BattleMapper is a fast, lightweight tactical map editor built for tabletop RPG Game Masters and players. Whether you are sketching a quick impromptu dungeon during a live session or prepping your next encounter on the go, BattleMapper lets you create clean, professional grid maps on your iPhone in seconds. TACTICAL DRAWING TOOLS Smart Walls: Single-tap to toggle wall segments, or drag across orthogonal paths with live dotted previews to build corridors and rooms effortlessly. Merged Doors: Place doorways along grid lines that automatically merge into unified, continuous entryways matching your walls. Secret Passages: Hidden doors rendered with distinct theme accents and vertical S glyphs. Stairs: Place tiered staircases inside individual grid cells, complete with directional up and down badges that toggle with a tap. Windows and Pillars: Add dashed window apertures and toggle circular or square stone pillars at grid intersections. 2D Drag-to-Erase: Tap individual items to erase, or drag a selection box to clear entire rooms, interior elements, and stairs in one motion. VISUAL THEMES Match your campaign atmosphere with multiple vector-rendered aesthetic styles: Pen and Paper: Classic hand-drawn graph paper with ink lines and warm wooden accents. Parchment: Antique fantasy parchment with rich earthen hues. Blueprint: High-contrast technical grid with crisp cyan and white lines. Dark Dungeon: Atmospheric low-light stone aesthetic for underground exploration. GRID CUSTOMIZATION Flexible Dimensions: Configure custom map sizes from 10x10 up to 60x60 squares. Major Grid Accents: Highlight every 5 or 10 squares for rapid movement and spell range estimation. Coordinate Headers: Optional alphanumeric labels (A-Z columns, 1-N rows) for precise player positioning and callouts. Measurement Units: Customize grid scale labels to match your system (5 ft, 1.5 m, 1 sq, 10 ft, or custom). Viewport Navigation: Smooth two-finger pan, pinch-to-zoom, and automatic initial camera centering. MAP LIBRARY AND BACKUPS Continuous Auto-Save: Every stroke, element placement, dimension change, and rename persists instantly in the background. Map Library: Organize, search, rename, and manage all your encounter maps.
