In phase 3, some sort of map creator? I've been searching for a good one for years with no luck.
I too have been searching for a good map maker I recently found Inkarnate which has helped me realize my world map but it doesn't have as many features as I'd like, for example I can't use it to make dungeons it really only works for world maps.

Hey there everyone, BadEye has posted a Campaign Management - Features Wish List where you can post your ideas for improving the Campaign Management tools in D&D Beyond.

A map editor would be amazing, and a button to export the map as a .png so I can import the map into Roll20 (since their map editor is not that good).
I created map-making software called MapForge that's intended to provide a much better and faster mapping environment than virtual tabletop apps offer, plus a wealth of content Add-Ons for it, to cover various genres and mapping styles (11 of these content Add-Ons are free). The software itself can even be used for free, if you only need low resolution output (e.g. FG2 users). It can export to PNG, JPG, BMP, or TIFF (best for printing).
I have real good results with my drawing program for my art work Clip Studio . I took the plunge to get MapForge and a couple add ons and have been having a very very difficult time getting it to work. After a couple days i finally found you have to email for a code and multiple steps with dead html links makes it fun for someone. I'm not trying to make my posts negative in any way its just my experience so far not fun. hopefully if i can get it stable enough and not kicking error codes I can compare my two map making tools I have access to I really like my Clip studio because I can Import any map and make a dungeon fog over anything on my map system as the night unfolds.

Yes please!
I use inkarnate as well and agree fully it is awesome for world maps but, doesn't have any dungeon building functions which is a shame.
