Assistant & director

Two kinds of help that know your project: an assistant you can talk to, and a director that can run a whole stage for you. Neither one spends your credits without you.

The assistant

Every plan step writes notes into your project. The assistant has read them all, so you can ask it about your own comic:

• Who is in this panel?
• Why was this shot dropped?
• What happens on page 12?

It can also set up the next step for you, with the files and settings already filled in. You still press Run. It remembers what you asked about each file, so a talk about one panel stays with that panel.

Asking costs a few credits.

The director

Point the director at a stage, or at several stages, and it does the work you would do by hand: look at the stage, pick the next step, run it, check the result, and go on until the stage is done.

You keep control with three settings:

Scope

Which stages it may walk through. Turn on gates to make it stop and wait at the end of each stage so you can look.

Scale

How many files each step takes. Three panels first, two hundred later.

Resume

Skip the files an earlier run already finished.

You can pause, continue or stop at any time. Stop also cancels the job that is running. If you close the page, the run carries on and is still there when you come back.

Run a step again with a note

When a plan step finds a problem in a file — a hole filled badly, a border still in the picture — the assistant can run the step that made it again, with a note about the problem. It is the same fix you would type, typed for you. It stops at a spending limit you set.

What it costs

Talking to the assistant costs a few credits. A director run costs exactly what the steps would cost if you ran them yourself. Keep the scale small to keep the cost small.
