Editor missions keep a painted map or roll a random map per campaign run,
leave out goals they cannot have, and run their triggers in the fixed step.

Touch clicks in menus happen on release without a swipe. The first-start
language picker is a flag grid that scrolls.

- caverns in free play and the campaign (mission pieces, fortresses, islands, sealed caves and dwarf caves stay untouched)
- caverns sometimes hold a pool of water or lava, veins in their walls, rarely a small treasure or a creature in chains to free
- rivers keep away from the start; test: open share, liquids and a hero path to the core
- standalone file in play/ rebuilt

- prison: captured heroes sit in cells apart from the torture chamber, do not defect and starve in time; the hand can move prisoners between cells and torture
- graveyard: the fallen are buried there; after a while some rise as revenants (undead: no food, no sleep, life drain from level 5)
- guard post: creatures hold the position and attack whatever comes into view
- arena: creatures spar in pairs for fast, free experience, at the cost of bruises
- sacrifice altar: creatures dropped on it are sacrificed; certain pairs bring a rare creature, otherwise a blessing (mood and mana)
- researched in the library, campaign unlocks, textures, furniture, texts EN/DE, bestiary

- every kind loves one room (working there lifts the mood) and cannot stand certain other kinds; close by they sour each other's mood and now and then brawl (they stop at 30% health)
- learned abilities: imps dig faster, kobold dash, spider web, mage shadow step, ogre stomp, jailer shackle, priestess healing pulse, chainbreaker whirlwind, bat shriek, gargoyle stone form, owl volley, wyrm inferno, cogling bomb
- bestiary lists likes, hatreds and the ability (highlighted from its level on)

- explored tiles stay known (saved compactly as bits), enemies are only drawn while in sight; sight runs along open ground, walls block it
- unexplored tiles are black blocks; units, towers, torches, furniture, portals, gate and rival cores in the dark are hidden; minimap and tile info too
- the nearest portal is known from the start; the seer's eye opens a wide area for 20 seconds without remembering it

- researched in the library (and unlocked in the campaign), in the spells menu with own icons and a radius under the pointer
- haste speeds up everything a creature does, stoneskin halves damage, invisible creatures are ignored by enemies and towers until they attack (drawn see-through), plague spreads among enemies, quake hurts and stuns enemies only, cave-in turns floor back into earth
- particles for every spell

- studying creatures collect research points (mages and owls best, higher levels faster); studying gives less mana than before
- free play starts with the basics; campaign missions know what their story allows and can research what the next four missions would bring
- research shown in the top bar; the library's info lists the current item and what comes next; locked tools say whether they can be researched
