[QUOTE="Luke, post: 20489, member: 602"] Hi Velik, It's not at all late. This is what the "beta features request" is all about. I simply rank the importance of all feedback, and do what I can to fit it all into the beta. Nice idea! I've often though about attaching creatures to a location, but avoided it since you can move them around anywhere on the map. I like where you're going with the "Adventure" report though, and can see the benefits - especially if you don't want to go "in-game", and simply use RPM for game preparation. How's about this for a thought: What if I let you associated a [b]group[\b] of creatures with a location, and well as the map itself? There's less fiddling, since assigning a group does it for all the creatures of the group, and you could still report the creatures belonging to a specific loaction. Good to see you playing with reports at this level of depth! I've been waiting for a few people to start playing with reports, before filling out doco for it.
