Overview
Overlay circle, square, and cone AOE templates over any VTT/map. Drag, resize, recolor, rotate (cone), and adjust opacity.
AOE Plotter Tool is part of the Tabletop Overlay Tools (TOT Dock), a suite of lightweight extensions designed for game masters who want more control and immersion at the table. The AOE Plotter gives you precise templates for spells, blasts, and effects. Drop circles, squares, and cones directly over your digital map, drag them into position, resize, rotate, and recolor them on the fly. Each template includes opacity controls and bold outlines so your players can clearly see the impact of their choices without cluttering the battlefield. The inspiration for the AOE Plotter comes from the challenge of running tactical combat on virtual maps. Drawing cones or measuring areas manually slows the game and breaks immersion. By turning these mechanics into simple overlays, TOT makes it effortless to resolve fireballs, breath weapons, and other large effects with just a click. Installation is simple. Once added, the AOE Plotter sits inside the shared TOT Dock, a unified bar that hosts multiple tools. The dock keeps everything organized and consistent, with one place to launch whichever overlay you need. Each tool can be toggled on or off independently, so your screen stays uncluttered. TOT Dock is designed to work both with popular virtual tabletops like Roll20, Foundry, and Owlbear Rodeo, and for DMs who run in-person games on a TV, monitor, or projector. Running digital maps at the table is immersive but comes with challenges—measuring AOEs quickly, showing spell effects clearly, tracking initiative order, or managing fog of war. TOT Dock provides overlays that solve these problems without requiring you to switch platforms or juggle extra windows. In addition to the AOE Plotter, other tools in the ecosystem include the Progress Clock for countdowns and tension, the Initiative Tracker for combat order, the Countdown Timer for pacing, and a Fog of War tool in development to reveal maps gradually. Each is modular, lightweight, and designed to work seamlessly together. Whether you run your games online or in person on a digital display, the AOE Plotter Tool and the TOT Dock ecosystem give you the missing functions you need to create smoother, more cinematic sessions.
