane 3 found the same on the session page.
  2. The empty Sessions stills had tab counts that contradicted them — "Upcoming 1" over "Nothing scheduled". Also from the first drawing.
  3. On a phone, the time picker's AM/PM fell onto a line of its own, under a slot number that had wrapped away from it too. Found by rendering.
  4. Marking a search match split the title, with gaps either side of the match. Found by rendering.
  5. A live session's row said "1:12 in" while the bar above it said 1:42. Found by rendering.
  6. Stills of very different heights shared a row, and consecutive stills had no space between them. Found by rendering.

Three things wrong in the catalogue, found while scoping this lane

Settled

What I decided myself, and would undo if you disagree

The other seven settings sections (Invites, Ownership, Recording & AI, Wiki, Content packs, Foundry, Archive & delete) are drawn in lane 2b.
