Scenes

Scenes in TAC represent locations in your adventure. Each scene consists of:

Core Elements:

• Background image (AI-generated from your description)
• Placements (monsters and notes)
• Walls and barriers
• Light sources

Creating Scenes

To create a scene, simply use the voice or text input and ask for it. Examples:

• "Create a dark tavern scene with a bar at the back and a bunch of tables"
• "Create a scene of a crystal cavern full of crystallized pools"

The AI will help generate appropriate descriptions and create the scene with a matching background image.

Updating Scenes

To update a scene, use voice or text input to request changes. Examples:

• "Update the tavern scene description to include more details about the bar"
• "Change the forest scene to be darker and more mysterious"
• "Generate a new image for the cave that shows more crystals"

The AI will help implement your requested changes while preserving existing scene elements.

Removing Scenes

To remove a scene, use voice or text input to request its deletion. Examples:

• "Delete the tavern scene"
• "Remove the unused forest scene"
• "Get rid of the old cave scene"

The AI will confirm and handle the scene deletion for you.
