🎛️ Cinematic Control Panel

The Control Panel is the command center for the GM. It allows you to trigger effects on demand, manage presets, and orchestrate group attacks without opening individual character sheets.

🚀 Accessing the Panel

1. Look at the Token Controls (Left sidebar, Orange Pawn icon).
2. Click the Cinematic Control (⚡) tool button.

👤 Tab 1: Actors (Individual Control)

This tab lists all actors you have permission to modify. It allows for quick triggering of presets during gameplay.

🔍 Search & Filter

• Search Bar: Quickly find an actor by name.
• Filters:
  • All: Show everyone.
  • PC: Show only Player Characters (Has Player Owner).
  • NPC: Show only Non-Player Characters.

⚡ Quick Actions (Per Preset)

Expand an actor's row to see their saved presets. You will see several buttons:

1. ▶ Play: Immediately plays the cut-in on everyone's screen.
2. 👆 Interaction (Fingerprint): Sends a "Ready?" Prompt to the owner of that actor.
   • Usage: Instead of the GM forcing the cut-in, a button appears on the Player's screen. The player clicks it to activate their own cut-in. Great for player agency!
3. </> Copy Macro: Generates a script macro for this specific preset.
   • Instant: Code to play immediately.
   • Prompt: Code to send the Interaction Prompt.
4. 🗑️ Delete: Removes the preset.

☄️ Creating Group Attacks

• Checkboxes: You can check the box next to multiple actors.
• Create Selected (Bottom): Click the Meteor Icon at the bottom to instantly create a new Group Assault preset with the selected actors.
