  • TABLETOP SIMULATOR

Tabletop Simulator is a powerful and sometimes frustrating platform. With that power comes some complexity and a lot of features that may not be obvious. This series highlights some features in TTS that you may or may not be familiar with.

You can set the order in which objects are drawn out of a bag. Right-click on the bag and select Order. There are three options:

  • LIFO (Last In First Out): Think of this as a reverse queue. The most recent object placed into the bag will be the first to be drawn out of the bag. This is the default setting for bags.
  • FIFO (First In First Out): This is basically a queue. Anything placed into the bag moves to the end of the queue. That means you could use a bag to simulate a queue and save table space.
  • Random: It does what it says on the tin. This is probably what most people want since bags are typically used as randomizers in analog games.
