Reveal for GM

I still use containers but given the RW PE implementation and the inability to run the RW PE version in a separate window on my computer so I can monitor how things display in quasi-real time due to installation restrictions, containers are suspect.

Or you switch the GM version into "Player Edition" mode to see exactly what a player will see when he syncs.
 
Is it an exact replica? If yes, it's helpful but it still means toggling back and forth and back and forth to make adjustments. Eventually I'd get the hang of it but initially at least it sounds painful.

CLARIFICATION:

Access to content in general will be through PLAYER accounts that are tied to each USER of the product.

However, once we get individual reveal control implemented, that will be PER CHARACTER.

Therefore, if a player runs two characters, he'll be able to see what BOTH of those characters know, individually OR (hopefully) collectively.

I hope this eliminates any confusion on the subject... :)

+1 and glad to hear it IS going to happen.... I guess timing is based on the poll.

*snip*Maybe it would be possible in that situation, when you flag such information as being encountered by the group, that RW reveals it (or part of it) without actually showing the content.

So for example, when you flag the NPC "Alecto" as encountered, all players would see in their PE an entry that only shows the tags "Human" and "Female", leaving the actual name blank and only the player who noted her name would also get to see the actual name.*snip*

I think the intent is you should reveal an alias for "Alecto." Maybe one that says something like "Human Female" or something like that...

Blank entry names are more elegant. They're also easier to add. It also sounds like it'd be easier to code, if I were designing this from scratch.

It would be quicker than having to sync your GM edition up to the server, and then sync your Player Edition down from the server!
