Hey, Dunjinnis! Is there a way to add secret doors to maps? I thought there might be an overlay object in the "traps" or "pits" folders, but no luck there. I am trying to build a section of dungeon with no obvious entry points, but secret doors imbedded over some (apparent) stone walls. Help appreciated- thanks!

Right-click on the door and you will see a dialogue box come up. One of the choices offered is to make that door secret. When you print the map, it will print with an "S" on that door. If you want to make a player map, one of the options in the print dialogue is whether or not you want the secret doors to print.

Frost-
Thanks! I will give that a shot! I will have to play around with right-clicking objects in general; I did not realize you could do that until I saw a post about the Reaper tokens.
On the secret doors: I assume that you would superimpose the door object leaving the wall intact, correct? If I carve out a hole in the wall for the door, even if it is secret on the players map they will see a space in the wall (I think).

There are also some really nice door markers posted in the objects forum.

Yeah. Do not remove the walls. Also, I think that it is better to make a GM map, then make a copy of it for working on a player map. This way you can cover up the hidden rooms.
