Everybody is in a different state. That is fine. The Station runs on one screen,
everybody else runs a Field Unit on their phone, and the two talk over the open
internet. No Wi-Fi to share, no laptop to plug in.
ROOM (everybody must type the same one)
Letters, numbers, dashes. One game per room.
1. ONE person opens the Station.
The big screen, and the referee. It holds the game, so it stays open the whole fight.
Configure the roster and rules first in MISSION SETUP if you want something other than the defaults.
2. Everybody else opens a Field Unit.
On your phone. Pick your name at the top, then move, act, roll, lock.
Or jump straight in as yourself:
3. Text this link to the guys.
…
STATION LINK (for the guy running the big screen)
…
IF SOMETHING GOES SIDEWAYS
Phone shows NET OFFLINE in the corner: it is retrying on its own, give it a few seconds.
Phone stuck on CONNECTING: the Station tab is closed. Reopen it, then reload the phone.
Wrong game entirely: somebody typed a different room. Compare the link, not the memory.
Everything is stale: reload the Station last, phones first. The Station holds the encounter.
Reloading the Station starts a NEW encounter from round one. That is the reset button.
