A powerful idea that has been planned for a long time is that of procedurally adding editing handles to the 3D scene that allow manipulation of Entity parameters in much more intuitive and expedient ways.

The Unity version of Apparance (as used on Gloomhaven) was the lead version originally but an Epic Megagrant drove focus to the Unreal version which is now the lead platform.

A huge advance in usability and accessibility to procedural techniques will be afforded by the ability to produce ‘packages’ of procedures for distribution and re-use.
