Travelling At Night Tools Hub

Planning widgets for combat-free CRPG experiments

Tools Hub

Tools on this wiki turn Travelling At Night theory into notes you can reuse between demo runs. Because the game is combat-free and densely branching, the highest-value tool is a build planner that captures Career, Passion, and skill priorities before Memories blur your thesis.

Available tools

  • Build Planner — interactive widget on the page for Career, Passion focus, and priority skills.

How tools fit the loop

  1. Read Careers, Passions, and Skills.
  2. Optionally consult tier lists.
  3. Open the Build Planner and lock a package.
  4. Play via How to play and Antibes walkthrough.
  5. Return after Mimata to edit the plan for run two.

What tools are not

They are not official Weather Factory balance sheets. They are not combat DPS calculators. They do not replace Footnotes, crafts, or Vincent recruitment. They reduce reload amnesia when Antibes’ thousand-choice density hits.

Suggested first plans

Copy a starter build into the planner verbatim on run one. On run two, change one axis only—Passion or skill order—so contrasts stay legible. Physician Compassion Dignity and Writer Whimsy Sophistication remain the gentlest teachers.

Future tools

As the full game opens more regions, planners may grow fields for companions and regional outfits. For now the demo vocabulary is enough: four careers, named Passions, sixteen skills, Vincent yes/no. Track patch changes via Demo status.

Builds for prose planning, Systems for verbs, Guides for execution, Wiki links for official sources.

Tooling philosophy

Fan tools should shorten setup, not automate discovery. The Build Planner captures theses; it does not reveal Nenah. If we add tools later, they will follow the same rule. Use official storefronts for patches—tools never replace Updates.

Habit pairing

Open Tools beside Builds when starting a session; close Tools once the thesis is written so you can inhabit Antibes without spreadsheet brain. After Mimata, reopen Tools and edit honestly.

Minimal tool stack

Build Planner + Complete demo checklist + official Steam page. Everything else is optional reading. If your desktop is thirty guides deep, you are stalling. Tools hub exists to shrink that pile.

After 1.0

When full release lands, expect planner fields for regions and companions. Until then, refuse fake fields. Demo vocabulary is already rich enough to exhaust.

Five-minute setup

Open Build Planner, pick Physician or Writer starter, copy three skills, start demo, close this hub. That is correct tool use. Rereading Tools for an hour is incorrect tool use. Return after Mimata.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers drawn from the demo and official notes.

Is the Build Planner required?

No, but it helps when replaying Careers back-to-back.

Does it sync with the game?

No—it is a wiki-side notepad/widget, not a game mod.

Can I plan full-game companions?

Focus on demo fields now; Chaima and Corso arrive later.

Where do I learn the options listed?

Builds and Tier List hubs explain every Career, Passion, and skill named in the planner.
