Hi,
I am making a plugin for a playtest group to use for online play for a new game. This game has players move cards around on a hex-board. Direction of travel for the cards is denoted by the direction the front of the card is pointing. This is a core mechanic of the game.
the thing is, this seemingly simple thing does not seem possible in the game. I can't seem to find anything that lets me rotate cards in a custom direction, only can rotate right, upside down, and forward. Am I missing something?
Yeah, unfortunately there's no way to do that in Lackey. You could try using notes, or perhaps visually tying a color of counter to each direction?
Another janky idea might be to pick a corner of the card that will indicate direction. Then you've got four out of your available six directions covered, so only the other two would need a workaround.
Obviously none of these is nearly as straightforward or elegant as what you could easily do with physical cards, but oftentimes with Lackey we have to find creative workarounds.
