Desk Crawler on TRMNL
Getting started
- Install Desk Crawler from the TRMNL plugin marketplace and choose Install.
- Sign in to Desk Crawler, pick a public name and a hero name, and connect the installation.
- Back in TRMNL, click Save. Saving starts your hero's adventures from the next world tick.
- Add the plugin to a playlist, or to a mashup if you want your hero beside other plugins. All four layout sizes are supported.
How time works
The game world advances every 15 minutes whether or not your screen is on. Your TRMNL shows a snapshot and refreshes on its own schedule. Sleep Mode, slower refresh and other playlist items never reduce your hero's progress. Adventure times in the companion use your browser's local timezone.
If the screen looks old
- "Updates delayed" means the game service is running late. Nothing is lost and you don't need to do anything.
- If the companion website is current but the screen is not, check the plugin's refresh setting and playlist position in TRMNL.
- If you disconnected or uninstalled, install again from TRMNL. Your hero keeps all progress.
Disconnecting and removing
Disconnecting stops new screens for that installation. TRMNL may keep showing the last image until you remove the plugin from your playlist; we cannot erase an image already on your device.
