One of the biggest challenges of digital mapmaking is the technical prep work required for Virtual Tabletops (VTTs) like Foundry VTT or Roll20. Dungeondraft 1.0.2.4 handled much of this heavy lifting automatically, making it a game-changer. Crucially, the Universal VTT export feature allowed GMs to export maps directly with pre-baked walls and dynamic lighting boundaries. This meant you could draw a building, and the software would automatically recognize where the walls were, drastically reducing the tedious setup time normally associated with moving a TTRPG session online.
