kanka VS dragonflagon-fvtt

If you know your way around Docker or can set up a php -environment you can host Kanka yourself.

Here is the github repository. There is a bit of a tutorial there but I don't know how good it is as it did not exist when I was building my instance (I also think it uses Docker, while I just host on Windows with WAMP).

Here's the Github page

Yeah, you can find the github here. I use Wampserver to host it.

Open Source, and easily self-hostable ideally via a docker container similar to kanka

We also use kanka.io as a player resource. They take turns writing the journal entry for the current session, linking up NPCs, locations etc, and making notes of the stuff their characters learn and/or figure out.

I use https://kanka.io for my games and you can create a custom calendar there. You can add weather, moon cycles, seasons, all the fun stuff.

I use https://kanka.io to manage my campaign, if you're familiar with World Anvil it's the same idea. Like a wiki site for your game.

In the meantime I'd suggest using DF Architect and DF Curvy Walls to make your life easier. There aren't many maps I've seen which can't have their walls draw manually in a few minutes.

DragonFlagon Curvy Walls - tools for drawing curved walls

Dungeondraft is going to be better for creating full maps. Foundry isn't awful for creating maps, particularly with the right modules - the DragonFlagon ones like Architect and Curvy Walls are great, so is Dungeon Draw for on-the-fly stuff - but at the end of the day, map-making softwares are better for making maps to then export to Foundry for use.

Also, DF Hotkeys should let you rebind many (most?) keys that are already registered in Foundry.

DF Manual Rolls: Allows toggleable behavior for requesting manual rolls, inserting that value into regular roll actions

This is a known issue. Unfortunately I haven't had the spare time to get through my back-log of issues yet. But you can keep an eye on this ticket: https://github.com/flamewave000/dragonflagon-fvtt/issues/297

DragonFlagon Active Lights

DF Chat Enhancements has capabilities for logging in addition to other things, and it does a really good job.

DragonFlagon Chat Enhancements https://github.com/flamewave000/dragonflagon-fvtt/tree/master/df-chat-enhance I'm mostly using this mod for the ability to edit chat messages. The idea is that players would use this to state their actions, and then be able to change their mind later if someone else does something unexpected, or does something that would cause the original actions to "fizzle".
